Forever grateful

Ms. Carmen Brooks was an absolute blessing. She walked me through every single step of my situation even offering her help after my case was done! She went above & beyond in every way she could to bring me the best possible outcome and move forward from my mistake. I love that she is very straight fo...rward from the very beginning, & to me nothing beats honesty. Aside from being so smart, prepared, and professional; she was pleasant to be around. Made my court appearances feel like a breeze! I feel so lucky to have found her and could not have asked for a better person to help me through what I consider one of the worst moments of my young life...I will be eternally grateful! I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone I know.

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.
