excellent attorney very professionl, compassionate, listens and knows the law.
I hired Mr. Boake after my x husband filed for a child support modification. Mr. Boake was incredible taking his deposition, finding my x in many lies an admitting to hiding money. The judge ruled in my favor hands down and Mr. Boake was not only able to keep the child support payments unchanged but he was able to have them extended beyond what was in the original settlement. Not only were the results better than I had thought but for the first time, I was able to stand up against my abusive, bullying x husband. I only wish I had met his sooner when I originally got divorced because I know I would have gotten much better results than the lousy attorney that I hired.
Hired Mr. Boake to take over my case where another lawyer kept me in limbo and never resolving anything. Mr. Boake took over, went to trial and made my ex look like the lying jerk he was. He found every lied he told the court, and each lawyer my ex hired Mr. Boake sliced right through each of them like butter on hot toast! He is pricey but I think he is well worth it. We had a guardian that found me not a suitable parent as I would not let me 13 year old daughter leave the house in daisy dukes and a cut off top while the court appointed guardian was there and when we went to court she used that against me, as I would not allow my daughter to be like her peers, HA! Mr. Boake got her recommendations through out as well. My ex tried putting me in contempt every month and Carl got every one of them thrown out. I would HIGHLY recommend Carl Boake for anyone!
Mr. Boake handled a child custody, time-sharing, and child support case for me. He is very fierce in the courtroom! I was also in awe at how he was able to successfully get information needed out of my ex during depositions! He is a very smart man with clear understanding of the law. He knows what is needed to have a favorable outcome of a case and works hard to achieve exactly what you, as the client, are wanting. This attorney was worth every penny!
Mr. Boake help me through my divorce and was wonderful. He and his staff are very professional and extremely knowledgeable. My divorce was finalized very quickly and very much in my favor. I highly recommend Mr. Boake and his firm.
I wouldn’t use this so called lawyer if he was free and I was broke living on the street in the brown snow-he is lazy-unprepared unresponsive etc etc-run from him
I wish these high reviews represented my experience with Mr. Boake and his office staff. I had a simple time-sharing plan that needed modification. After 9 months we were scheduled to go before a judge to appoint a guardian ad litem for my child. A week before the first event in my child’s favor, Mr. Boake requested to withdraw from the case. He left me frantically searching for another attorney to represent me within a week. After doing some research with the Clearwater courthouse, it appears that Mr. Boake has a history of withdrawing. After this experience, I would suggest that if you have something that should be simple to resolve, you find a person that has a history of settling out of court. At the hearing to appoint a guardian ad litem, my case almost got dismissed because opposing counsel argued that the original motion filed did not rise to the level of proving a substantial change in circumstance. The original motion could have been completely sound and unarguable had Mr. Boake bothered looking at my documentation that I tried to share. Mr. Boake is creditable when he goes to court. If you know that your case is going to take a long time and will have to be resolved with a judge, then he may be a good fit for you. He is an attorney who has a plan of action of eventually going to court. The paraprofessional in his office left much to be desired in the way of kindness.
