This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Aggressive representation

Cara has represented me through my divorce, the most difficult experience in my life. She was both professional and efficient, in helping me through the legal system. She also helped me keep focused and offered comfort that I was being represented by a person who has the drive, energy and experienc...e in defending the truth. I highly recommend Cara in aggressively representing your legal needs.

Professional misconduct

Reprimand issued in OR, 2020

This means the lawyer did something wrong but the bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
