I care about my clients. When a client thanks me at the end of their case, it makes me feel like I did a good job and that my client is happy. This is why I am an attorney.
I focus on family law and personal injury: divorce, child support, visitation and custody; car accidents and slip and falls. My office also does real estate closings and wills and probate work.
I am a retired U.S. Navy, Judge Advocate General Corps Commander (O-5). I have been practicing law since 1985, and have been here in Norwich, Connecticut since 2002.
We do not chage for initial office consultations. If you have a legal issue and feel you may need the assistance of an attorney, pleaes feel free to call me.
Thank you.

Knowledgeable yet compassionate and personable
I was a client of Mr. Cartier for a lawsuit concerning my business. He was knowledgeable when it came to Native Peoples Law but no only was he knowledgeable, he and his staff were making sure that they kept me abreast of new developments throughout the long litigation. There were times when I felt ...
