Att. Mitchell was professional from the moment she took my case.
She helped me understand legal process and what needs to be done. Made my EX resume alimony payments.
Thank you, again.
Carolyn was tremendously helpful as my LAR. While my ex and I agreed on all the particulars, we had no idea how to actually "get on with" the divorce, particularly during Covid times and after both moving. Carolyn was great about 1. listening to what we actually needed, 2. being clear about expectations and costs, and 3. consistent timely and thorough delivery of documents. She was also extremely helpful in navigating questions we had about jurisdiction. While divorces can be very tough, having a calm and knowledgeable professional can make it a bit more tolerable! Thank you Carolyn!!

Highly skilled practitioner and terrific to work with
Carolyn was recommended to me by another attorney I know well who practices in a different area of law. Like many people I couldn't believe I was in need of counsel from a family attorney in a divorce proceeding. Carolyn is a deeply kind, compassionate and wonderful person; and highly knowledgeable in mediation and family law. If you find yourself in similar situation, I highly recommend you give her a call. You'll be well served in so doing.

My Champion!!
It is without hesitation that I recommend Attorney Carolyn Mitchell! I have used her on two occasions and only wish I had used her for my initial divorce paperwork. Living in California and dealing with my ex-husband in Massachusetts she provided such support, strength and clear communication. If you are considering a change in your marital status or have other family issues contact her office sooner than later.

Fabulous attorney
I've had such a positive experience working with Carolyn that I've hired her twice - once to review my separation agreement and the second time to discuss and advise me regarding child support guidelines. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional and very personable. I highly recommend her and would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Excellent Divorce Representation
Attorney Carolyn Mitchell provided excellent advice and representation on how to proceed the most effectively with my divorce. She was welcoming in our initial in-take interview to me and my parents who accompanied me to provide support.
Ms Mitchell drafted all the necessary paperwork for a joint petition and handled all the correspondence with my former spouse in a timely and professional manner. Despite the fact he did not hire an attorney and choose to represent himself, Carolyn guided the both of us fairly and efficiently through the process in spite of my former's spouse occasional hostility.
I felt very well represented at court the day of the divorce because Carolyn had been very clear on what I could expect from the court and judge. I thought what could have been a very unpleasant and stressful experience was actually made bearable by Attorney Carolyn Mitchell's professionalism.

Excellent service in a difficult time
Carolyn was a perfect mediator. She was objective and kind, demonstrated great care and empathy to both parties. She facilitated difficult conversations in an efficient manner to ensure we were able to maximize each appointment. She was respectful of our desire to see a quick but thorough resolution. I think her proximity to the courthouse and connections within the Worcester probate court are invaluable. I have recommended her mediation services with confidence to others in my network.

EXCELLENT!
Carolyn was exceptional to deal with as a mediator. The entire process to write a separation agreement went very smoothly. Carolyn was very helpful in letting us know the procedures and what to expect when we went to court. We really lucked out in picking Carolyn from a google search.
