Carolyn "Care" HorbaczOffice Administrator - Paralegal
csh@garvinlegal.com

Carolyn was born in Michigan and when she was 14 she moved to Southwest Florida with her family. While a senior at Riverdale High School, "Care" was recruited to be an intern at Moorey, Seals & Garvin. After a few months at the desk, she was hired on full-time beginning her career with Jeff of more than 35 years.

Within these last thirty plus years Carolyn has worked with Jeff acting as his right hand. Jeff often refers to Carolyn as his other law partner as her insight, thoroughness and legal ability exceeds that of many attorneys. With any serious injury case Carolyn knows how to deal with both the investigation, litigation and trial preparation. 

When Carolyn is not taking care of business at the Garvin Injury Law, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, as well as bowling and playing penny slots. She is also known to "bake" a dessert or two!
