About
I care about my clients. When a client thanks me at the end of their case, it makes me feel like I did a good job and that my client is happy. This is why I am an attorney. I focus on family law and personal injury: divorce, child support, visitation and custody; car accidents and slip and falls. My office also does real estate closings and wills and probate work. I am a retired U.S. Navy, Judge Advocate General Corps Commander (O-5). I have been practicing law since 1985, and have been here in Norwich, Connecticut since 2002. We do not chage for initial office consultations. If you have a legal issue and feel you may need the assistance of an attorney, pleaes feel free to call me. Thank you.

I hired him on the request of my children for modification of custody. When the other party wouldn’t come to the table, it went to trial. Attorney Cartier was thorough in questioning myself to set the foundation of the case. When cross examining witnesses for the other party, he hung on every word and was able to use their testimony to support my case. I would highly recommend him for legal needs and will use him again in the future if ever a need arises
Michael Cartier and the staff in his office are great! I closed on my house recently without a hitch! Thank you.
I was put in touch with Michael Cartier from a friend after I got injured. He was so helpful during a period that that I needed all the help I could get. He alleviated much of concerns and got me money to help with the burden of my medical costs, and was so great about getting back to me with timely updates. I'm just starting to get back on track and I really appreciate the legal services that Michael provided me.
Mr. Cartier did a great job as my attorney when I was rear-ended on the highway a couple of years ago. He handled everything from the insurance and medical bills to my deposition. He reached out to me several times over the course of my physical therapy. On two occasions, the other insurance company offered to "settle" but Mr. Cartier advised me appropriately, he even reviewed the medical record with me on more than one occasion to ensure it was complete. In the end I did settle for an amount that I was satisfied with. Thank you.
Attorney Cartier handled a complex divorce case for me. Issues about property, retirement pensions, personal property, assets were dealt with in a respectful, intelligent manner. Explanations were clear and concise and always with my protection in mind. My divorce took over two years to finalize, but I felt assured that all would end in the most fair settlement for me. With the unwavering intelligent and kind guidance of Attorney Cartier I received an excellent judgement in my behalf that I know would not have occurred with a different Attorney. His legal assistant Amy was also indispensable to the outcome of my case. I would highly recommend Attorney Cartier to anyone in need of excellent representation in any divorce matters.
I was a client of Mr. Cartier for a lawsuit concerning my business. He was knowledgeable when it came to Native Peoples Law but no only was he knowledgeable, he and his staff were making sure that they kept me abreast of new developments throughout the long litigation. There were times when I felt like the process didn't move along fast enough but I learned that the process takes much more time than I was aware. It was my first lawsuit so I would have been lost if it had not been for Mr. Cartier and his staff. They understood that a small business had limited resources. They tried to be mindful of that. Eventually, the lawsuit was over and I received the best outcome possible. I have to say that God pulled me out of the fire once again but Mr. Cartier did his part to achieve a resolution. I am grateful.
I hired Mike Cartier for my child custody case. He walked me through the finances, and all of the legal processes every step of the way. I am so glad I found him. He is a veteran, so he understood my needs and my lifestyle. In the end, my family and I got exactly what we needed. If you are searching for an attorney for a family case, STOP NOW! Talk to Mike Cartier. He and his staff are truly masters of their craft.
I was very pleased with how Attorney Cartier handled my case. He was very knowledgeable and kind, and got me through the whole process quickly. I highly recommend Attorney Cartier.He will go to work for you.
Was not too happy with the outcome. After I settled my case I found out he did not claim the most serious of my injuries which I'm still suffering with several years later. Had he claimed these injuries I would have the monies to handle the co-pay to have them fixed correctly. I found him to be unprofessional when speaking with him as well.
Back in 2009 I hired Mr. Cartier to fight for jurisdiction to have my divorce and custody case in CT. My husband at the time and kids were in Louisiana for 3 months temporarily while we had lived in CT for the past 4 years! My husband had the better lawyer who somehow was able to get Louisiana jurisdiction for my case! I have spoken to other lawyers since and they all tell me that should have NEVER happened. The younger lawyer he was working with, I forget his name now, seemed to be more knowledgeable and was helping me. It has taken me years to fix the damage him losing jurisdiction cost me but I am well on my way, no thanks to him. Do NOT use this lawyer.
