About

As a mediator and attorney, I work closely with clients on a broad range of family law issues. I help people address serious concerns about the division of marital assets, the security of their relationship with their children, and the difficulty of meeting support obligations. I help clients achieve solutions that not only address their immediate problems but also look toward protecting their long-range interests.Known for my straightforward communication style, I try to explain your rights and options in clear terms. As an advocate, my goal is to help you find creative solutions without increasing conflict.

I cannot begin to say enough good things about Carry and her assistant Michael. She guided me through a confusing, frustrating process, gave fantastic advice, calmed me down when stressful incidents happened and helped keep moving things in my case along. Her knowledge of the legal process was top notch. She knew what reasonable resolutions were that a court would reach and that gave me the confidence to reach an equitable solution in mediation. She knew what was worth taking to trial and what wasn't and that helped keep my case out of court. I would re-hire her in an instant.

Carry has been an amazing asset to us throughout an ongoing family law battle. She has represented us in Court several times and her verbal arguments are always top notch. Carry is calm, straight forward, detail oriented, sincere and genuine in everything she has done for us. She has helped us immensely in dealing with a high conflict family court case. We highly recommend Carry to anyone who requires an attorney for any form of family law and we are extremely grateful to have Carry on our team during this difficult time in our lives.
