The team at Carrier Law is showing our gratitude this year to the families we serve. For the second year in a row, families were served hot cocoa and individually wrapped decorated sugar cookies as they drove up to our office. What a festive way to say ‘Thank You’ and spread holiday cheer!
Hannah Green at Carrier Law, headed up a food drive to support Meals on Wheels of Western Michigan. “This food drive is a great way for us to give back to our community- the food will be used to stock the senior food pantry in Kent County,” said Hannah. “It is always a good time to donate, but right now more than ever it is important that we come together and help our community get through the winter months. The pandemic has put many people in unfortunate circumstances, and this is a small way that we can give back.” The goal was to collect 250 items from the team and that goal was surpassed.

We are so excited to see you and provide you with in-person meetings! We have had to make some small changes to ensure the safety of the families we serve and our team. We are excited to welcome you back and our team is ready for your visit.
We have always had the very highest standards for cleaning. We clean going above and beyond CDC, OSHA, MIOSHA & Health Department standards each day, and after every meeting. Your health and safety along with that of our team is our top priority. We cannot wait to meet with you. If you have any questions concerning our reopening process, feel free to reach out to us.
Fondly,
The Carrier Law Team

The fight to end Alzheimer’s is a cause particularly dear to Carrier Law. We’ve seen firsthand the devastating effects of this disease, and we’re dedicated to doing our part to get closer to a cure.
Every September, we participate in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s as the “Carrier’s Calvary” team. Each year, we raise the fundraising bar to a new goal, and so far, we’ve hit or surpassed our goal every year!
On a August 9, we held our annual outdoor event to admire cool cars, dine on local eats, and raise money for our Walk to End Alzheimer’s team.
Thank you to Andi B Photography for capturing the event!
On August 21, Buffalo Wild Wings donated 20% of their profits from the entire day to Carrier Law’s team for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s.
On September 9, the Carrier Law team became honorary employees at the Culver’s on Alpine. In return, Culver’s donated 10% of their profits from 5-8pm!
On September 14 in Grand Rapids and September 21 in Holland, the Carrier Law team and their family members joined hundreds of people from West Michigan to “walk the walk” in the fight to end Alzheimer’s.
We look forward to reaching a new goal in 2020!
Enjoy an evening of friendship, wine, and hors d’oeuvres to help raise funds for services that support widowed community members. Carrier Law is proud to return as a sponsor and invites you to attend as our guest!

It was a hot, hot, hot summer night. And what better way to end the day than a movie, friendship, popcorn, snacks, and air-conditioning. Carrier Law was the proud sponsor of Wednesday Night at the Movies at Evergreen Commons in Holland. It was fun to meet new folks, speak with clients, and enjoy the show.
