Justice at Last!!!

After so many parole denials, including the one in 2016, we knew the only way my brother could get a just outcome was thru the courts. We interviewed several attorneys, but Mr. Carbone stood out from the rest and he was retained to appeal the parole board's decision. Mr. Carbone wrote a strong and c...ompelling appeal. The Superior Court Judge sided with my brother's appeal and ordered the parole board to give him another hearing. On September 26, 2017, the board granted my brother parole after serving 33 years. Mr. Carbone fought for my brother's right to parole even when faced with heavy opposition from the Department of Justice, the Assistant District Attorney and Victim Rights Advocates. We are thankful and grateful for his passion for prisoner rights, and his unwavering commitment to fight for justice. We are beyond happy with the outcome!

Lied to me

Charles Carbone was hired by my mom when I was in Ad seg . During a potty watch and was fully chained up naked with waist chains and cuffs I was sprayed with disinfectant on video by a C.O. name Lipper. Did the whole 602 process answered all levels warden signed 602 acknowledging fault before 90 Day... expiration of video delete by facility Head.. Carbone pick the case up from there after receiving retainer he push to next level as a state board complaint with the state of California .. First red flag he wanted $5000 retainer to meet timeline to file in state or federal court for lost suite .... when time came to fill he was nowhere to be found then at the last minute he took retainer then 2 weeks later returned retainer said time had expired to file in court .... So I thought using a state funded lawyer to sue a state entity Charles Carbone faked me out had me and my family fooled ....

THE BEST OF THE BEST

Mr. Charles Carbone is the first attorney that I have ever hired. I found him on this website and read the reviews left by others. My uncle has been incarcerated for over 27 years. He had already served his term after 20 years and was denied parole 3 times. We needed an expert attorney who has the... extensive legal knowledge, experiences, and willingness to help my uncle. Mr. Carbone accepted the case and also helped us to understand the legal processes. He also met with my uncle on several occasions and provided mentorships prior to attending the Parole Board Hearing. Earlier this month, my uncle was finally granted for parole! Thanks to Mr. Carbone representation, great efforts, and time invested in my uncle! I highly recommend Mr. Carbone as a Prisoner Rights Attorney! THANK YOU Mr. Carbone!

***Simply - Outstanding!***

I never, NEVER write reviews but I had to make an exception this time to help anyone out there who is looking for a Civil Rights Attorney. I hired Mr. Carbone for my brother who has served nearly 25 years in prison. His situation was not easy yet Mr. Carbone accepted his case and got busy preparin...g for his upcoming hearing. After the hearing was concluded, Mr. Carbone called me with the good news! My brother's request for parole was GRANTED!! His family is "ELATED" and it's all due to Mr. Carbone's unwavering commitment, dedication and expertise. I can't recommend any other attorney for the job. Just a note: I had hired 3 attorneys over the course of my brothers incarceration and none of them did their job like Mr. Carbone did. Thank you so much Charles!
