Skilled and compassionate guidance through a difficult divorce

Kristen Carr represented me during a complex and emotionally charged divorce involving significant property division. Her 13 years of experience were immediately apparent; she was both a patient listener and a strategic advocate. I particularly valued her ability to explain Texas family law clearly, which helped me make informed decisions. Her recognition by Fort Worth Inc. as a top attorney is well-deserved. While her expertise is top-tier, there were occasional delays in email responses during particularly busy periods, which was a minor frustration. Overall, I felt supported and competently guided by Kristen and the team at Varghese Summersett. I would confidently recommend her for any family law matter.
