Attorney Fogarty was outstanding from start to finish. She showed incredible patience throughout the entire process, taking the time to explain every step clearly and making sure we always understood what was happening. Her attention to detail and consistent follow‑up gave us confidence during a very stressful time.What stood out most was her calming presence. Even when the situation felt overwhelming, she remained steady, reassuring, and focused. She balanced a positive attitude with complete honesty, keeping us grounded while still giving us hope. That combination made all the difference.Thanks to her hard work and dedication, we achieved a very positive outcome. I’m truly grateful for her professionalism, compassion, and commitment. I highly recommend Attorney Fogarty to anyone who needs strong, thoughtful, and reliable representation.

Hands down Fogarty law is one of the top firms in the area. Courtney fights for her clients the way she would her own children and if you're aParent you know just how protective you would be had your child's safety or freedom been jeopardized. She not only fights tooth and nail for her clients but she listens to them and more importantly supports them which is huge for an individual feeling alone and oppressed by a machine as large as the government. Not only does she have a beautiful aura inside and out but upon initial conversation you can tell she's genuine; she's willing to go the extra mile and do the work most attorneys attempt to avoid. Her pricing is beyond fair and she's relatable. She makes you feel comfortable while assuring you no matter the odds she is goi g to even them in your favor. Her work ethos is phenomenal and she walks into that courtroom friendly to no one but her client, which you would seem impossible due to her wonderful smile and soft features but I assure you soft she is not. If your freedom or a loved ones is in jeopardy and you're unsure which attorney to reach out to or even if you already believe you have a good attorney go Fogarty Law and get you a great one!!! I promise you won't be let down. I was facing my fifth gun charged and managed, well, she managed to get the case thrown out due to her strong work ethics and relentless tactics. I promise I couldn't say enough about this law firm that would serve it in the manner it served me. I got my life back and had it not had been for the right attorney I may not have been fortunate enough to relay this message. If the law is after you or you have any open cases especially weapons charges I promise go Fogarty and I can all but guarantee you'll be going home!!!

I can’t say enough great things about Courtney. For over eight months, she stood by us with patience, professionalism, and genuine care. She took the time to explain every step of the process in a way we could truly understand, never rushing us or making us feel like our questions were a burden.What really stood out was how thorough and detailed she was—she made sure we knew exactly what was happening, what to expect next, and what our options were at every stage. Her communication was always clear, honest, and reassuring, which made an overwhelming situation so much easier to handle.We felt supported, informed, and truly cared for from beginning to end. If you’re looking for someone who not only knows the law but takes the time to make you feel confident and comfortable through the process, Courtney is the one you want. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did for us.Highly recommended.

I cannot express how truly grateful I am for Ms. Fogarty's preparation, representation, and dedication in helping me resolve my situation with the RMV. A close personal friend, who is also an attorney, advised me that Ms. Forgarty was the best person to assist me and they were right. I wish I could leave 100 stars.

My experience with Attorney Courtney Fogarty has been beyond amazing. Not only is she great at what she does, she has genuinely been an easy and wonderful person to speak with. She’s very knowledgeable and took time to explain things to me. Attorney Fogarty and her paralegal Casey made sure to make me feel supported throughout the process and always quick to respond. You can tell they truly care about the case taken on. I would without a doubt recommend her and her team to anyone in need.

When the court asked me if i wanted to self represent or if i wanted to have a public defendant, I thought my record was done for either ways. However over time I started to realize that maybe im not so unlucky, I got probation im very happy with these results

My case was open for over 2yrs. Once my case was assigned to Courtney Fogarty, it was dismissed with all charges dropped not long after. Not only is she straight to the point, she has the ability to make you feel like you have the best lawyer in the room representing you. Polite, knowledgeable, straightforward, replies quickly, answers all questions & boosts moral. Truly adding a positive experience to my unfortunate “situation” within the court system. Make the right decision & let Fogarty Law represent YOU!!

Attorney Fogarty gave me respect, companion, dignity and believing in myself again. I was in a domestic abuse situation hence being charged after null reasoning. Attorney Fogarty gave me self worth after freeing me from false charges. I suggest that her knowledge in criminal law that you reach out to her, with her commitment and perseverance she will bring justice.

Corey Lorenco

02:45 14 Sep 22

Courtney’s persistence is exactly what you need when you need legal advice or counsel. She sets up a playbook that gives you the best result. she is accessible at all hours, she follows up and she even gave professional courtesy to the other party a strategy that I felt reinforces her integrity, her confidence in her work and further by letting the other party know that she is coming in prepared and ready to break down whatever she may need to and/or cross examination. Her integrity is why you will excel with her as an ally and asset as your counsel. She isn’t going to tell you what you want to hear, she doesn’t overpromise and she doesn’t underdeliver. Her relentless attribute and intelligence is why she is well respected and admirable amongst her peers, colleagues, judges and the like. Thank you Courtney
