BEST ATTORNEY

Attorney Carey helped me through a tough divorce. She is very passionate about her work and helped me win my case. She made me feel relaxed because I could trust her.

First lawyer experience and worst

Jane Carey handled my case in '07. I had all the faith in her that she would represent me with truth and fairness. Neither came from my case. Long behold, I could have done the same without her. Better yet would have gotten the same results if I didn't show up to court at all. Long behold. Here... it is 2015 and I'm still trying to correct Court errors, final order verbiage, Attorney overlooks and/or disregards etc from a very simple divorce case with children. Would not recommend to my Ex!!!!

Replied last February 20, 2015

The problem I have with these anonymous attacks is that there is no reference point. You are complaining now about a case from 2007. I literally have handled thousands of cases during my career and I have discovered that there are some clients who cannot be satisfied if the law does not coincide with their personal agenda. I invite anyone who has a complaint to report it to the Florida Bar for a more fair and balanced investigation. I have never been disciplined for my failure to adequately represent my clients. While my personality may be more informal than others, it in no way reflects the level of professionalism that I bring to each case. These negative reviews reflect less than 1 percent of my client list in over 30 years of practice.

Very hard working Atttorney

Attorney Carey, handled a divorce for me as guardian of my incapacitated mother. The first thing in which I noticed was the amount of time spent with her clients, this is unprecedented. Most lawyers charge for every phone call, every email, etc, which is not the case with attorney Carey. This lawyer... works on weekends while other attorneys are playing golf, which I found very accommodating to my busy schedule. Its also a family environment which made me feel very comfortable. Others have mentioned irrelevant family chatter, in my view when you are dealing with sensitive family matters, it helps to know that your attorney is a real person, and you are not just another client. I continue to have attorney Carey represent me regarding guardianship matters, and will not hesitate to recommend her to other clients, in need of a real honest hard working attorney.

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.
