Guardianship 34%

When a person is too young to make decisions or is incapacitated and can no longer care for their own interests, guardian law allows the court to appoint someone to make legal and welfare decisions for them. A legal guardian may be appointed as a limited decision-maker or an all-purpose decision-maker. For example, children whose parents are divorcing often have limited legal guardians help decide custody issues.

Probate 33%

Probate is the legal process used to carry out a person's will after their death; an attorney advises you on how to perform the steps in the process. In general, once you have identified and collected the dead person's belongings, including money, property, and assets, you pay the person's debts and taxes. Once all debts have been paid, you distribute their money and property according to the language of the will.

Ms. Simmons

Carrie helped me with my family law issue and the paternity of my child's father. She used positive resolution skills and kind words to get a great result for the entire family.

Highly Recommended... Carrie McClain represented us in a temporary custody hearing. Professional handling of information, interviews and appointment times. We are very pleased with her as our family law attorney.

Wonderful Person and Great Attorney

We hired Carrie to represent us in a Marchman Act for our 27-year-old daughter. Carrie was great. She understood the emotional challenges of this type of legal matter, and she also knew the legal actions that were needed. Our case took many unpredictable twists and turns; but Carrier was always th...ere. We had to file three Emergency Motions - and she did so on short notice and in a timely manner. I believe Carrie has the perfect blend of understanding the human side of each case; and yet being an advocate for her client and vehemently representing them. I am a licensed attorney in another state, so I believe I have a unique perspective in evaluating Carrie both as a client, and also as a legal colleague. I would highly recommend her.

Compassionate and knowledgeable

My father initially hired Mrs. McClain for a voluntary guardianship and passed away before it was completed. Mrs. McClain even met us in a location that was comfortable for my terminally ill father instead of her office. Mrs. McClain is handling the very unusual and difficult probate and has been co...mmunicating my responsibilities/duties and is quick to respond to questions. She has been compassionate during what has been a very emotional time. Her knowledge of probate law has been quite obvious. I would be lost navigating all of the estate and probate issues without her help and guidance. I highly recommend her.
