About

The focus of my practice is serving individuals and families within the community, specifically in the areas of family law, estate planning, and real property law. Prior to starting my practice, I served as a judicial intern to the Honorable Albert Diaz in the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, the Honorable Wanda G. Bryant in the North Carolina State Court of Appeals, and the Honorable Robert C. Conrad in the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina. Additionally, I interned with the Senior Vice President and Regional Legal Counsel for Balfour Beatty Construction-the 3rd largest builder in the country. And before law school, I worked as a litigation paralegal for over 6 years on both state and federal actions. My litigation background started in family law and insurance defense. It then progressed to various facets of real estate law, particularly community associations law, foreclosures, and  construction law. Now, as a solo practitioner, I have the joy and flexibility of choosing who I serve, and I've chosen to serve the people of my community. Please feel free to contact my office in regards to your legal needs.

Ms. Carter and her team are true professionals. It is a family-oriented environment, which allowed me to divulge uncomfortable information during a very difficult time. Ms. Carter was with me during every step of the way to include during the virtual hearings. I highly recommend their services for any type of legal advice.

I've spoken with Lynn regarding my family law situation (divorce and relocation from FL to MD with infant) a few times. Although the jurisdiction for my case is FL, Lynn has been willing and responsive in providing invaluable advice and recommended actions I can take. She is very personable and insightful. My only wish is that I could have hired her to represent me in FL.

When I hired Lynn Carter to help me through one of the most difficult times in my life, she navigated the coarse of my divorce case in a most professional and personal way. We worked together under her direction to satisfy not only court requirements but to my own needs. She made me feel that she was working for me. She made sure my best interests were a priority. There wasn't any question unanswered or requests held back. The firms personal website makes it easy for communicating, paying bills and uploading downloading documents. Lynn Carter made me feel at ease and at times reassured me the out come of my case. It has truly been an honor working with Lynn and the Carter firm. I can't express how much I appreciate all she has done and how much support she has given. I highly recommend the Lynn Carter Firm for your personal legal needs and know things will get done..

Attorney Carter represented the physically, emotionally, and financially suffering client, our mother, until her demise, which can possibly be the result of the aforementioned conditions, some conditions preventable, of our Mom. She was a good listener and thus learned about the mistreatment and disrespect promoted by my Father's second wife and POA to Dorothy Shaw, who was disabled and lowe income. When my Dad's second wife and her name calling attorney stooped low avoiding the legal process, attorney Carter professionally responded to both parties. Mrs. Cleoria failed my Dad and my Mom by failing to communicate and allow factifinding, transparency and discussion as the second wife, POA and Representative with Dorothy Shaw. Attorney Carter realized that my mother could not make ends meet, was susceptible to homlessness, and experienced emotional distress and took her case regardless of her ability to pay. Attorney Carter sought what was due to my mother while Cleroria verbally claimed being broke and providing know professional dialogue with and paper proof to Dorothy M. Shaw, who relied on a mere $1000 alimony since 1990 cost of living.

Ms. Carter helped me with a land boundary dispute. She was able to pull deeds going back to the early 1800’s when my family first acquired the land and put me in touch with the best surveyor who was also able to pull county documents proving my ownership. They were a great asset to me while also keeping expenses in mind.

I had a phenomenal experience with Lynn. Lynn assistance me in pursuing a home builder that screwed me over. One month before I was scheduled to settle on my new home, the builder/preferred lender advised me that I would not be able to get the flooring that I selected. Even though this was a deal breaker for me, the builder refused to void the contract and refund my earnest deposit. The builder told me that flooring was not a condition to void the contract. Once I contacted Lynn she was prompt, professional and very straight forward. Because of the strict contract that I signed with the builder, Lynn and I both thought it would be impossible to settle this with the builder. 2-3 weeks after reaching out to Lynn, she was able to void the contract with the builder AND the builder agreed to refund my earnest deposit. I will definitely reach out to her again BEFORE entering another contract to purchase my first home.
