I worked with Carol as my collaborative Attorney (long story) and she was always knowledgeable and easy to work with. Though not her fault in anyway the collaborative process broke down when we could not agree on a custody issue. When I needed to switch to litigation she helped me find a new attorney and was very supportive in the process...she will definitely be invited to the "divorce is final party".

I found Carol to be knowledgable and compassionate. She answered all my questions and really understand. She was always conscientious about the costs. While divorce is never easy, Carols's caring attitude made a huge difference.

Carol was my lawyer in a complex financial case. She was really on top of it and represented my interests while maintaining professional courtesy with opposing counsel. I really appreciate her professionalism.

Slow-moving, except when it comes to billing. What could've been settled in a few months, took closer to a year. Sorry, I don't buy "holidays" as an excuse: I wanted this painful chapter of my life closed quickly. Admitted mistakes by her staff added to the delays. I felt like I did much of the legwork in negotiating with my ex - Ms. Betts was ready to set up mediation. Thankfully, my ex & I wanted to end this sooner than later, so we agreed to our terms (custodial AND financial) & then I presented it to her. Even then, I felt it took too long for all the paperwork to be completed. I thought by going to a solo practitioner, I'd get more attention, but this was not the case.

I felt like I did much of the legwork in negotiating with my ex - Ms. Betts was ready to set up mediation. Thankfully, my ex & I wanted to end this sooner than later, so we agreed to our terms (custodial AND financial) & then I presented it to her. Even then, I felt it took too long for all the paperwork to be completed. I thought by going to a solo practitioner, I'd get more attention, but this was not the case.
