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.

I don't do reviews. But I feel compelled to speak up. One person said she wants to keep her 401(K) because her husband took his out. Certainly, that would be fair if the amounts were equal. But it's also an issue that can only be decided at the end of the case (at time of trial). She said she got it..., because the judge was "in her corner". I don't know about that. That issue is a no brainer, especially for an attorney as well-known and well-regarded as Ms. Carfrae. My case was handled fine. I move on. I don't want to "win" in a divorce. I just want fairness, and I got that with Ms. Carfrae's help.

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.
