FREE AT LAST

My name is Tuan, I was incarcerated for 27 years and has been denied by the parole panels for the last three consecutive times before my family hired Mr. Charles Carbon to represented me on my next scheduled hearing on February 1, 2017. I was astonished in coming to knowing that Mr. Carbone's very in...telligent, smart, and knowledgeable with the controlling case laws pertaining to parole hearing. Mr. Carbon spend time to came to prison prepare me for my hearing. I had the best lawyer who was insightful about the steps to guide me and prepare me to answer to questions relating to insights, why I committed my life crime, remorse, and how have I changed? I was lacking insight until Mr. Carbon willing to teach, guide, and prepared me to the full extent of the questions that related to all these essential questioning that all lifer's and non-lifer's sit before the panel. I can deep say that without Mr. Carbon helping me understanding the dinamic and essential in how I am going about answering to these questions before the parole panel that eventually granted my release from prison. On June 1, 2017, I was found suitable for parole because I had the best lawyer who has given me the best representation before and during the hearing. Today I get to be reunited with my family and love one's, all the praises and glory go to God and Mr Carbon who deligently fought wholeheartedly on my behalf before the parole commissioners. I am honored to recommended to all those who seek counsel to represent their love one's before the parole board in the hope to gain their freedom and bring them home. He brought me home and reunited me with my family and love one's. Thank you Mr. Carbon if it wasn't for u, I am still sitting in prison, but today I am free at last. I old you my gratitude and my life. You are amazing lawyer who love to represented your client with heart and passion in your work to gain the freedom to those in my situation. May the Lord bless you by continuing to help those who need your help to be reunited with their family and love one's. Please give Mr. Carbon a call to represent your love one's who still inside anxiously awaiting to coming home. Your love one's is in the best hand with Mr. Charles Carbon as his/her representative on their behalf before the parole board. THANK YOU SO MUCH MR. CHARLES CARBON by bringing me home to my family.

Coming Home

My son needed an attorney to help him to get through the Parole process. I was told that Charles Carbone is the best Attorney. I spoke to Charles Carbone and after that I hired him for my son. When it was time to go to Parole Charles was there. They always talked before and after the Parole. My s...on will be coming soon all because Charles worked hard to help my son. If you ask me there's no attorney better than Charles Carbone. He's very intelligent, he is honest, and he is very nice. Thank you Charles Carbone.

Definitely gets the work done with his No B.S. policy

Charles is truly an outstanding attorney who cares a lot about his clients and making sure they are found suitable for parole. We first hired Charles when my father was up for his second parole hearing in 2016. My father was sentenced to 15 to life and had numerous rules violations and 115’s. My fath...er had a bad record when he faced his first and second parole hearings. But Charles provided clear guidelines, coached and challenged my dad with his no B.S. policy. He also helped my father to be able to articulate his programming to the parole board. Thanks to his coaching my father was found suitable after serving 24 years in prison. Throughout the process leading up to the parole hearings, Charles was easy to get a hold of and always answered all questions and concerns. I would recommend him to anyone who is facing parole board for the first or second or fifth time. He truly cares about his clients and their families and wants to seem them found suitable and succeed outside of prison.

Looking for a Commutation Attorney this is your man!

I hired Charles and his firm to write my husband’s application for commutation. He met with my husband quickly after he received his retainer fee. He spent ample time with my husband, and stayed in communication with me through the whole process as well as his associate Rebecca Rabkin attorney at la...w did. I never felt left out of the process. Charles collected all the documents he needed from my husband, had the commutation ready as we waited for one last letter of support. Charles and his associate Rebecca wrote an amazing application for commutation. They got it to the governor within three weeks of hiring him. The application is very professional. If the Governor and his staff don’t grant my husbands request for commutation of sentence it certainly wasn’t due to the lack of the expert services we received. I highly recommend Charles and his associate to anyone who is certain their loved one is rehabilitated and ready to come home. Now we wait to see the outcome. One last note I work with 9 private practice criminal defense attorneys not in a firm, to write and post this high recommendation doesn’t come easy. The work has to be exceptional as it is! Remember your loved ones life is on the line you get what you pay for. I’m Pleasantly pleased!

The Best

I hired Charles Carbone to represent my husband. Charles Carbone is the best lawyer in California for representing an inmate at a parole hearing. My husband was prepared with extensive interviews and a course of study prepared by Mr Carbone for inmates. There is no lawyer who could be more knowledgea...ble, skilled and caring than Mr. Carbone. My husband received parole at his first hearing thanks to the dedicated work of Mr. Carbone.
