Family 80%

Collaborative family law is an alternative to traditional family law; it is less expensive, more private, keeps control of the outcome with the family/couple and is less destructive to children. It is a way to resolve disputes respectfully--without going to court.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

The worst

She makes shady agreements with the other party without consulting her own clients first. Then when called up on this she stops answering mails. Just awful experience would not recommend.

Although I do not agree with the comments made, I am very upset to know that this client is dissatisfied with my representation.

Very Satisfied

Handled a collaborative divorce for me. Very compassionate person and positive experience in a situation that can be very emotional and stressful. If divorce has to be, she would be the one I would recommend along with the collaborative process.

Family matters?! Look no further....

Eventually we all need an attorney to represent whatever our legal needs are. I was fortunate to have found Carolann to represent me in a sensitive family matter. She was professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and most importantly, TRUSTWORHY. You need someone like Carolann to be fair, focused, and ... detail oriented in order to get the best results possible... Never missed a beat... I hope I never need an attorney again, But if I ever do, I don't have to look any further. Thank you Carolann....

I worked with Carolann, who was attentive, patient and professional. She helped me understand all the details of my case. She was very knowledgeable, confident and helpful throughout the whole process. I will refer to all of my friends, clients and associates. Thank you!
