Jodie A Caruolo

I was in the middle of a very ugly divorce involving custody of my 2 young children. I had a lawyer who never responded to my questions, seemed to give me the runaround and in the end, just wasnt doing what I asked. I then found Jodie. Jodie was whom I should have hired in the beginning. She was ...extremely responsive to all my questions, either thru emails , texts or phone calls. She explained to me the legalssystem in a way I could understand. I felt she was always very honest with me. In the end, I walked away with what I wanted.

I saw Ms. Caruolo for a divorce consultation. First, she was most accommodating in terms of scheduling a consult around MY work schedule. She was on time (actually slightly early) for our appt and spent over an hour with me and she did not once look or act as tho she wanted to hurry this up and get... out of there--it was an evening appt. She was knowledgeable, straightforward, did not sugar coat things and did not beat around the bush. She layed out my financial scenerio in terms of what I can and should expect for a divorce settlement. I went into this meeting with very specific questions regarding RI divorce laws and she answered everyone of them. She did not charge for the consult even tho I offered to pay because I got more information than I would have from a generalized consult (because I had a list of specific questions). Jodie was thorough and professional AND personable. She was emphathic and understanding, not just a lawyer with dollar signs in her eyes. It was a most informative meeting for me and although I am not yet ready to move forward with a d ivorce, when and if I do, I will absolutely use Jodie as my attorney. Actually, I will go to her first if I need an attorney for anything. And, based on this one meeting, I will absolutely recommend her to anyone who asks me if I know of any good attorneys.

Jodie is a great attorney. I was quite unfarmilliar with the divorce process and she was able to take care of everything for me. Most importantly it was VERY stress free for myself. In a situation where I felt like I couldn't communicate with or trust others, she was able to keep me reassured that ev...erything would be fine.
