I hired Carla Terre Boyd in the middle of a contentious divorce.
I had been in the process of divorce for several months when I found Carla. She was an absolute life saver. I was well on my way to losing custody of my three lovely daughters due to the mishandling of my case by my previous lawyers. I hired and fired two lawyers before I found Carla and I am so glad I did.
Carla listened to me. She listened to me attentively and made me feel heard. Carla made me feel as if I were her most important client from the very first time we interacted. I knew she heard me because she immediately took action and started addressing the key areas of concern that I had. She also made me aware of important factors that I had not previously considered. She was focused and sharp every time we interacted. It felt great to have such a consummate professional in my corner.
I knew what it felt like to be poorly represented so it was really refreshing to know I had such a formidable legal mind working for my best interests.
The outcome of my divorce was far better than I expected. I credit Carla with achieving results that my two previous lawyers told me were flat out unrealistic.
Regardless of what dirty tricks were employed by my ex wife and her sleazy lawyer Carla responded appropriately and professionally. Despite my own inclinations to sink to that level she encouraged me to take the high road both legally and personally and I'm so glad I did. It was the right thing to do and paid off in the long run for me and my case.
I highly recommend Carla Terre Boyd to anyone in need of a family law attorney. Her office staff are a pleasure to work with and Carla herself is at the top of her game. I will always be grateful to Carla for helping me through one of the most difficult periods of my life.

Divorce. This is one of the most complex, painful and confusing processes for all individuals who must go down this path.
Divorce equals dignity. Divorce equals respect. Divorce is not the stripping down of one’s self esteem, but the power to keep their family, finances and future in tact separately.
For the last 8 months, Carla enjoyed using her "writing abilities" as an English major and not her ethical and responsible conduct as a family law attorney. She encouraged poor behavior of her client and his distant family to alienate his immediate family.
I have worked as a legal assistant for years and find it detrimental to any client to have to be exposed to this type of poor representation and allow an attorney to encourage her clients to alienate from their innocent grandchildren and other family members for her financial gain.
It is a sad conclusion that such innocent individuals put their trust in someone who is deceitful, unethical and untrustworthy.
The only individuals who suffer from Carla's decisions are those who she has encouraged to alienate from their families. Most recent fact is tonight my husband called my father. My father said that he could not speak with him due to an email that my husband sent to Carla that he was mad about. Carla made my father feel as if his memory is not as sharp. It isn't. None of us have the sharp minds as we use to have. This is not rocket science. This is a fact. Post-It Notes. Why were they invented? To allow all individuals to keep personal and business daily, weekly and monthly reminders. This is not a big deal, but once again, Carla had to take advantage of an 83 year old man and spin our personal family issues out of control. My father saw what your office was spending without his authorization and he complained to us that after he said he repeatedly asked your office to not continue to fight, you did the opposite. You did not allow him to have a voice. He has a voice Carla and he has every right to be heard, acknowledged and respected.
To all individuals who are seeking honest Family Law advice. Do your due diligence. Conduct interviews at other law firms in Santa Rosa. There are many wonderful firms who will work for the benefit of you and your family to ensure that your family matters are truly handled in an amicable way and not to abuse their finances and chip away at their retirement and life's hard work and savings.
Shame on you Carla. Shame on you for taking advantage of my father and constantly encouraging him to turn his back on the only family that he has known all of his life. It is a shameful and horrible act that you have done to him. He is my father and the grandfather to two great young men. Both young men are bright, successful and driven. The joy in my father's eyes when he see's his grandson's or hears their voices, is a joy that will continually be embedded in our hearts and our memory of the love that they have for one another that will forever remain.
Unlike you Carla, family comes before finances. Family is the key to our success. Family is what makes us thrive and puts the biggest smiles on our faces each and every day!
