Do NOT hire this attorney

After I had retained her in my custody case - $5,000 and 6 months later but the case was not resolved and did not even move forward. The necessary motions were never filed in court but invoiced anyways. High and excessive billing but no work to show for it. Just stay away and find a decent and ethi...cal attorney.

Rude and belittling

Called her about a custody situation. She was very unfriendly, unempathetic and belittling. Seemed to think I should know the law, yet why then would i be calling a lawyer.

Excellent Divorce Lawyer!

Carolyn is easy to reach and really knows her stuff. Her and her staff are always on top of things, and she pays incredible attention to details. Never rushes conversations and focuses on what matters and what's going to yield results! Highly recommended!

Excellent Attorney

Carolyn came into my life when I had hit rock bottom due to the custody battle I had over my teen son. My ex sprung a whole list of allegations on me and I was a mess. Carolyn was professional, empathetic, an active listener and was able to think on her feet always keeping my best interest in the fo...refront of her actions. She truly is my guardian angel. She is well connected with her peers and our magistrate had a lot of respect for her as well. She helped me navigate the custody case and was able to build consensus and get the case wrapped up faster than I ever imagined. I am forever grateful to her for giving me back my peace of mind.

Outstanding representation and valued ally

I was married to a narcissist for 14 years. After 14 years of emotional, mental and physical abuse, it finally occurred to me that my marriage just wasn't going to work. My wife used fear, control and threats to get what she wanted and the thought of having to endure a divorce was nearly overwhelmi...ng. For 2 years now, Carolyn has done an excellent job of shielding me from my wife's tactics while we have attempted to negotiate a settlement. It's been comforting to be able to say "talk to my attorney" when my wife tries to manipulate me into getting what she wants. Carolyn has been patient with and supportive of me when I would be in a near panic because of a threat I would receive from my wife if I did not give her what she wanted. Carolyn has maintained a thoroughly professional demeanor in the face of my wife's outrageous written attacks against her. When it became apparent that my wife was not going to negotiate with us I was forced to file for divorce. Carolyn has guided me as to what I should and I should not do to keep my case in the best shape. I am grateful to have had Carolyn as my attorney in this difficult time.
