Caroline Walters is AMAZING! Caroline is down to earth, as a kind and genuine caring person! I have my case going on with a terrible narcissist who lied in court and took my children overnight away from me, and Caroline is the one that is completely supportive not only emotionally but mainly professionally. She is responsive with quality of knowledge as well as effective and efficient explanation. Thank you Caroline, in my darkest moments in life, your understanding and silent support is So So helpful. Thank you so much!Anonymous
