Posted by Miriam | January 27, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Got the job done right

We hired Carolyn to re-write our Separation Agreement after another (well known) local mediator caused our divorce to be denied by the judge. Carolyn confidently helped us get back on track by rewriting the agreement; she was professional, friendly, articulate, and was respectful to BOTH parties.

Divorce and separation lawyer | Jun 03

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have known Carolyn for many years, and have acted as opposing counsel on a number of divorce matters. I have found her to be extremely competent, knowledgable, and hard-working. She is a capable divorce litigator who understands the process thoroughly, and who zealously advocates for her client. However, she is practical, and is a skilled problem-solver when negotiating for the client. I have always found her to be professional, easy to deal with, and an effective communicator. I would enthusiastically endorse her to a potential client."

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.
