About Carla
Biography
I tell all of my clients, “get over yourself and worry about your kids”. In a perfect world, all divorces would be settled without the need for any court hearings. While I prefer mediation and agreed orders, when the necessity of court arises, I am a tough litigator who will advocate for you. I will put in the time, do the research and be your voice in the courtroom.
While some of my clients have nicknamed me “shark” and “viper”, I am compassionate and will represent you to the best of my abilities. My clients have my cell phone number and I am very responsive to calls, texts and emails. My goal is to get the resolution you are seeking with honesty and reasonable expectations. I will not sugarcoat anything and am always straight with my clients on the hurdles in cases. I do not nickel and dime my clients, as the more money you and your spouse spend on lawyers, the less that goes to your children. As a single mom and widow, I understand that completely.

I will ALWAYS use Carla for representation!
I hired Mrs. Rankin in mid February and we were done with my case before april! She keeps her word, knows how to do her job, she tells it like it is and gives her clients the truth from start to finish. I have had representation before that cost SO much for nothing and dragged my case on for years. C...

Five stars aren't enough!
Carla delivered as promised. She kept appointments, communicated with me throughout the process, and was great to work with. She promptly answers emails and text. My jaded opinion of lawyers was significantly changed by her professional approach.

Carla was great to work with. She got everything done very quickly and with very little hassle. Would definitely use her again and will recommend her to friends.
