He is recognized as a Super Lawyer and is a member of the Million Dollar and Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum.As a member of the Texas Trial Lawyer’s Association, American Association for Justice, American Bar Association, Bell County Bar Association, Fort Hood Bar Association, Association of Plaintiff’s Interstate Trucking Lawyers and the Christian Legal Society, Carlson stays active within the legal community and continues to regard the experience and knowledge of his peers.
