Caryn’s accessment of my case was completely wrong; which was only because she never had the information from the prosecutor therefore, she could not make a proper recommendation or negotiate a serious plea agreement. Caryn was more focused on being a community activist, delivering bottled water to the residents of Florida instead of examining the charges and advising me of the best legal approach to reaching an acceptable resolution. I had spent over $4,000 to her firm to handle a divorce and pending criminal charges. During the five months of being a client, her office staff lost documents and blamed LegalShield for loosing the documents. Then they lost a check and blamed that on the US Postal Service. I finally had to retain another attorney, that was more familiar with the judicial system in Cobb County and respected among his peers. Caryn Fennell had never been heard of in Cobb County and gets the majority of her clients through LegalShield.
I was advised that attorneys that rely on agencies like LegalShield to feed them clients, are not very reliable attorneys. Well, in my opinion that is why I am writing this review. I want to bring some awareness about this attorney based on my personal experience. I had to retain another more experienced attorney at the last minute to negotiate a much better plea agreement with the exact same prosecutor Caryn Fennell said refused to make another offer!!! Thank God I knew better than to accept the offer Caryn suggested. Now, thanks to my new attorney, my charges will be dismissed in a year and my criminal record will be completely expunged.
I have canceled my membership with LegalShield and filed a formal complaint with them regarding their referral of Caryn Fennell. I have read previous reviews on Caryn however, based on my experience with Caryn and her inefficient staff, my review can not be a favorable review. I do not recommend this attorney to anyone to handle any legal matter.
Her attention to detail is second to none as she is not only an outstanding lawyer, top notch investigator, but ultimately she became a family friend.
I will always be grateful to Caryn and her legal team as she comes with the highest form of recommendation from me.

I hired Caryn in the middle of my case after an incredible amount of deception and criminal actions against me were discovered. Me and my children were thrown into what came to be over a 2 year legal battle for just a short 3 year marriage from a woman I met on the internet. Defending my prenup agreement and having to watch my children be thrown into this divorce and go through such a traumatic experience was heart wrenching.
The incredible amount of research and investigation that had to be done to disprove all the lies was incredibly substantial. The incredible emotional and financial trauma to my life and the lives of my children is something that unfortunately will be very hard to fully recover from. However, the end results because of Caryn and her team, gave my children a chance to move forward in the best way we can.
There are so many things that I have learned about the legal system and found out that there are ways that others will find a way to abuse it at every opportunity. I believe the fault lies with those that abuse the process that is intended for those that are truly harmed. That if you are in the right and are fighting for your rights and the rights of your children, you need to fight for justice and not let others intimidate you into submission and silence you with threats.
That is where Caryn comes in. While I will say that I am somewhat passive by nature, my passivity and trusting nature is what got me in that position to begin with. I was first overwhelmed by how Caryn seemed to be such a bulldog for parental rights and those rights of children. Caryn and her team went to work right away and eventually won our case. We came back from an incredibly poor position because of the deceitful and criminal actions of some of the parties early on in the case. The world needs attorneys like Caryn Fennell. Had I not hired her, gave up and just capitulated to the other sides demands I would have essentially lost my relationship with my children, all based on nothing but lies and deception.
I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation to Caryn Fennell and her Team for the tremendous work they have done for me and my children.
These last two years have been so emotionally exhausting for me and definitely the most difficult time in my life. During this time I have managed to come in contact with some of the most amazing people. I am so grateful for all the work they have all put in for me and my children during this difficult time.
At times what seemed hopeless and just for lack of a better word "crazy", was turned into a situation which was favorable and we ended up winning our case essentially getting enforcement of my prenup and ending up exactly with what we offered when I filed for divorce. All the hours, the dedication, and passion put in, to come to this resolution is an incredible victory not just for me and my boys, but for other parents that are put in such a terrible position There is certainly hope with attorneys like Caryn Fennell at your side.
I was kept in check many times as it was hard to not be emotional during this case. Caryn was AMAZING and it was hard to not be emotional as she was giving her closing statement. She brought it all together from the beginning to the end and gave the Judge and the court a picture of what we all had to go through to prove our case. I can't say enough of how incredibly impressed I am with Caryn and all of her staff for the outcome. I will be forever grateful and every time I look at my children I am reminded of all the people that have helped to bring them back into my life.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
Caryn and her team have given my children a chance to have BOTH parents in their lives. They have given my children back an opportunity that was taken from them in such an abrupt and egregious way.
An incredible Thank you to Caryn and her team!

Her knowledge of the law, her determination in making things happen, her demeanor in and out of the court room, she worked tirelessly on my case even on the weekends, her staff is great to work with, and her arguments and credibility in front of the judge – I give all these things 10 out of 10 stars! There was literally a moment during a not pretty final hearing in front of the judge where I turned and looked at her senior paralegal and said “My God, Caryn is amazing at what she does” because she went point by point nailing down every aspect of my case for the judge after the opposing attorney tried to come at me and efficiently proved that so much of what they were saying were lies.
Caryn, I can’t say it enough but thank you for the way you handled all aspects of my case. As you know, my only regret is that I didn’t have you during the first part of my divorce or I wouldn’t have gotten run over like I did with my previous attorney.
