A Top Notch A-1 Attorney

I have known Carolyn for years. She has represented me in several cases. She is smart, articulate, educated, savvy, qualified, friendly, and very well--known among her peers. I highly recommend her as a Lawyer to represent you. I am glad to know her and know she is there should I need her services....

I have Known Carolyn F.Horton Mcdaniel, in a variety of capacities for many years, She has been our family legal advisor for the past several years. In addition to her Phenomenal Representation in and outside of the courtroom, Carylon is organized, efficient, extremely competent, and has an excellent... rapport with people of all ages. Her communication skills, both written and verbal, are excellent. My family and I would highly recommend Carolyn F.Horton Mcdaniel's for any position or endeavor that she may seek to pursue. She will be a valuable asset for any organization.

"26 years of practicing criminal law is very experienced. Her knowledge of both the law and procedure is excellent and evident in her pro bono contributions here. The biggest compliment a lawyer can get are their client reviews and hers are stellar. READ THEM! Do yourself a favor and schedule a consultation with her. If your luck she might just agree to represent you."

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.
