Caitlin Foley is a highly skilled family attorney and advocates passionately for her clients during some of the most emotional times of their lives. Her dedication to family law and domestic litigation has earned her an empathetic and supportive reputation in the field. Caitlin focuses her family practice on divorce, custody, support, adoption, and mediation. She is a certified mediator with the American Council of Mediators and founded the mediation practice at her previous firm.
Caitlin's journey to becoming a family attorney began at the University of Alabama, where she earned her undergraduate degree in Political Science. During her time there, she spent a year studying abroad at the Universidad de Salamanca in Spain, where she taught English to school children and gained valuable insight into different cultures and perspectives.
After completing her undergraduate degree, Caitlin attended Villanova University's Charles Widger School of Law. While in law school, Caitlin interned with Embrace Families (formally known as Community Based Care of Central Florida), where she focused on child welfare and foster youth issues, conducting research on the unique issues affecting foster youth, and participating in initiatives to improve the foster care system. She was also active in the Villanova Law Pro Bono Society and the Coalition Advocating for Human Rights and Dignity, where she developed a strong sense of social justice and a commitment to helping others.
Caitlin worked as a student attorney at the Villanova Federal Tax Clinic, where she represented low-income taxpayers in front of the United States Tax Court and found her passion for litigation.
Caitlin's dedication to family law and domestic litigation continued after law school, and she joined a high-volume Chester County law office to work in their family law department. Caitlin’s experience in domestic litigation encompasses everything from no-fault, no asset divorce to highly contested emergency motions and custody trials.
In addition to her work at High Swartz, Caitlin is a Board Member of the Doris Jonas Freed American Inn of Court, where she collaborates with other attorneys to stay up-to-date on the latest legal issues and developments, and is an active member of the Montgomery County Bar Association.
Caitlin is admitted to practice in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. She primarily works with clients in the Philadelphia suburbs, including Montgomery , Delaware, Bucks, and Chester Counties. Her dedication to her clients and her community make her an invaluable asset to our firm.
