Charles Francis Carbone

During my life sentence at DVI I knew all along that only Mr, Carbone would succeed in my release from prison.He prepared all lifers with parole matters pamphlets on insight as well as everything needed for preparation to be found suitable for parole.He sent hundreds and hundreds of his own ways for ...us to deal with these commissioners who all respect him.Today,I am working with 28 yrs of sobriety and I know for a fact that its only due to this great man that I am back in society after 27 yrs. Best attorney ever.I recommend no other attorney as Mr.Carbone follows through until our freedom. We thankyou Mr.Carbone.Feel free to call me or my family anytime,anyday,for anything.Jose A

Charles Carbone is an excellent Attorney. He know the law and he really cares about his clients. I was excepting a 5 years for my initial at least that was what I was told. When I had asked Charles he did not lie to me. He is a honest person with high expectations. Today I am a FREE WOMEN its been 3... years and I an totally grateful to Mr. Carbone.

I was looking for a good attorney to represent me during my initial parole board hearing. I wrote to a few, but Mr. Carbone’s track record and human rights advocacy impressed me the most. During his first visit he advised me on exactly what I needed to do to prepare for the hearing. He went above and... beyond what most attorneys in his field would do. Mr. Carbone collected old court documents, wrote to my trial judge, reviewed my paperwork, and treated my family with the utmost respect. I was expecting a three-year denial since it was my initial hearing, but with the counsel of Mr. Carbone, I was granted a parole date on my first hearing. I would highly recommend Charles Carbone.

I am able too, with pleasure, write this post, because of the professionalism, insight, dedication and hard work Charles displayed while handling my case. I had proclaimed my innocence since my arrest and it appeared to fall on deaf ears (at-least when it comes to attorneys). My past experience was d...ismal at best. All that "they" made sure to be on top of was, their fee. I was blessed to have Charles in my corner. He was able to see through all the extenuating circumstances and get to the heart of the case. In doing so, He was able to ferret out the truth and I am free today because of this. The time between when my family called him and, when he visited me, it was 3 days. During that meeting he was able to formulate a game plan and he followed through to a tee. He was amazing with my family and friends and made me feel heard and supported. At the hearing, he garnered the respect and attention from the BPH commissioners as well as the DA. He performed brilliantly and did so without seemingly having to work at it. His intelligence and knowledge of the law is remarkable. And most importantly, he is a decent man with a big heart! He cares and made me feel supported. It is without reservation that I fully endorses Mr. Charles Carbone! He is the REAL DEAL!!!!!

My family hired Charles Carbone in 2012 to represent me at my initial board hearing. In dealing with Mr. Carbone I was not always happy. He seemed very busy and hard to get ahold of at times. He was short in conversation and always quick to the point. However, inside the board room Carbone was ge...nius. He played a strategy best fitting to my strengths while overshadowing my weaknesses. At my first board hearing Carbone asked me to take a 3-year denial, which I did. July 31, 2014 I went back to the board with Carbone and got a date. In hearing both of Carbone's closing arguments from my first hearing to my second hearing, I was able to recognize that he had a great plan. Carbone is definitely strategic in his dealings and methodical in his planning. Although I admit that he was frustrating to work with at times, I still give him a thumbs up. He is excellent at getting positive results. He did not hold my hand through the process but did navigate me to a date at my second hearing notwithstanding my prison record. He also cleared additional brushfires set ablaze by the DA's office. Frankly, he not only shredded the DA's argument for denial, but also discredited the DA's official account of the facts of my case that they presented before the board. I did not know that Carbone knew so much about my case. The common talk amongst inmates is that the attorney is only there to protect your rights. I found that not to be true in my case. Carbone not only protected my rights but also enacted them so that they had a voice of their own. He also tied up loose ends by taking key words and phrases that I said throughout the course of my hearings and put them into his closing to smooth out any questions or doubts about their meaning. He did a great job in interpreting to the board what I was trying to say because I did not say it well. Bottom line, Charles Carbone is an excellent attorney. He fights hard for his clients, and is definitely one of the best in the business. He is not one to hold your hand through the process, but is very knowledgeable of the law, trustworthy, and an excellent attorney. I highly recommend him.
