Mr. Carroll, without a doubt, receives my highest praise and endorsement. He is kind, compassionate, professional, and extremely knowledgeable regarding family law. Mr. Carroll is sympathetic to the plights of single parents and treats his clients with the utmost respect. Me. Carroll immediately accept my short-notice call without hesitation and provided me with essential knowledge relevant to my case; to the extent of advising during his own lunch hour. I am so thankful to Mr. Carroll for his wisdom, knowledge, attention to detail, and most importantly; empathy. Highly recommend!

Mr. Carroll was extremely helpful in a very complicated case that involved two states' jurisdiction issues as well as other variables. Mr. Carroll was professional, extremely knowledgeable and represented my interests excellently when I was in a very vulnerable position. When you are in the middle of an emotional CAT 5 hurricane you need someone who has your back and Mr. Carroll made sure that my disabled son and I were properly taken care of by an out of state spouse. By the way, Mr. Carroll was not the first local attorney whose services I sought about this issue over the years, but he was BY

Going into the details of why we were represented by attorney David Carroll are not necessary but there were complications due to being interstate laws. Within a very short time the necessary paperwork was completed and done in a professional manner. My wife and I remain completely satisfied with the results and are happy to say we received all we wanted and more. After reviewing the negative posts I quickly wondered about those involved. If you get a speeding ticket it is through no fault of law enforcement and courts are merely enforcing and upholding the laws, just as the officer who enforces

David Carroll was hired by me, to get me through my divorce. Him and his paralegal Cheley Bradley had me putting away a huge sum of money in a trust account for the divorce ( all my savings) thinking that it will be safe. I was going through major life changes and wanted to have enough money to pay my lawyer for the entire divorce, as I figured it will be expensive. They took advantage of me and my case, racked up unnecessary charges, so they could use up all the money in the trust account, in the matter of 3 months they had nearly cleaned up 60K of my trust account. After racking up these huge

I am very happy with the results of my case. Mr Carroll made sure that I received temporary alimony and child support as soon as I hired him. We got into court within the first month! In the end he won my case. I got almost everything I asked for. I couldn’t ask for a better lawyer. Best lawyer in this area. I definitely recommend him.

Mr. Carroll was able to settle my divorce at mediation. Even after my divorce was final he still continued to answer any questions I had and even did a withholding order at no additional cost. He also got my ex to pay for most of my attorney’s fees. I appreciate everything you have done for me. I highly recommend Mr. Carroll.

I strongly recommend this attorney. Hands down he and his staff is the best!!!!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! from day one you were there. I met you broke and homeless on a Thursday. The following Monday I was in court and awarded temporary alimony, and within the same week I had another roof over my head thanks to you and your team! You told me I was going to be alright and that my divorce was just a simple stumbling block in my life that would soon be in the past. Ten months later because of you and your team I stand tall and thankful for all of your efforts. The permanent benefits that I

Took over two years for him and his office to file a divorce for me. Months went by with no phone calls or updates on my case, but they were more than happy to send me a statement with charges for ridiculous things. They said my retainer fee would only be used if they worked on my case, and they made sure to use every dime. I spent over $8,000 to get a divorce ,no property to split and only 1 child. I told them the other party will not cooperate, they insisted to file "inerogatories" that he will have 30 days to respond. 7 months later when I decided to stop paying him, Mr Carroll finally set up

Mr. Carroll and his team Debbie and Aditi started and finished my divorce in good time. This was my second divorce, first in Alabama and this one here in Pensacola. The team worked long days and many hours doing paperwork. They were there to answer questions and get things done. Again, thank you for doing this divorce. I am very thankful
