Highly recommend

I would recommend Carl Lamb and his Associates to anyone. He and his staff have been so wonderful. Emily is so kind and helpful. His wife Angie is amazing and helped me a lot when I needed it. Thanks to all of them I am getting my daughter back home with me full time.

Incredibly knowledgeable and fair

Mr. Lamb took my consultation outside of business hours, which I think speaks volumes to his client commitment. He was incredibly knowledgeable of the unique matters I was experiencing with parenting time, listened intently to my story and asked pointed questions to get to the heart of the matter and... in the end offered multiple practical solutions to help me resolve the issues. Outstanding first impressions, and while dealing with these types of cases is not exactly a day at the park, I am looking forward to working with Mr. Lamb on my case.

Strong Family values

I never dreamed I would ever need a lawyer, but when I did Mr. Lamb was a blessing in disguise. I sent a request online to set up a consultation and very shortly not only had a response but was able to speak to Mr.Lamb. I thought my divorce case with children was going to be cut and dry. When things ...got very messy Carl walked me through every step. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was covered and the best interest of the children was always #1. Even after the case was over Mr. Lamb has continued to be available as needed and patiently answer all my questions. I would reccommend Carl Lamb for anyone needing legal advise or assistance.

High Standards, Values, Respectable, A 'Bull' That Gets It Done!

I obtained MR. LAMB to represent me in a Dissolution of Marriage (w/Child) Case in 2010. My Case involved a really complex situation, a mountain of variables, in which Mr. LAMB took on without hesitation. His Professionalism, Family Values, and Bullnosed-attention-to-detail approach sorted through th...e mess with momentum and never let up til conclusion of my Case. I have much respect for Mr. Lamb's Military and Occupational background, that I knew was the right Attorney for the job. MR. LAMB far exceeded my high expectations, going above and beyond his call, to prove my case. The conclusive results were a lifesaver for my son and I in which I have endless admiration to-no-end for. Justice was served and crushed the mountain of variables brought on by false, spun narrative against me, and manipulation tactics aimed at the system at my expense from the Divorce Petitioner, the present ex-wife, and seen through them. Justice was served. Mr. LAMB has my utmost respect for taking on my case without hesitation and pressing, finishing us out on top!!! Today, My son and I are very grateful that Mr. Lamb intervened and got this contrary, potentially life devastating, catastrophic detrimental, act posing against us stopped in it's tracks! That being said, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CARL PAUL LAMB FOR YOUR LEGAL ASSISTENCE NEEDS! MR. LAMB TAKES OUT THE COMPETITION.

Custody

Carl Lamb took time out of his busy day, twice, to council me on one of the most important issues of my life, custody of my children. He was straight to the point and gave me hope. I would recommend him to anyone.
