Posted by anonymous | November 05, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

She does nothing.

She did absolutely nothing for me except show up to my hearings in which She was usually late so we wouldn't have time to go over anything before the hearing. She did no cross examinations, no testimony, nothing. Had I known this I would have gotten a public defender, gotten a better outcome and not ...wasted my money.

Prior Client

Previous client before she opened her practice. She was a great lawyer, even though my son's birth mother shot her own foot.

Posted by Corey | April 17, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Very Disappointed, A good divorce lawyer, Doubtful

Unfortunately, Cara is not a good lawyer or just didn't care about me. A lawyer for men they are definitely not. Took my money, 1 year went by and nothing was accomplished. She pushed me to hire some useless accountant who also never produced and then when I got upset and called them all out. T...hey all fired me, but they kept their money. One year close to 10,000$ be careful she isn't really working for anyone but her. They took from me without producing, what do you call people like that. Be careful these people are predators.

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.
