Carol represents clients throughout North Texas in every facet of family law, including divorce, property division, marital agreements, child custody and child support. She is widely known for her expertise, focus and passion in guiding clients through the various aspects of family law cases.


Her work for family law clients has helped Carol earn repeated peer nominated selections among the state’s best attorneys on the annual Texas Super Lawyers list published by Thomson Reuters. She has been named in the same listing as one of the Top 50 Women Lawyers in Texas and one of the Top 100 Attorneys in the Dallas/Fort Worth area based on nominations from other attorneys.

She has held the highest AV-rating from the legal ranking service Martindale-Hubbell for more than 20 years.
