Carter, Carter & Carter, Attorneys at Law - Adel (GA)

5 /5 Erin Lawson: We had the best experience with Lori Mathis. She is compassionate and welcoming. She really made us feel seen and heard, which isn’t something I’ve encountered often in this field. She is a strong advocate for the best interest of the children, and she is willing to hold adults accountable. She’s stayed in contact with us and was such a pleasure to just chat with after the business side of things was handled. 10/10 would highly recommend! If we ever find ourselves needing family law services again, she will be our first call!

5 /5 Codi Cellini: I want to give a shout out to Anna Carter and Lori Mathis for being so awesome!! They have worked 3 of my cases and we’re always quick to answer any questions and let me know what was going on. Highly recommend!

1 /5 Xavier Sneary: Was connected to him through a web service meant for speeding tickets, OTR. While he *eventually* took the case somewhat seriously, you could tell he simply did not care about my wifes case. Im sure if he replies to this itll be similarly dismissive as he does to others who review negatively, but it is true that he is ridiculously hard to get a hold of to actually discuss your case. He initially did almost nothing to get charges lowered and had to essentially be begged to do more, by my mother-in-law calling and myself sending a complaint to OTR for his lack of interest and communication. Most recently, we discovered that my wifes license had been suspended since Oct. 2024. Mr. Carter had wrapped up the case and taken the check for the bond payment at the beginning of 2024. He neglected to inform us that there would be an additional fine payable to the state for the "super speeder" offense, leading to a suspension for nonpayment. I had to call the Cook County clerk for more information, and they were shocked that an attorney would fail to mention this after explaining it to me. While it may seem insignificant, she could have been arrested, jailed, and/or had her car impounded for driving with a suspended license. Maybe hes better with other types of cases, or maybe he just didnt like us or the service through which he was contracted, OTR. However, Id never want to deal with him again. Were grateful that he eventually did his job but it shouldnt come down to begging for someone to do a service that youre paying them to do. Edit to reply: I don’t need a thorough response or answer from you concerning my wife’s case, I’m not including her name. I spoke to Stephanie regarding the matter and got some of what I needed to figure out things on my own. This review is solely to document our experience for others to see. I probably wouldn’t have even written one if it weren’t for your negligence in not informing us of the super speeder fine that led to her having a suspended license.

1 /5 L.S: I’m sharing my personal experience with attorney Frank Carter. I informed him on more than one occasion that I had video evidence that could impact my sons case. On April 28, 2025, I reminded him by phone, but he never asked to see it. When my daughter and I tried to visit the office to show the video, the police were called and we were trespassed from the property. My son remains in custody, and his health has deteriorated. I will be filing a formal complaint with the State Bar. I hope this helps others seeking responsive legal representation. Edit to Reply : While I understand your comment, my review is based on my direct experience as the parent of a client you were representing. Although you did not represent me personally, you were HIRED BY ME to represent my son, and I communicated with you multiple times regarding his case. I shared important information, including the existence of video evidence, and expressed concerns about his medical condition and access to fair legal support. This review reflects the impact your handling of his case had on our family. I still will be taken steps to bring my concerns to the appropriate authorities, including the State Bar, and will let them determine whether your actions were in line with your professional responsibilities.

1 /5 Jasmine S: if I could leave zero stars I would have. frank carter represented me almost 3 years ago. I made a huge mistake. I wouldn’t recommend him to anybody at all. Mr. Carter did not contact me about my case.and still haven’t contacted me about probation that I’m no longer suppose to be on nor has he updated me about what’s going on. I find it very unprofessional of him and his staff. Every time I would call they say he is either away from his desk. or on the phone. It’s always an excuse. He hasn’t returned any of my calls. No I wouldn’t recommend him for a case like this or no case period. You better off with a public defender. I’m very upset about this because I gave him my hard earned money to represent me. and he won’t even return my freaking call! Do not let frank carter represent you!!!
