Carol Bailey gets it done.

Carol Bailey is my divorce attorney. As you may know, this is an extremely difficult time. My divorce is not an easy one. Several businesses and property involved, and, six kids. Carol goes above and beyond to work for me and my family. I am not business savy so having her knowledge and experience on... my side has been crucial. I am grateful that she agreed to take my case.

Carol is brilliant

I have used Carol for my divorces and was extremely impressed of her knowledge and quick resolve in handling my circumstances. I would not recommend anyone else to handle my family affairs and have referred her to many of my friends and none have been disappointed. Great job Carol keep up the great w...ork.

Excellent Lawyer

Attorney Carol Bailey was my lawyer through a very stressful and emotionally -charged divorce. She is an extremely skilled lawyer and knows the intricacies of divorce law. Attorney Bailey went above and beyond what is expected from a divorce attorney. She was extremely sensitive to the emotional turm...oil that most people experience throughout the divorce process. Also, she was able to settle my very complicated case without me having to experience a lengthy and traumatic trial. This attorney is top-notch, and I am so grateful I had her to negotiate my settlement -- one that exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend Attorney Bailey!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
