Services
You will not simply be a number, a statistic or a file. Our law firm treats you with the personal service, dedication, and aggressive support we would expect from anyone that we hired to represent us. Our business philosophy is built on the golden rule: "Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you."
Have you been charged with a crime? If so, you need a criminal defense attorney with a record of successful court cases on your side. The criminal defense system is very difficult to navigate without the representation of a seasoned attorney. People who go to court for criminal charges without a lawyer are more likely to end up with a "guilty" verdict and harsher sentencing than those who have representation.
At Carter & Rader, we recognize that divorce is an immensely difficult and emotional experience. Research shows that divorce is one of the most stressful life events, second only to the death of a spouse. Most people going through a divorce grapple with worry and uncertainty about what will happen next.
If so, it's to your advantage to learn as much as you can about this powerful government organization and seek legal representation. All states in the U.S. have some version of Child Protective Services, a government agency often referred to as "CPS."
The stated purpose of Child Protective Services is to oversee children who need help, whether they've been abandoned, neglected, abused, or are facing another situation in which they aren't receiving proper care.CPS has the ability to investigate families for abuse and neglect. They are also given the power to take custody of children who they deem unsafe.

Personal injuries tend to become costly, fast. Injured people often face astronomical medical bills while they are unable to work. Without financial compensation, these bills pile up. As a result, many people are hounded by collection agencies or even forced into bankruptcy after experiencing a personal injury.

Aaron Carter is the best family attorney bar none! His responsiveness to our case was handled very professionally. Day or night he was willing to do what was needed to see our needs met from start to finish! He makes you feel very comfortable with his confidence and dedication to taking care of you. He kept me well informed throughout the entire process and left no areas unaddressed. Look no further, he’s the attorney you want on your side!

Critical: Quality
We just left their office because we had an appointment at 11 am and they had us waiting for 40 min. I couldn't imagine the lack of time he would give to our case. As we walked out nobody said anything to us. Clearly we are just not important enough to be on time to an appointment.

I am using Bonnie as my divorce/custody attorney and I can't begin to express how amazing Bonnie, Holly, and everyone in this firm has been during this very stressful time. I went from not "being allowed" to see or talk my boys for several months due to not having an actual written agreement to fall back on, to going to court and getting 50/50 custody where I get equal time raising and loving my children and for that I am truly forever grateful. I was recommended by a close friend and I certainly have not been let down. 5/5 Stars hands down and the only family law attorney I will keep saved in

Spend the extra money and hire Aaron. I'm talking to the people like me who were told get a cheap lawyer by family. Don't do it. I did it before I got Aaron and the difference is way more than the cost. Aaron got me my son. He is straight to the point and intimidating and he 100% has you're back. Lawyers that can get guys custody of kids are usually found by word of mouth...well if you don't know anyone I'm telling you Aaron did that for me.
