Kayleigh is by far the best! I met with her after I had met with 4 different lawyers and from the moment of consultation to the divorce she guided me through everything. She reassured me on different problems I had arise throughout this process. She answered every single one of my questions in ways that I understood and I felt confident going into this. She also told me when I was being unreasonable, and helped me put my mind on track and the end goal. Even while I was states away she took all the stress off of me for my breech of contract, and filing for divorce.

After running into my first lawsuit due to a divorce I was seeking help from Cape Fear Family law. I ended up moving forward with Waneta Ellis and her team. This connection started of strong but with me continuing having to do my own homework to make sure no mistakes were made. Unfortunately soon after, it seemed to have become the familiar ponce sceem between the hired lawyer and the one from the opposing party sucking their clients dry and drive them to desparacy by stalling the complete case by not sending and or requesting certain critical info and therefore speeding up the process. As I understand there is no role model case, but there should have been a basic explanation of how things work in general as everything seemed very normal to Waneta. Even though Waneta seemed knowledgeable, she is as much as a sales shark trying to expend her services by asking for more money while already being hired. Maybe because text messages didn't make enough money, she was extremely slow in her responses with text messages during most of the process and impossible to reach by phone for a quick comforting answer unless completely scheduled ahead with a high bill attached! When my frustrations reached a boiling point in court due to a court agreement pushed by the judge and lawyers, she was happily shaking the hand of the opposing parties lawyer saying it was a pleasure working with him! While it turned out quickly it would only be me bleeding in this case, that didn't feel good at all! So, to say it lightly I didn't have the greatest of experiences with her and her team.

I hired Cape Fear Family Law in May 2024. Marcus Tingling was assigned my case. The purpose was to modify a custody agreement. Marcus managed to file the motion and request discovery, but was slow in requesting a court date. The opposing party did request a court date in the meantime, and the case was moved to Florida. Marcus was not on time to meet before court, unprepared, and made no compelling argument for the case to remain in NC. This process, resulting in the case being closed in NC, cost $8k. This ultimately felt like a money grab. I would not recommend Cape Fear or Marcus Tingling for your case.

I recently utilized Cape Fear Family Law services for child custody and child support. I was putting it off for so long trying to manage the difficulty of co-parenting with someone unable to truly co-parent in a respectful way. Kayleigh being assigned to my case was truly a blessing. I had so many questions and would get confused about all the details at times and she was so patient, so communicative, and efficient in every way. I am grateful that I took a chance with Cape Fear Family Law. I would recommend them, and Kayleigh specifically, to anyone going through a difficult divorce or subsequent custody battle. Her services were worth every penny. Thank you so much Kayleigh!

Highly recommend. They are affordable and communicative. My lawyer was very informative and I liked their online platform we used to talk.

Ashley is a hands on attorney who is dedicated to her clients and will listen and provide guidance during the toughest times

Kayleigh and her team were so helpful and quick to respond! So glad I picked them to help with my separation/divorce!

I had court with Marcus tingling who was there to be my attorney looks like he wasn’t fit enough to be a attorney didn’t once argue for me or prove my evidence instead goes to the chambers with the judge and the other attorney come out tells me the judge had said it didn’t matter if I provided my evidence he already had his mind set and then told me he was writing up a form about certain things and then goes into the court room texts me to go sign I told him I needed to read then says no I already told you what it’s about and we had to go because it was the end of the day mislead me lied completely to me down right not professional if you need an attorney please do not pick this firm or if you do make sure it’s not MARCUS TINGLING because he will linger around just to get money but will not fight for you not professional!!!

this was by far the worse thing we could of done of how there lawyer seen a judge being bias and only heard one side and not another coming to me and my daughter that the judge heard one side and not the other wouldnt matter at this time the judge has his mind set i know this was completely wrong

Kayleigh and the whole team were wonderful to work with. They truly had my best interest at heart throughout the difficult divorce process. They were always prompt, efficient, effective, and responsive.

It’s difficult to begin to say how amazing Granger Benson and Cape Fear Family Law has been for me in the past 2 years. Granger has been a source of knowledge walking me through a very difficult part of my life. He has helped not just as an attorney but walked me through how to handle my life during divorce. Granger was able to organize all my finances ensuring that I receive my share of what was due me. He and others at Care Fear Family Law worked hard to show how the finances were acquired and why they should be divided with my best interests. Thank you, Granger and Cape Fear Family law, you have been a blessing.

I paid Attorney Marcus Tingling 5k for my divorce and child custody. Marcus Tingling did not show up to the divorce hearing and continued child custody hearing without my knowledge or consent. Also, He used up my retainer and withdrew from the case. Jessica Arthur who is the supervising attorney told me that notice of hearing does not come from the court but the other party which is false. All notice of hearing comes from the court. They are unprofessional and cause unnecessary confusion within the process of getting a divorce. I paid for travel expense for Marcus Tingling and the hearings were held via Webex being that my case was in another county.
