Before joining Salvatore Prescott Porter & Porter, Carlye practiced at a Detroit-based litigation firm, where she focused on representing survivors of sexual abuse and victims of civil rights violations.
Early in her career, Carlye, in partnership with co-counsel, helped secure a $138.7 million settlement against the U.S. Department of Justice on behalf of survivors of sexual abuse by Dr. Larry Nassar. Carlye continues her commitment to pursuing transparency, justice, and accountability while providing each client with compassionate and effective advocacy.

She is also a member of the American Association for Justice (AAJ) and the National Crime Victims Bar Association. In 2026, Michigan Lawyers Weekly recognized Carlye as an “Up & Coming Attorney.”
