Knowledgeable, caring lawyer

I was referred by my counselor to Robert Carroll, for a potential divorce. He met with me for about 45 minutes and answered all my questions. Most of the question dealt with financial concerns associated with a divorce. He was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all my questions with lo...ts of detail. He gave me a better picture of what might be involved if I proceed with the divorce. The consultation was free and if I decide to go forward with the divorce, I will retain him as my lawyer. He came across as someone who not only knows the law but is concerned about his clients well being.

Empathetic and Caring

I was going through a very difficult and confusing time a few months ago. Another attorney (a friend of mine trusted) referred me to Mr. Robert Carroll. Robert was very compassionate from the moment I met him. He saw me unravel and cry and "rant and rave", yet was able to talk to me in a very empathe...tic manner, which made my whole case more tolerable. He always called or emailed me back on time. If I needed to talk, he would always call me back and would actively listen to me. He also measured all aspects of my person and situation before money was talked about. He was very fair and would never overcharge you. Communication is "key" and Robert does this well. I would definitely recommend Mr. Robert Carroll as anyone's attorney. Thank you.

Could not have asked for more

Unfortunately I had to hire an attorney for a custody battle. The first lawyer I found and paid did NOTHING for me and that's when I met Mr. Carroll. Robert Carroll was not only very professional, timely, knowledgeable, and informative, but he was also very kind, caring, and respectful even when I w...ould call in a panic on weekends. Mr. Carroll did more for me in one week then my first lawyer did in a month. And he always kept me involved and informed of everything as it took place. Even after he should have been done with my case things still kept coming up and Mr. Carroll has never given up on me and still helps me every step of the way. He is reasonably priced and very knowledgeable about the laws. If you are looking for a lawyer, look no further he is your man..Thank you Robert Carroll you were and still are my savior..
