Carter Eliot Sears
I have been practicing law since 1990.
I practice in two primary areas: family law and criminal defense.
In criminal cases, I have successfully defended people charged with the highest level felonies on down to traffic infractions. I leave no stone unturned.
In family law, I have handled complex multi-million dollar property issues, child custody and support, spousal support, domestic violence cases, and practically every matter facing those seeking the help of the family courts.
I have trained with the Northern California Mediation Center, Divorce Mediation, and Gary Friedman of The Center for Understanding in Conflict & The Center for Mediation in Law. If you have a family law matter, I urge you to consider mediation as a first and perhaps final step in the process.
