There are less than 300 attorneys in all of North Carolina with the State Bar’s distinction of Certified Family Law Specialist. Woodruff Family Law Group prides itself on having five of them. In fact, Greensboro divorce attorney Carolyn J. Woodruff was in the first group recognized for the certification. To become a family law specialist, an individual must be a licensed attorney in good standing, have practiced in family law for the 5 years preceding application with a minimum of 600 hours per year, have completed 45 hours of continuing legal education courses in the 3 years preceding application, gained 10 peer reviews from attorneys and/or judges in good-standing, and finally, complete and pass a 6-hour exam offered only once per year. Carolyn is joined by four other North Carolina State Bar Certified Family Law Specialists, Jonathan D. Csuka, Jessica S. Bullock, Adam D. Furr and Taylor D. Clay, all Directors of the firm. All five specialists excel in complex cases including child custody, equitable distribution, and appeals.
The remaining three associate attorneys are highly qualified, were in the top of their law school cohorts, and provide the service excellence Woodruff Family Law Group is known for. Most importantly, they help to round out the Woodruff Family Law Group legal team, which enables the firm to support a diverse group of clients. While the roles of Hannah E. Smith and Dean Michaux, and Michael Yin do not involve individual client loads, they are often the backbone of many cases and their preparation.
Our support staff includes four North Carolina Certified Paralegals and two of them have been with the firm for over ten years. Additionally, we boast six highly educated legal assistants with qualifications such as accounting, administration, document management, technology, and family law crisis intervention. Our large support staff enables us to provide better-customized services and support to clients. Furthermore, we aim to provide resources that allow individuals to move forward with their lives.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
Carolyn Woodruff was tenacious, knowledgeable, and thorough. She and her team helped me check my emotions at the door and handle this as a business transaction. Quite often I would have questions or need documents explained to me, and both Steve and Ben did a good job explaining things. The firm was welcoming, and the support staff were friendly, professional, and helpful. D.M. ★★★★★
When we met Jon Csuka, he went over everything for the prenup well and was very quick to get the document to us. He knows what he’s doing, and knew exactly what we were doing. He would follow up with me when I wasn’t responding and stayed on top of me, making sure we were getting everything done. V.B. ★★★★★
Taylor Clay was phenomenal. You weren’t just another person walking in with the same story, she was someone who really cared. I loved that every time I needed an answer, she was back to me within a few hours that day. I spoke to Josh a few times, he was very thoughtful, and he was the same – just very thoughtful, if he couldn’t answer a question legally he would advise me what to do with talking to Taylor and always made sure everything was taken care of.
