Waneta Ellis and the Cape Fear Family Law staff are an amazing, devoted, professional, and caring team. Also, as an active duty service member serving overseas, they seamlessly provided timely/accurate/sound legal counsel. Even through the challenges of various time zones/operating locations, telecommunicating, and COVID; I always felt that they had my best interest in mind and were always there for me. Finally, Waneta is dedicated, positively honest, astute at her craft, and I couldn't have asked for a better attorney. Thank you so much! - Ken

Words could never adequately convey how excellent Janet and her entire team are. Having to help my mother through a divorce, I was full of questions and short on answers as this is an experience I had never been through myself. From the first consultation with Janet, she put my mother and I at ease and made the entire process seamless and stress free. She went above and beyond by regularly calling/emailing me and keeping me updated on the current status, and even made suggestions we had never thought of based on our particular circumstances which ultimately resulted in a much better outcome. With many attorneys, there is always the pressure of being driven or blinded by money, while the clients are left behind as merely an afterthought. Not with Janet, as she always kept our best interests first and made us a priority. She could not have been more graceful with my mother, and I am forever indebted to her for that. Should you ever need representation in a field she specializes in, do yourself a favor and hire Janet. She is an absolute rockstar!

Matthew Geiger is an amazing attorney. The whole staff was very professional and helpful. They used my trust account very wisely. They solved my case with great results.

Adoption went through without any difficulties. A good value for money. Very receptive to our needs.

Cape Fear Family Law did a great job with my custody case. Specifically, Matthew Geiger did an outstanding job! He successfully defend an ex parte order filed against me during the holidays, and that saved my Christmas with my son. Over the years, I've witnessed a lot of other custody hearings before mine was heard. I've seen enough of those hearings to decipher the good from bad lawyers and Matt is the best I've seen in action thus far. I have never seen an attorney as tenacious and passionate in defending others as he is. From my experience with Cape Fear Family Law, they truly are a firm that will fight for you and not just represent to guide you. They are my Son and I's superhero!

Waneta Ellis was a tremendous help and always ready to assist me.

I used Waneta and her team for my child custody case and divorce. Communicate, professionalism, Directness, and simply laying everything on the table for me and continuously holding me accountable throughout the process. 10 stars!! I highly recommend Waneta for any family law services you may need! She and her team are incredible. The only thing I wish was different would've been to see her in action during the court process as my cases never went that far.

My experience with Cape Fear Family Law was through Matt Geiger attorney-at-law. Matt was very professional and patient guiding me through the process of restraining order, AOF and separation. It was not an easy journey, but Matt was by my side, the whole way through. Cape Fear Family Law uses a team approach which allowed me multiple resources for contact. I highly recommend both Matt and this firm for issues with family law.

Cape Fear Family Law made my divorce so seamless and easy. Janet and her team are all so professional, organized and pleasant to deal with. They had QUICK communication and also used a platform that was very user friendly to be able to communicate with the entire team. Not only that, but the entire team was up to date on my case so if I dealt with different people there was never miscommunication, everyone was on the same page. The entire time was also very sensitive but professional with dealing with this topic of divorce. They made me feel comfortable and like I was in good hands. I would recommend Cape Fear Family Law to anyone dealing with a divorce in NC. Thank you again to Cape Fear Family Law!

I was working with Waneta during my separation. Her and the staff was extremely patient and helpful during the process. Definitely recommend!
