I interviewed several attorneys and even though Carolyn doesn't claim to be a "Criminal Defense Attorney" she is the one who showed the most confidence so I hired Ms. Kelly to represent me in two misdemeanor criminal cases. I paid her retainer and more as the cases progressed. My money was very well ...spent. She was relentless in my defense which ultimately led to both cases being dismissed. Opposing attorneys and the District Attorney especially may not like Ms. Kelly because she knows how to take them to task. I witnessed her interaction with several attorneys in the course of my defense all of whom were happy to consult with her and help me. I would hire her again and recommend her highly.

Ever since my divorce, I've had many challenges with my ex. Ms. Kelly was recommended to me by a paralegal who said she was the best attorney but not the most expensive one. Ms. Kelly has helped me navigate the laws, hearings and bureaucracy. From filing, through motions and mediation to agreements ...and orders - the results have been, without fail, exactly what I expected and very fair to both parties. She has practiced in Colorado Springs for a long time, is very knowledgeable, has a great understanding of judge's expectations and is highly effective. There are many cheaper lawyers and only a few more expensive ones. For my experience, Ms. Kelly's services are invaluable.

I signed a flat fee agreement with Carolyn about one year ago. After requesting a refund for the case she did not complete, (there were two) I received an itemized bill for over 20k. Carolyn is a very knowledgeable attorney and she did an exceptional job in handling a difficult opponent, however, she... is very contentious even with her client and would often not let us know of an appt. until the day before. I agree with another review I read in regard to her collecting payments. With the financial aspect of her business she loses all credibility. She would call or have someone else call me like a bill collector before my payment was even due. She is very difficult to talk to about money. This bill for 21k is an outrage and discredits any recommendation I could make for her. Unfortunately, she is a good attorney who is untrustworthy with fee agreements and costs.
