Carena C. Mcilwain

First and foremost, Carena is an outstanding attorney and the consummate professional. I started out behind the 8 ball, after wasting valuable trying to just work with my wife’s attorney in order to save both of us attorney’s fees. After interviewing a number of attorneys, I hired Carena, and s...he was a dream come true. She is an extremely knowledgeable, aggressive and thorough attorney who leaves no stone unturned. She has a very charming demeanor in working with her clients, and the required “Pit Bull” aggressiveness when dealing with opposing counsel. Carena was always prepared and is one of the most pleasant attorneys I’ve ever dealt with. She is a very diligent attorney whom is always responsive to her clients. Every email, phone call, or questions that I ever had was promptly answered. She is head and shoulders above her peers in her ability as a Family Law attorney. If you want the best, hire Carena, she is worth every penny.

My ex-wife took me back to court after the settlement of our divorce and attempted to get additional items. Carena successfully argued that the case was settled, and showed that my ex and her attorney were being vindictive. The judge was not happy with the opposing counsel’s attempt and ended up deny...ing them everything. Because of Carena’s expertise and charm, she took a tense situation (divorce court is not fun) and made it bearable and in the end I had a smile on my face. I continually recommend Carena and her team.
