Custody matter

Emily was knowledgeable of the court laws and her assistant was great at keeping me up to date on the proceedings of my case. J

A Difficult Case

I hired Emily in a child custody case and she was excellent. My ex-husband is difficult and unbending and it was all about him. Emily met with my daughter and explained the process and put her mind at ease. I had made a huge mistake but had turned my life around and Emily did not judge me. She an...d her assistant kept me up to date and informed. I won my case without my daughter having to go to court. I would recommend Emily and would use her again if necessary.

Excellent choice

Emily Carr is an excellent choice for legal representation. She is very knowledgeable and her staff is courteous as well as efficient. I have recommended her to others and they have been equally pleased.

Fast Closure

Emily handled a case for me which had been ongoing with other legal assistance for 4 years. She got the case prepared and had a hearing scheduled within 1 month of my meeting with her. The case was completely settled within 2 months in my favor. It was such a relief to be able to trust what she was t...elling me and then to see the results so quickly! Following the closure of the case, I received all necessary court documents from her office along with her assurance that all related issues were fully settled. Very clear and professional communication throughout the entire process.

Highly recommended!

Emily represented me in a custody case. The case was being decided in Georgia and I live in South Carolina. I only had to visit Emily's office on two occasions to sign papers. Everything else was handled by email and phone. This was a huge help and kept me from having to ask off work. Emily and ...her staff went above and beyond to settle this in a way that was best for my son and for us as a family. She was able to settle the case without my 14 year old son appearing in court and I didn't have to communicate with my exhusband at all, as Emily handled all communications, which was a HUGE relief for all of us! She and her staff kept me up to date at all times and was always available to answer any questions I had. I would highly recommend Emily Carr!

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.
