I utilized the Law office of Shelley Carter for a divorce. Shelley is honest, intelligent, and does her homework providing me with a fierce advocate. She was my backbone when I felt overwhelmed and tired. She gave sound legal advice and protection. I strongly recommend Shelley (and sweet Maggie).

Shelley is everything you want in a high-conflict attorney. She is determined, focused, and honest. She offered clear guidance and always kept my child’s best interests in mind. She balances compassion and strength and does not back down when it counts. Her prices are upfront and fair. You’d be hard-pressed to find someone better. I sought Shelley’s help for a high-conflict parental rights and responsibilities case that I believed would be impossible to keep out of trial, and she was able to do exactly that. Added bonus, she has the best office help.

Divorce is no fun. It's stressy bullsh*t stacked on top of other bullsh*t that completely tosses a monkey wrench into your entire existence. Shelley is a very no-bullsh*t, results oriented champion of what YOU want... not what anyone else wants. She's in YOUR corner, and that's huge. While I hope I never have to employ her again, my time spent with her was a pleasant highlight in a very uncertain and stressful section of my life.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience working with Shelly. Our situation held a lot of emotion and Shelly guided me through every step with professionalism, compassion, and unwavering dedication. From the beginning, Shelly listened attentively to my concerns and made sure I always felt heard and supported. She explained the legal process clearly and made sure I understood all my options. Thanks to Shelly’s expertise and tireless efforts, we achieved the best possible outcome. I am incredibly grateful for her advocacy, patience, and compassion during such a challenging time. I would highly recommend Shelly to anyone in need of legal assistance. You will not only have a skilled legal advocate on your side, but also someone who truly cares about your family.

Shelley Carter represented me during a very difficult time recently. I went through a divorce and her knowledge of the law along with her compassion made the process much easier. She was patient in explaining the procedures to me and always seemed to know when I needed emotional support in addition to understanding the legalities of the law. She was consistently available and responded in an appropriate amount of time. I highly recommend her if you are in need of legal services.

Shelley was absolutely phenomenal from the first consultation I had with her. The efforts she went to in order help me with my case have allowed me to have a second chance. Without the counsel she provided me I would have had little to no clue what steps to take in order to fulfill all of my duties. Any questions I had she was there to answer swiftly and thoroughly. At my lowest point, she was there for me and helped me get my life back on track. I will forever be grateful to her.

This was my first time seeking legal assistance, and I couldn't be more pleased. Shelley consistently provided guidance, addressing any questions I had with expertise, kindness, and compassion. Her ability to eloquently and assertively communicate with the other party was always impressive. Shelley embodies the perfect blend of professionalism and approachability, creating a comforting environment in her office, even during tense moments. I wholeheartedly recommend her services, and she will be the first person I turn to for any future legal matters.

Shelly was amazing from the get-go. Throughout my divorce case she kept me grounded and thinking positive. This was the toughest time of my life. Thanks to her I’m in a better place. She was able to push me when I needed to be pushed. She was trustworthy and easy to talk to, which made working with her much easier I would highly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce.

The first time I went to meet with Shelley I was terrified but from the moment I walked through her door she made me feel comfortable and welcomed. Shelley represented me through a high conflict divorce. Shelley is extremely professional, knowledgeable, dependable, and compassionate. She always responded to any questions I had day or night and made sure I understood all processes of my divorce proceedings. I could not have made it through this difficult time without her representation. By the end of my divorce I was stronger individual and I owe most of that to her! Thank you Shelley!!

She is tough, capable and always made me feel confident in the process and outcome. She kept me grounded during an emotional and challenging time and I can't thank her enough. Highly recommend Shelley Carter!
