Review W. Carter

Excellent Service

Posted by

Mr. Carter was an absolute pleasure to work with. Although we had a set idea of what to expect during my husband's hearing the result was completely the opposite. Instead of my husband having to spend time in jail, Mitch was able to get the same sentence in community service instead. We cannot ever express our appreciation and gratitude to him.

Mitch Carter is a well-respected member of the Chattanooga bar. I see he and his partner Brian O'Shaughnessy in court regularly. They are diligent, thorough, and always prepared.
