Truly the Peoples Lawyer

I have had the pleasure of using the legal services of Mr. Carson for different personal needs. Each time Mr.Carson has provided me with exceptional representation. He has taken care to keep me informed on the legal process and required steps to obtain a favorable decision. I would recommend him to a...nyone seeking legal services as his ability to operate with high morality, and integrity is imperative in the legal field.

Quicker than I expected

I got immediate attention from Mr. Carson! This was important to me for the divorce because I wanted it to be over! He allowed me to vent a few moments and regroup my thoughts without judgement. I struggled mentally with the initial packet, but he sent encouragement my way and guided me. If I had que...stions or comments I could send a text and get a reasonable timely response. I was divorced within 50 days and his consistency helped with that. 10 stars ⭐️ if I can be honest! I’m happily divorced!

Wonderful attorney

Craig has worked on my child custody case and when I say he has been the most reasonable and down to earth attorney. Craig has helped me in ways I thought I couldn’t get through. He has been understanding, and helpful. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney.

Hired Mr. Carson for a divorce

3 years ago when I needed to finalize my separation from my now ex-wife, it was important that I got it done as quickly as possible without having to give up anything I wasn't willing to part with. When time was of the essence, Mr. Carson was always 1 step ahead of the game. He handled my divorce wi...th professionalism and integrity, giving me all the assurance I needed. He made sure I was treated with respect at all times and I came out of the ordeal with everything I needed in tact including parental rights and financial assets. My experience with Mr. Carson as my attorney was worth every penny and I wouldn't hesitate to use his services wherever they're applicable in any legal issues that might require attention in the future!

Very reliable lawyer

I hired him for my complicated child support case. He is very professional and like to spend time with you in discussing the case. You can feel his honesty. He is working for you not only as an attorney but also as a good friend. I would recommend him

Avvo Rating

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.
