Don't say anything if you can't say something nice...
I have held off on reviewing Ms Carr for sometime to allow my feelings to mature...I used her for 2 cases that were interrelated. Her knowledge of the law seemed adequate. I was not provided detailed billing (after divorce when I questioned additional amount due, I got a bunch of separate time shee...
Dr. Copeland, I attempted to resolve this issue via phone call to you but to date I have not received a call back. I am quite surprised that you would give me a one-star rating considering the following: You hired me to represent you in a Divorce case which quickly became highly contested. I represented you for approximately two years in which we had multiple court hearings and conferences with the Court, extensive discovery including depositions, at least two mediations and we settled on a Friday prior to a Monday Jury trial after preparing for your trial for close to two months which entailed many hours of preparation time. You were confused about the billing and we cleared up and/or removed any billing that was inaccurate. After the Divorce, you hired me for a second time for a contempt case. You had prepared the original Motion and appeared in Court on your own. You hired me to help you after instructed by the Court to hire an Attorney. I prepared a completely new Motion for Contempt and set a new Court date. I consulted with you on the phone and in person on several occasions and then had a hearing. You had made a request of adding additional Defendants to this matter that I did not believe was legally appropriate for this Motion since it stemmed from a Divorce. I prepared and sent Demand Letters to other individuals including your former spouse. During the hearing on the contempt issue, we presented evidence to the Court and you were awarded everything that you had requested. On top of winning, you were also awarded $5000.00 in Attorney fees which covered my entire retainer. You were able to reduce that amount from a payment that you were to make to your former wife. Therefore, you were completely reimbursed your entire Attorney fees. When you requested a copy of the Judgment, I promptly emailed it to you even though I believed that my assistant had mailed it to you. You had already reviewed the Judgment after I had prepared it and prior to submitting it to the Court. You wanted to pursue litigation against several third parties in an area of law that I personally do not practice. (Real Estate) I had previously informed you that I do not practice in that area of law and in an email I told you that if you wanted to pursue litigation, another Attorney in our firm would be handling the case. This Attorney helped with some of the complex real estate issue during your Divorce and you previously had a professional relationship with him. At no point did I “fire” you as a client. I’m sorry that you are upset, however, considering you were pleased with my initial representation, hired me a second time where you won on all counts and you were completely reimbursed, there is no justification for a one-star rating.

Emily Carr
