Carolyn Elizabeth Wagner

I had the privilege of working with Carolyn Wagner during an incredibly challenging period involving divorce and custody matters. From the very beginning, Carolyn demonstrated the highest level of professionalism, availability, and dedication. She was not only responsive and thorough, but also deeply... compassionate and honest throughout the entire process. Unlike many attorneys who treat clients as just another case file, Carolyn made me feel genuinely supported—like I had a true advocate who cared about my family. Her concern for my child’s well-being was evident in every interaction, and her guidance was both strategic and empathetic. Carolyn Wagner is more than just a skilled attorney—she’s someone you want in your corner when life gets difficult. Her integrity, warmth, and unwavering commitment make her an exceptional legal professional and a remarkable human being.

Carolyn Wagner represented me during an unusually difficult divorce. My ex cycled through four separate attorneys between the divorce, child custody and financial disputes. She was essentially responsible for bring each of these new players up to speed with what had already transpired. I am certain t...hat it was frustrating for her. Yet she never wavered. She was a picture of professionalism, kept me continually informed, never hesitated to answer my questions, and always returned my calls promptly. I was made to feel that my problems were her problems as well. She showed empathy and a personal interest in my case. I am not an easy person to impress. She impressed me. I will continue to use her for any future legal needs and have happily recommended her to my closest friends and family.

Carolyn made a very difficult process much easier. She gave me great advice about my kids and the divorce from our very first conversation. She told me, "Even if you do not hire me, do this first." She truly wanted what was best for my entire family. Going through a divorce was one of the most diffic...ult things that I have ever had to do and she helped me every step of the way. I was grateful to have her on my side and in my corner.

Carolyn is a no nonsense professional who is passionate for justice. She represented me in my duval case- I reside in California. Lots of email, a few video chats, and 1 in personal meeting before the judge. She is the second lawyer we had to retain on this issue and in one day she discovered ...a handful of things the other lawyer missed. Carolyn: *cares about dads and our rights. mostly, what’s best for the child *does not leave any concern unturned *responds to correspondence in record time. always available *did not have extravagant fees beefing up the balance. It was straight forward and we were charged only for time spent on our case. litigation is pricey, but she is worth every penny! *honest. She will give you sound legal guidance and prepare you for court Since retaining her. We enjoyed long distance timeshare for the first time in 11 years. My name is on the birth certificate. I got my daughters social. I am in contact with her teachers. I got her medical records. And child support is accurately calculated now so I’m not overpaying anymore. Carolyn is a master at what she does. You will not regret hiring her. She is human. She is compassionate. Her only flaw is that she likes FSU :p go gators! Even as long football rivals, I knew she was on my side when it mattered most. My previous lawyer told me I was a dead beat and should take whatever time I can get with my daughter. What was offered then was a fraction of what I am entitled to but I didn’t know any better. Not so with Carolyn. She taught me my rights. She identified that I was being alienated as a father. She heard my story. Commended my efforts. And helped me be the father I have always been in my heart, in reality. My daughters life is better thanks to the work of Carolyn. Now she has both parents. Fathers matter. Fathers have rights. Fathers deserve to be involved too. I’ve never been one to handle tons of emails so she worked directly with my wife and honored our family structure and involved my daughters step-mom, my wife, in every way she could. We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. You either pay excess child support to a dishonest woman for ten years, or you hire a lawyer one time to fix issues that only the judge can, for a lifetime. The decision was simple for us. my unreasonable ex left me no other choice. I’m so thankful Carolyn was there for us in our darkest hour. I hope I don’t need her again, but if I do, she better not retire anytime soon.

After researching several options to try adopt an infant in Northern Florida we became resigned to the idea that we simply could not afford to adopt a child. Ms. Wagner was recommended to us by a friend from our church. We found her to be compassionate, thorough and dedicated to helping us complete t...he adoption of our three year old son. Without requiring us to pay any consultation or wait list fee, Carolyn took the time to ensure we understood the adoption process, she referred us to our home study provider and she helped us with the creation of our profile book meant to give to birth moms considering adoption an understanding of our family and of the kind of life her baby would have if she choose to place with us. We appreciate the emphasis Carolyn places on caring for the emotional needs of the birth parents who work with her in addition to ensuring they are safe and supported during their pregnancy. . We would recommend that anyone considering placing a child for adoption or wishing to become an adoptive parent to contact Ms. Wagner.
