Carolyn Metzger Mitchell

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 wo...uld hire her again in a heartbeat!

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 join...t 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.

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.

In a state of confusion and stress, I contacted Carolyn for some direction on divorce. She generously provided guidance and counsel on basic process, steps and outcomes even though she had not been retained. It took me months to actually act on my decision to proceed with divorce, but when I did so... I immediately retained Carolyn as it was clear from my dialog months earlier that she was professional, fair, smart and honest - basically someone I could trust with a life decision. Once we were in the process she maintained calm and helpful despite many moments of stress for me. In addition to being very knowledgeable, her art of dealing with people helped (I believe) in terms of negotiating with my husband and in front of the judge. Her presence commands respect and that went a long way across the board. We had a relatively pain free experience and a short process due to her advice and vested interest in clients first -- it is clear that is where she operates from. I highly recommend Carolyn as a professional in any legal matter. No nonsense and lots of integrity.
