About Ms. Candace Ellene Rader

Where Our Firm BeganLead attorney, Candace E. Rader, was inspired to get into law by her father, who was a practicing attorney for more than 60 years. Accepted to practice law by the Georgia Bar in 1989, Ms. Rader has aggressively and successfully handled hundreds of cases involving a variety of family law and criminal defense issues. When Ms. Rader came to Carrollton, there were no full-time female trial lawyers in town. So, in 1995, she established her law firm, Candace E. Rader, P.C., which has been serving residents throughout Carroll County and West Georgia for more than 20 years. She believes strongly in fighting for her clients and honoring the principles our founding fathers established. Where We Are Now Our firm today continues to put the law on your side and takes the time to explain everything to you in an easy-to-understand manner. We believe in always providing prompt and friendly service that delves deeply into your legal issue from the very beginning. We will then stay with you through the entire process, making sure your outcome is the best one for your situation.Though we are tenacious in the courtroom, we offer a relaxed yet professional atmosphere at our law office in Carrollton. We take the time to listen to your circumstances, while helping you understand your options and the steps you need to take to get to a successful resolution. Lead attorney Candace E. Rader may wear her heart on her sleeve during her meetings with you, but you will always leave your consultations knowing she cares about you and is fighting for the best possible outcome for you and your family. Upon entering the office you may be greeted by two cats and a friendly chocolate lab.

Hired Attorney

Worked out my extremely tense divorce. I notice a bad review from a "peer." That review is likely a now "retired" local attorney who was bitter.

These FAQs include information about a lawyer's background, but do not evaluate their knowledge of the law, past performance on individual cases, personality, or communication skills.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

You should be aware that the information we rely upon may not be comprehensive, or frequently updated.

Always research the lawyer further to get a better understanding of their license credentials, disciplinary status, background, and experience.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions
