My personal goal is to always recognize the dignity of each client while helping them resolve any legal issue.
I began my legal practice, after working for many years as a Human Resource Manager for a variety of businesses including a large local heavy manufacturer and in Risk Management. Today, I help clients with planning for an responding to life experiences (e.g., elder law issues, estate planning, guardianships, probates, and small business issues). I taught as on the faculty at City University and periodically wrote columns on employment issues for the Vancouver Business Journal. In addition, have conducted seminars and workshops in the community related to elder law, estate planning, and employment law.
I am committed to serving in the community, founding the Human Dignity Foundation, which runs a non-profit adult care home (Good Shepherd Manor) to provide a better place for elderly, disabled and/or terminally ill adults with limited financial means. I am an active member of St. Thomas Aquinas parish where am a reader, a sacristan and have served on the Pastoral Council and the Outreach Commission, I currently serve on the Board of the Children's Center and previously served on the Board for Second Step Housing.
My husband, Tom, and I have have two Beagles, Hastings and Pepper, who I enjoy loving and showing. We have a menagerie of mostly reptiles (two leopard geckos, a crested gecko and a bearded dragon, two tree frogs, a russian gold tortoise) and one small pet mouse. Togehter we enjoy camping and I enjoy hiking (I got to walk the Camino de Santago a few years ago - an amazing experience).

Carol has been representing me for over 7 months, and I will tell you that she is above reproach, her honesty, integrity and trust is her greatest strength. You add compassion and hard work; and what you have is a recipe for success. She also demands the same from me, and expects me to be...
"I endorse this lawyer's work. I have worked with Carol on several matters while at the same same firm and while working with different firms. I have referred several long-time clients to Carol for employment and elder law matters and have always received very positive feedback. Carol takes the time to listen to and understand her clients and her caring nature is very evident in her interactions with clients. Carol is a consummate professional and an attorney I would highly recommend."
