I can't say enough about Kathleen Mangan and her team. I had a very difficult divorce situation which included needing a protection order and from the first moment I contacted Kathleen and her team, my anxiety was reduced. Not only did it take a fraction of the time I expected it to, the communication I received the entire time was top notch. She empowered me to be strong and do what was necessary to cross the finish line successfully while at the same time ensuring my safety. If you need an attorney who will ensure your best interests are at the forefront, who will take the time to educate you along the way on what your responsibility is and who truly has the expertise needed to successfully navigate the judicial system requirements effectively, then you want Kathleen and her team. Worth every penny and they will be on my list of my things to be thankful for every year from this point on! I wish they had a scale that went higher than 5 star here - Kathleen and her team more than exceeded my expectations and I would give them a million stars!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Janet! You were such a joy to work with and the entire staff adores you!

I requested a consultation for my recent divorce and child custody situation that became slightly complicated. I spoke with Matt Work and was overwhelmed with his honesty and realistic approach. I already had an idea about my situation and Matt confirmed my beliefs and presented realistic options and opinions about the matter. I appreciate Matt's direct approach and honest opinions about my situation. I would highly suggest this firm to anyone. It's obvious to me that this firm cares about the people they support and they wont BS you. Thank you Matt!

I recently had the opportunity to work with Phil Koci and Kenton Karrasch and was very impressed with the teamwork they both showed. Kenton initially handled the divorce portion of my case and then once things were complete to my extreme satisfaction, I was lucky enough to work with Phil to modify my estate and upgrade the estate documents. They were prompt, thorough and detailed with all of our correspondences. These people rock. I highly recommend Carlson & Work to anyone looking for a five star law firm !

10 Stars! I know lawyers get a bad wrap but this law firm ended up becoming more like family than a law firm to my family. I went through a very rough and heart breaking divorce. I felt totally lost. I can’t thank Rebecca Carlson and her team enough for being my North Star. Each step of the way, I knew what was going to happen and Rebecca’s dedication to me and my children is forever something I will be thankful for. If you were like me, scrolling through the list of lawyers to navigate the next couple rough months through, let me tell you, this is the best firm in Reno. No questions asked and there’s not even a close second. Thank you all!
