Family Attorney
Carol is fantastic. My case is complicated, and I switched to her in the middle of it. She picked it up and immediately made great progress on it. She continuously works my case, even when I am not reaching out to her about it. She is smart, supportive, and advocates for her clients. The best choice I made was switching to her. I strongly recommend her.

Carol's compassion, preparation, and thorough advocacy for my complicated divorce issues was impressive. Whenever I had a question, the issue was rearched thoroughly in such a way that I felt confident in her representation. Her personable nature exuded safety, as well. I highly recommend Carol.
