Exceptional Attorney!

My child support case was a prolonged and complex one that spanned seven years across multiple states. Carrie's meticulous understanding of the case details, collaborative approach, and strategic planning were crucial in securing a triumphant outcome. Her professionalism, legal acumen, and adept hand...ling of courtroom proceedings showcased her as an exceptional attorney. Carrie's sharp insights into the opponent's moves, quick responses with well-crafted counter messages, and formidable presence in the courtroom contributed to a resounding victory. Not only did she secure a favorable judgment, but Carrie also successfully obtained a significant award of attorney fees on my behalf, underscoring her effectiveness and dedication as a legal professional. I wholeheartedly recommend Carrie as an exceptional attorney, as her remarkable skills and track record ensure reliable and successful legal representation. Two thumbs up!

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.
