Exceptional attorney!

Erik Carter is everything a great attorney should be! Extremely knowledgeable, friendly, fights for his clients and keeps you informed every step of the way. If you need legal help, you need to call him - he’s amazing!!

Make him your 1st call for family law

I consulted with Mr. Carter for the first time via phone after posting a question on AVVO and knew instantly he was the right attorney for my family law case with my narcissist ex. It was VERY important to me that whoever I hired was familiar with narcissism as narcissists are masters of manipulatio...n and can lie very convincingly. I retained him in October after an in person consultation in which it was almost like he knew my ex by his own description of what narcissists say and do. It was like he read my emails and texts from him and never actually had at that point! Not only was he was very knowledgeable, he was also very attentive and patient with my multiple phone calls and questions fueled by my anxiety over the case and protecting my child. He thoroughly prepared me for court and by day of, I was minimally anxious of what the results would be and confident in his ability to represent myself and my child. Not only was I granted what i asked for but also more! I can't possibly say enough good things about Mr. Carter! If you are looking for an excellent, knowledgeable, attentive, fair priced attorney in your family law case, he should be your first call! I imagine he'll end up being your only! Mr. Carter, thank you for being exactly the attorney i needed for me and my child and "thank you" will never be enough!

Awesome Attorney

I was going through a very long & bitter divorce. I had several attorneys before I found the right one! Mr. Carter understands family law & the legal system. He is well educated & worked with me as a "partner" rather than a 'client'! I felt I could contact him pretty much anytime. If it was after...-hours or if he was in court, I knew he'd call me back as soon as he was able. He answered my question(s) with sound advice & skill. It was unfortunate I had to meet Mr. Carter the way I did (e.g., divorce), but all in all, I am grateful I did. Mr. Carter will not only work for you, but he will work WITH you!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
