This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Horrible

Hired him! Kept telling him to go to court to fight for us. He kept saying he was, he was!! Well he didn’t. But set there while changing places of employment and just dwindled all the retainer fee. Played pow wow with the other lawyer. End result he done nothing for us , absolutely nothing!

Client Review For Jeff Carter, Esq.

Mr. Carter was consulted for title review and assessment of an existing real property whereby the property owner was excluded and denied membership privelages conveyed with the property. Mr. Carter was subsequently hired as plaintiffs representation for litigation. Mr. Carter successfully resol...ved the matter in favor of plaintiff. The case was complicated, difficult to dissect with multiple defendants. Ultra professional, most attentive, excellent steward, and commanding in the court room.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Carter is exceptionally well versed in the areas of business and corporate law. His attention to detail and ability to communicate effectively is both efficient and eloquent, thus authoring arguments that stay on point and drive home compelling conclusions that are difficult, at best, to rebut. ... Further, Mr. Carter is a very giving listener that allows his client the freedom to contribute and opine throughout the process without any condescension, bias, or judgment. HIs sincerity and genuine concern for his client's needs and goals are clearly illustrated by incorporating every relevant angle of an argument into a case while keeping his points focused and consistent. In short, Mr. Carter's finest quality is respect for his client and the rare ability to empathetically engage an individual while maintaining an objective and calculated perspective.

Review of Attorney Carter

Mr. Carter is a true professional, and works at one of our community's most respected law firms. He is personable, treating individuals as such, not simply another case file. But make no mistake about it, he also is very strong in the Courtroom when representing his clients.
