Great Service and Fantastic Results!

Ms. Colton helped to negotiate a successful settlement to an old debt. She made sure that the terms met my requirements and she addressed very important issues that I would never have known to be concerned about. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Fantastic Advisor & Partner

Carrie-Ann was so great to work with a recent real estate transaction. She always made herself available and was very flexible with tight timelines. We couldn't recommend her more highly!

Rating Carrie Ann Colton

Carrie did an outstanding job in representing me. She is extremely competent with a can-do attitude and is also a creative thinker with great problem-solving skills. Her sense of justice and fairness stands out from the crowd, and she is my go-to attorney.

Posted by William | August 26, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Highly Recommend

This attorney is highly intelligent, motivated, creative, and perceptive. Her ability to think critically and communicate conceptually has always impressed me. She is mature, stable, and has a high degree of personal integrity which I believe is difficult to find in this or any profession at this tim...e. Ms. Colton has been my attorney and represented me in several cases. She has a deep understanding of human behavior and the law. She is empathetic, but also assertive when the need arises. If you are looking for a mature, stable, highly competent attorney, she will be a welcome asset in dealing with your legal issues. Ms. Colton is efficient, and her fees are reasonable. She is comfortable working with a variety of clients from diverse backgrounds. She has a deep commitment to her work, and justice. She is ethical, and very reliable. Dr. William Weddington

Look no further!

Working with Mrs. Colton was a great experience. She's great at what she does. It is amazing to watch her work. She was thorough, tough, and knew her stuff...all the while being so personable with me and making sure I understood the process along the way. I can't thank her enough for her services...I... was just glad she was working for me!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
