About
With a focus on family law and related issues, Carly West Holler understands that few areas of the law are as personal or fraught with emotion as matters concerning family. She knows that individuals faced with the challenge of dissolving a marriage require an attorney who is sensitive to their needs and the emotional impact of divorce, yet is also practical in her approach, addressing such issues as financial obligations, tax consequences, business valuation and the long-term interests of children. She is known for her ability to combine a sensitive approach with the determination and expertise to achieve her clients’ objectives. Of course, not all family law matters entail divorce. Ms. West Holler also has experience in handling matters involving orders for protection, harassment restraining orders, spousal maintenance, child protection or CHIPS cases, child support, child custody, grandparents rights, alternative dispute resolution, or the happy circumstances of adoption, as well as the proactive step of drafting pre-nuptial agreements and pre-dissolution strategy. With the understanding that every client’s personal and family situation is different, Ms. West Holler listens carefully to their concerns and structures her services to meet their needs. Whether it involves drafting a pre-nuptial agreement, negotiating a separation and property settlement agreement or valuing and distributing assets, Ms. West Holler provides the strategic thinking necessary to guide her clients through a very difficult time in their lives. Prior to joining the Family Law team at Smith, Paulson, O’Donnell & Erickson, Ms. West Holler served as a contract associate at various metro area law firms in the areas of family law, criminal law, education law and employment law. While in law school, she volunteered her time to the Minnesota Justice Foundation’s family law clinics, served as a law clerk at a mid-sized Minneapolis law firm, as well as holding leadership roles in various student led practice area organizations.

Carly did a great job navigating some difficult situations with my divorce. I would definitely recommend her to anyone dealing with a divorce and lots of moving parts
I hired Carly to help me through my divorce. She is a consummate professional and I appreciated her pragmatic approach. A strong and capable negotiator, she tried to find the best solution rather than unnecessary litigation. All of my questions were answered and explained in a way to make sure I understood the reasoning. The process is arduous, but I always felt listened to and it was reassuring to have a team that I felt was always in my corner. I would definitely recommend Carly to any friend who was in similar circumstances.
Both Carly and her paralegal Megan were very approachable and compassionate while assisting me with my divorce. They looked for multiple ways to provide me with cost savings throughout the process, and they were always able to answer my questions in a clear manner. Before my hearing, Carly walked me through what would occur, and she was well-prepared as well. She built my trust, and I would highly recommend her to others in need of legal guidance.
Carly was very understanding and respectful of my time and finances. She was down to earth and easy to talk to about finances of the divorce. I was very happy with the services provided.
Carly was quick to act and get the results that we wanted. I would highly recommend her for custody related issues as that was what she helped me with.
Carly was exemplary. I appreciated her professionalism, her empathy, and her relaxed disposition. I always felt she had my best interest at heart. I have never needed a lawyer for anything prior to my divorce, so I am so thankful I found Carly and this office. Professional, yet relatable. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of legal services.
Carly is extremely competent and professional. She is knowledgeable, available, and explains issues and procedures well. However, she also is kind and compassionate and dedicated to her client's best interest. We were involved in a very distressing and anxiety producing situation and would have been in serious trouble without her kindness and advice. Nothing was more than what she was willing to do, and she often went far beyond what one might have expected. We are grateful for her help and support.
Carly was a beacon of hope, compassion and understanding in the very dark and confusing circumstance of my divorce. She treated me with dignity and respect, explained the process, and was willing to address my questions and concerns as they arose in a professional and timely matter. She was always there to defend my rights to the fullest extent of the law, and to offer me options and alternative resolutions to any issues as they cropped up. I couldn't have been more pleased with her and recommend her services to anyone dealing with a divorce proceeding.
Carly Holler helped me through my unwanted divorce at a time when I was vulnerable and hurting. She is very professional, highly knowledgeable, and truly a caring person. I considered her a friend as well as my attorney. Carly isn't fake, she really does care about her clients and their situations. In a world of frivolous lawsuits, rampant divorce rates and lawyers having bad reputations...Carly is a very welcome beacon of kindness and professionalism. If you're going through a divorce you will want Carly by your side.
Carly was very easy to work with and fought for what I was trying to get out of my divorce. She worked with me in everything and kept me well informed on how things were going.
