Unethical Do not Hire

Hired Gay 12/19/2019, prolonged case for billing purposes. Missed deadlines and was never available. Had to review case notes over and over again. Billed me to correct her mistakes. Filed multiple unnecessary motions. Amended complaint over and over then dropped us after paying over 130K and hav...ing to go on contingency. My case never progress and I am starting all over from the beginning after 3 years. Filed a complaint with the CA Bar Association.

A lawyer’s duty to keep confidences has few exceptions and in an abundance of caution, I do not feel at liberty to respond in a point-by-point fashion in this forum. Suffice it to say that I do not believe that the post presents a fair and accurate picture of events.

A positive outcome for a high spirited positive lawyer!

Gay was amazing, she took a case from outside her city against a large public entity. The case dragged on for almost two years, and yet Gay remained determined and confident throughout. She was always in high spirits and kept her conversation truthful and to the point, which helped make straight forw...ard decisions that in turn moved our case in the proper direction. I am pleased with the outcome and proud to say she was my lawyer in this matter. Could not be more Thankful for Gay’s help.

Wrongful termination from University of California

Gay was very helpful right from the beginning of my complaint. She was realistic about expectations, she kept me informed throughout the process and was able to reach an amicable resolution with opposing counsel. My experience working with both Gay and her staff was always very positive and it was n...ice to have Gay and her team in my corner when going through this very difficult process.

Excellent Representation for a State Employee

In my consultation meeting with Ms. Carroll, she listened to my side of the story and made sure she understand the issues that arose and my reason for consulting an attorney. My case involved me being unjustifiably dismissed from a state job. While I do have union representation, I knew I would not... receive the type of representation from the Union as I did from Ms. Carroll. Ms. Carroll had my best interest at heart and presented a strong case to support my disagreement with my dismissal and was successful in securing me a fair settlement agreement.
