The Best of The Best

I was facing charges that carry serious mandatory minimum sentences, we're talking up to 10 years in prison. Cara was extremely communicative, kind, knowledgeable, and respectful throughout the entire process. Any questions that my family or I had were answered and our concerns were addressed. Within... the first day of mitigation with the state, after being presented with the defensive arguments and evidence from Cara, I went from facing 10 years to 1. After a final deliberation with the state a deal was made for no jail time and a less severe felony sentence. I'm now on probation and am able to take the next steps to move forward with my life as a free man! I'm beyond grateful and satisfied with the quality representation that Cara provided me. I'm certainly not planning to ever have to be in court again but, if I ever find myself in a tough spot I would have Cara represent me again.

Outstanding Work Ethic!

Cara was an exceptional lawyer! She made me feel more at ease throughout the entire process. She was attentive and asked a lot of questions to ensure she knew the full details to help me the best she could. She communicated with me thoroughly to ensure I felt secure and confident in her abilities to ...help me. She was very sweet and reassuring. And definitely help me more than I could've imagined to get the best possible outcome for my case. She took the necessary time to really study the facts to ensure she understood what she was fighting for. She went above and beyond to even look up information from other sources to help the case. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer!

The absolute BEST in the business!

When I found myself in the scariest moment of my life facing criminal charges I was referred to Attorney Cavallari. From the very first phone call, I felt at ease and I knew she was not going to let me get railroaded by the judicial system. From being under investigation to months later being arreste...d and then going through the judicial proceedings, Cara made sure she was by my side every step of the way. My case was not only lengthy (mostly in part of the COVID pandemic) but it was very complex. Cara worked every single day on my case, even when it was being continued over and over. She consulted with the best experts and communicated with me constantly. Not only was Cara passionate about my case but she truly believed in me as a person! Every time I met with Cara, I felt we were as prepared as we could be for the next steps in this terrifying process. She assured me when we were not happy with the states first offer that she was not done fighting. She fought until the offer was reduced to something we found acceptable. Although Cara was fully prepared to take my case to trial if I chose to go that route, I ultimately decided to take a plea deal. I know that I received the most lenient sentence because of Cara’s determination and expertise. I was facing a very long term of incarceration and because of Attorney Cavallari I was only sentenced to a few months. After my sentencing, Cara contacted me every single week that I was incarcerated and worked directly with the prison to have me released early. She continued fighting even after my sentence was handed down!!! Attorney Cavallari also kept in constant communication with my son and my family when I was incarcerated. She answered all of their questions and concerns, explained to them what the next steps would look like and helped put their minds at ease. Beyond that, Cara has also offered to communicate with any future employer to help me obtain employment again and put this nightmare behind me. I will be using Cara when it comes time to apply for a pardon and I would recommend her services to anyone who finds themselves needing legal counsel. She is truly the best in the business!!!!! I wish I could give her 100 stars. My family and I are eternally grateful for her support and hard work. She is not only the best attorney but she is an amazing person who truly believes in her clients.

Amazing job

I would like to start off by saying I am forever grateful to Cara for everything she has done. I walked into her office about 10 months ago seeking a full pardon from the state of Connecticut she took on my case walked me through every step it was gonna take to make this happen. She reassured me thro...ughout the whole process that this was going to work and that I was deserving of this pardon. Today I was granted an absolute pardon by the state of Connecticut I could not have done it without her help myself and my family will be forever grateful

Cara is a BEAST

Minutes after hiring Cara to be my lawyer after a life threatening motorcycle accident she made me feel like family from the very beginning. She went above and beyond with succeeding all of my expectations. She had excellent communication throughout every step of the way which was an amazing feeling.... I trusted her 110 percent and it really was such an easy non stressful process. Everything she said she delivered on and I feel no need to ever go to anyone else. Good luck trying to find anyone more on top of their game, you won’t!
