Dorothy Louise Carfrae

I was not asked to write a review. I write this because Dorothy is a well-kown attorney and attracts fake reviews from competitors and spiteful opponents. I was a client of Dorothy through my divorce. My ex was a stay-at-home mom, and did not want me to see my children. On the other hand, the ex al...so wanted maximum child support and alimony. I want to be part of my kids' lives. Dorothy helped me get my time with my kids, and reduce support and alimony to a reasonable and legal level. For those results, I highly recommend Dorothy Carfrae to anyone going through a tough divorce .

When someone said that their spouse treated them badly, then left them, I have to think: who is to blame? The attorney who takes the divorce case? I think not. If I stayed in a "bad" marriage, I only have myself to blame if I stayed too long, hoping that I can "change" the person I married. I am wi...lling to take part of the blame for staying that long. When I filed for divorce, I just want it done right. And I found the office that did it right for me. I am not into keeping my children from my ex. They are his children too. Neither am I into taking everything we owned. My divorce was difficult, but I felt that I was served right by Dorothy's office. People who keep complaining about their lives and how bad their lives have become, need to take part of the responsibility of picking their spouse/mate, and their inability to move on.

It's hard enough to go through a divorce. It's harder when you don't want to lose your wife because she does not "feel like" being married any more. I am one of those men. I was lost, and I was depressed. I hired Dorothy on the recommendation of several friends who had gone through what I was goin...g through. All I wanted was to save my marriage. But my now ex-wife did not want any more of our family. I did not want to "punish" her for stepping out. I just want to be fair, and want to have time with my kids. I got that through the help of attorney Carfrae. Some people here want to "punish" the ex-spouse, want to "win", want to get "more", want to be "paid". I don't want any of that. I just want my family to stay together. If not, I want to part our ways fairly. I have Dorothy to thank for a fair division of our assets, and enough time with my kids, so that I can move on, one day soon.

Yes, I would recommend Dorothy Carfrae to my best friend and my relatives, if they ever need a family law attorney. I was referred to Dorothy by a person who lost his family law case because he was represented by an attorney who does not specialize in Family Law. Dorothy specializes in Family Law a...nd has practiced for 30 years. It says a lot when you watch her in court, when she is treated with respect by the judges, other court staff, and other attorneys. Do your homework, go to court, watch her and then decide. She won me custody of my children. And I am forever grateful.

I was referred to Dorothy Carfrae by a court bailiff. He said that if he was in need of a child custody attorney, that is who he would hire. Well, he is right. I was falsely accused of child abuse by my ex. You know, the same old tactics that people do when they get mad at you for breaking up. ... She wanted to punish me for leaving her, although there was no other woman at the time. Because of her accusation, Children Services Dept. opened an investigation, interviewed everyone, including my kids, and it took a year for them to clear me and declare that the accusation was unfounded. In the meantime, I was treated like a criminal and not a dad. It took a long time for me to get back my children, because at first the court ordered supervised visitation, even though I have never been arrested for anything. I now have more custody time with my kids, and my name is cleared. I do appreciate the hard work that Ms. Carfrae did on my behalf. Sean.
