A passionate and powerful professional who...

Lisa is a passionate and powerful professional who executes with excellence. She takes the time to get to know her clients on a personal basis and is able to educate and inform you about the laws as it relates to family court. She gives you the confidence that your case is already WON! WE WON! W...E WON! WE WON! She is definitely my attorney who became my friend for life! Thank you Lisa!

I thank God for you!!!

I have nothing but good to say about Lisa. I needed a step-parent adoption and she handled it with grace. I would get so nervous or impatient and she would bring me down. If I had any questions she would answer them and send me the law link to back up what she said. She doesn't beat around the bu...sh but tells you how it is (good or bad). I knew I was in good hands and I trusted her. I thank God everyday that she was placed in my life. You can't find a better lawyer then Lisa!!!!

Peace of Mind

I went to Lisa 10 years ago with a very sensitive and private request. I needed to legally relinquish the paternity rights of my daughters father and then start adoption procedures so that her God father could legally adopt here. I was a single mother who was in emotional turmoil and I knew I was m...aking a decision that would effect my daughter for the rest of her life. Not only was Lisa extremely professional and informative she was also compassionate and sensitive to me and my daughters God father. She walked us through every step and handled things seamlessly. I know she had other clients but she gave us so much attention that we would have believed that we were her only clients. She handled our case quickly and at my daughters first birthday we were able to celebrate the adoption. Our lives have continued to be blessed because of the decision we made that year and we have never stopped thanking her for what she did. She was more than just a lawyer. I have recommended her to many of my friends since then and they all agree with me regarding the quality of service they receive from her.

Outstanding

I hired Attorney Carter to do an Adoption. It was a very emotional time and she was very patient and informative about the process. I usually have to ask a lot of questions as I find most people will give you basic information and leave it up to you to ask the necessary questions. I did not have to d...o this with her as she went above and beyond to make sure I was knowledgable and comfortable about the process. In this day and age, it is quite a pleasure to know that there are professionals out there who are who they say they are and do what they say they are going to do. I highly recommend Attorney Carter for any of your Family Law needs.

A Longtime Client

Mrs. Lisa Carter is a wonderful, wise, aggressive attorney who truly cares about her clients. When she takes on a case she treats you as if you are the most important client she has! She is motivated by getting the best results for her clients. Mrs. Carter has handled several family law matters f...or my family. She helped me to make the best decision for my children when I had to decide on which parenting arrangements would be best for my situation. Mrs. Carter helped me to understand the difference between a parenting plan and a consent order. She is well equipped to handle “ANY” family legal matter and I highly recommend her for guiding you through your difficult family legal matters.
