This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Top Notch

I brought on Attorney Carey when no one else wanted to take my case. I was in a bind, but he was very understanding. I wanted to rush the process, but he had to explain the due process step by step. If I had not had him by my side, my case would still be in tandem. He is an excellent attorney with ye...ars of credentials. I would not recommend anyone else facing allegations and unfounded reasoning.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
