She is exceptional!

To say my divorce was complicated, would be an understatement. Carol Baskin and her legal team guided me through every rough, rocky and sometimes terrifying step of the way. With years of legal and personal knowledge she was able to protect me when I couldn't protect myself. During the darkest pa...rts of many Court Hearings, TPO Hearings , Contempt Hearings, Carol was there with perfect legal advice and effortlessly protected me when I needed it most. I am forever grateful for her. She is nothing less than meticulous when preparing for your case, however you are not just a case number to her. She takes the time to get to know you personally and what needs you and your family have. And with that in mind offers expert advice along the way. If you are looking for a Family Law attorney, complicated case or amicable, I cannot recommend Carol Baskin highly enough!

Divorce Attorney

In stereotypical fashion, my 20-year marriage devolved over time - he got lost in his work and I made our children top priority. No one's fault, just fell out of love, but I'm a hopeful romantic, believing that all Nora Ephron movies are possibilities, so I filed for divorce. I'm the meek one, not p...rone to such actions, and I found Carol, a brace for my backbone. She's filled many roles during this process and made it less daunting. Fortunately, my divorce is amicable, but I'm so glad Carol and her amazing support staff - Marsha, Laura and Katherine - are in my corner. Their compassion and knowledge are unparalleled and exactly what I needed!

Excellent Family Law Attorney

Carol Baskin is one of the most knowledgeable and pro-active family law practioner's in the state of Georgia. Whenever I run into contempt issues with my ex husband I know who to contact! I wish I used her for my divorce! She is thorough, no nonsense, and to the point. From what I gather, Judges like... her and listen to her!! Even opposing counsel enjoy working with her, as I was before I retained her. She is a lawyer's lawyer! Please call her today!

Great attorney

I hired Carol to represent me in divorce and post divorce matters.She is both professional and caring to her clients.I had a contempt case to enforce a stipulation in my divorce decree.Carol uncovered information that proved to be fraudulent on my ex in court.Without this i do not believe we would ha...ve received the outcome we got..The opposing counsel never knew what hit him!!She is a straight shooter and her knowledge of the law is amazing!!If you are looking for representation on family issues you will be hard pressed to find any better than Carol!!

Run for your life

OMG..!!! Carol Baskin will turn what will be an amicable divorce into a world war. My ex and I began the divorcing process with a decent attitude about our separation. BY the time Baskin got finished we were fighting over everything in endless litigation. Worst part is, we had nothing to fight ove...r... The divorce took 4 years while the marriage was only 1.5 months.. He bill ended up being 38,000. And she loves to charge interest. Check her out on the Court Calendar in Fulton and Cobb. She will sue you for not being able to pay what she charges you. RUN!!!!! She will destroy you entire chance of developing any type reasonable family structure. It's all about the money to this nasty lady...
