Not impressed at all

I was not impressed with the work Carolyn did for me. She cost me a lot more money than I could afford. Didn't get much done in the way of settling matters. She actually stirred up more problems and the opposing side ended up taking me to the cleaners. She thought she could outsmart them and they... called her out and it just made things worse for me in the long run. I would not reccomend her unless you want someone with shady practices working for you

Disappointed in her services

I hired Carolyn Cain after having a consultation with her and discussing my case. I was told that it was an open and shut case and should only require a couple hearings. Made me feel good about hiring her. Well here it is 3 years later and im still going to court over these unresolved issues. I h...ave had to file to have her removed as my attorney and decided it was time to find a new one that can get these issues closed up. I have paid out a lot of money for her time on this case with very little results.

Could Not Be More IMPRESSED!

I have to wonder if some of these negative reviews are people that were opposing parties of this attorney. I have used her help in many matters and have found her to effective, logical, friendly, easy to understand and caring. Not to mention she wins! She is one of those attorneys that tell you y...our options and don't offer you outlandish and expensive options that she cannot deliver on. She tells you like it is and then gives you results. She is worth every penny and I've never felt like she overcharged since she is one of the best around.
