“Thank you so much for your gift of chocolates. I greatly appreciate your thoughtfulness and generosity, and it is me who should be thanking the two of you for the great work that you have done for the clients that we have referred to you. We greatly appreciate the way you have handled everyone that we have sent your way”. - Timothy E. Powers, Partner, Haynes & Boone, LLP.
"Carla was my lawyer both for my divorce and later to work out my prenuptial agreement when I got married again. I was impressed by how much she cared about 'getting it right'. She tried very hard to understand not just legal aspects but what was necessary to make an agreement that everyone felt was acceptable. For my divorce she suggested that we work through the collaborative law model, and I have to say that was the best decision that we made, because it forced us to talk face-to-face and settle the issues rather than handle [them] back and forth through lawyers. I have appreciated everything that she has done for me and would recommend her heartily."

"Working with Carla made a difficult situation one of growth and learning. Her professionalism, combined with caring and commitment, allowed us to
achieve a very good outcome for all, and in a collaborative fashion. Wouldn't it be great if most of the world operated this way?" - President and CEO, Nonprofit Organization
"Divorce is a painful event, but if there was a way to lessen the pain, Collaborative Divorce is the way to go. My wife and I had decided to end our 10-year marriage. We wanted to do it as amicably, fairly and easily as possible. Traditional divorce creates barriers between the parties and advocates antagonistic behavior. In the end of a traditional divorce, a judge decides based on the evidence presented. Collaborative divorce lessens the adversity and puts the power to finish the relationship back in your hands. The process is legal and logical. Lawyers help you work out any legal issues, but all of the separation of property is decided by you and your ex-spouse. It truly is a revolutionary way to approach what is arguably the worst event besides death. Carla and her team provide excellent, personalized counseling. They have seen the ugly side of divorce and fight for a better way for marriages to end legally. Carla sets the example for other collaborative law attorneys. Her caring attitude ensures that the divorce is as good as it can be for both sides, because let's face it, there are no winners in a divorce. But Carla and her team can lessen the sting of losing for both sides. This is the beauty of a Collaborative Divorce -- all parties are held to higher standards to settle things fairly and without the typical antics that some divorces experience. I would HIGHLY recommend Carla and her team for anyone who is thinking about divorce." - Director of System Engineering for local IT Firm
"I am eternally grateful to Calabrese Huff for the handling of my adoption case. Carla and her staff went over and above the call of duty in assisting my husband and I in a complicated surrogacy/adoption case and confusing insurance case. Her persistence with our insurance company saved us in the neighborhood of 1 million dollars and her personal touch comforted my anxious heart. I feel so blessed to have had her law firm represent me at such a sensitive and difficult time." - Adoptive Mother
"I am the mother of a little girl from Russia because Carla wouldn't give up when things got rough. While Carla possesses many excellent qualities -- integrity, intelligence, resourcefulness -- that make her a great lawyer, what sets her apart is that she cares. I am forever in her debt." - Partner in Large Corporate Law Firm and Adoptive Mother
"Carla is the visionary who has blazed the path to quality collaborative law in Texas. She has translated her experience in the field to improvements in the process that truly will benefit Texas and ultimately the international practice of collaborative law. The motivation she feels to help families come out of a divorce process whole, along with her fine intellect and compassion, inspires her to find the most creative solutions and best possible outcomes for her clients. As a practitioner who has served as the collaborative lawyer for her client's spouse in a number of cases, I cannot think of anyone with whom I would rather collaborate." - Collaborative Lawyer and Mediator

Thank you." - Partner in a Large Corporate Law Firm
