Experienced, caring, and diligent work! The level of professionalism and expertise was apparent from the start. Attorney Andrew Stacey did a great job at making me feel hopefully for resolution in my case. Along, with his assistant, Attorney Stacey was able to handle my complicated case with such delicacy, sensitivity and understanding. There was exceptional and effective communications between me, Attorney Stacey and his assistant, helping to keep me up to date with my case. I had terrible anxiety throughout the duration of my case, and even so, I was respected and heard about all of my concerns, which assured me that I was getting the best representation. His skill is showcased in his work, I have often noted that Attorney Stacey has a way of making things look easy. He is meticulous, very organized, and does not skip a beat when handling a case. I've had the pleasure to witness and personally experience how Attorney Stacey is willing to go above and beyond to defend his clients. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the services and professionalism provided by Voyager Law Group. Thank you Attorney Stacey for all you were able to accomplish for me and my family. I am grateful and forever appreciative! I would highly recommend Voyager Law Group to anyone who is in need of outstanding legal assistance. Andrew Stacey is the Attorney to seek!

Andrew was very passionate about helping me out of my domestic violence case. The terms of the case were clear to him that I was innocent and he got two cases dismissed with the same woman who just liked to call the police on me.

Nothing but great things to say about Attorney Andrew Stacey. Andrew is a consummate professional and is extremely good at what he does — which is provide you with honest and accurate legal advice with no nonsense. In my opinion, Andrew’s level of integrity and honesty puts him in a class above. I could not have had someone represent myself and my interests better.

My husband and I recently worked with Michelle Beneski at Surprenant and Beneski and we could not have been more satisfied or pleased. The level of expertise; attention to detail; empathy, knowledge and patience that Michelle brought to the table and entire process was tremendously helpful and greatly appreciated. A year before going to Michelle for estate planning, she helped us on a moment’s notice with a pressing matter regarding my very elderly father-in-law and did so with great compassion, urgency, efficiency, and kindness. Michelle‘s entire team - from the person that answers the phone to the one who manages her schedule to everyone else in her office - is quite wonderful and extremely helpful, responsive and professional. I work in the senior living industry and have referred many families to Michelle. To be able to refer someone to a professional with confidence, knowing they will be treated with honesty, integrity and expertise is very important to me. I cannot recommend Michelle and Surprenant and Beneski highly enough.

I contacted Tasha after trying to handle my divorce alone to no resolve. Tasha had me re-filed and divorced in less time than I had waited for my initial court date when I filed alone. She had my family's best interest at heart, and I was able to focus on my kids while she handled everything for me. Her office staff was great to work with as well. I knew I was in good hands from day one. I am looking forward to working together on my estate planning next.

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for all of the hard work and support Tasha Buzzell and her team gave me during my contempt hearing. Having to go through the frustration of filing a contempt was one of the most difficult times in my life, and her expertise, professionalism, and guidance made the process so much easier. From the first consultation, she listened to me and helped me understand the legal process involved in fighting for a contempt complaint. She was always there for me, whether it was to answer my questions, provide reassurance, or simply lend an ear when I needed to talk. Throughout the proceedings, she handled everything with care, precision, and a deep understanding of the law keeping me informed every step of the way and ensuring me that my best interests were always at the forefront of the case. I am grateful for everything that she has done for me and my family, and I would highly recommend Tasha Buzzell and Associates LLC to anyone navigating through the family court system.

I called Brian Roman out of the blue one cold and desperate morning after spending the night in jail- charged with something I did not do. I was in tough shape. Yet, Brian’s voice calmed me down and gave me encouragement. He took the case, and over the course of 10 months, he saved my life over and over again. He even went to Police HQ with me one night to explain the law to some overzealous officers who were threatening to arrest me. He saved me from jail that night, and in the end, got the “Not Guilty” verdict that rang True. He worked hard for that verdict. And I know he’ll do the same for you. Brian knows his stuff, inside and out, and he’ll see that justice is served. And his fees are very reasonable. Brian is an excellent attorney.

Brian is an exceptional attorney. If Brian had not helped my fiance, unlike his public defender that my fiance had at the time stabbed him in the back at the last minute and he probably would be sitting in jail right now. My fiance is a good man and did not deserve to be treated that way. Brian was a life saver. Now my fiance is doing so very well and has grown a great deal. If it wasn't for Brian I don't know where we would be today.

I am incredibly grateful to have had Marc represent me in a highly contentious custody case that resulted in a life-changing outcome. What began as a custody case quickly evolved into a complex, multi-day trial with my ex-wife filing for permanent removal from Massachusetts and multiple states being involved. With Marc’s representation, I was awarded full physical custody and final decision-making authority in legal matters concerning my Child. Prior to Marc taking my case, I had no custodial rights over my daughter and no guaranteed visitation schedule. My case was far from an easy one as I felt like my rights as a father had been completely given up. Marc demonstrated unparalleled expertise in probate law throughout the entire process. He meticulously prepared my case, reviewed the history, and presented it compellingly in court. His knowledge of family law and probate procedures was evident in every strategy and argument presented. Marc’s intimate knowledge of the probate courts in Massachusetts and his focus on the legal facts were key to the outcome of my case. Marc’s dedication and personal investment in my case were clearly evident from the beginning. He took the time to understand the nuances of my situation, showing genuine empathy and support. Marc was readily available throughout the process and always kept me informed and answered the multitude of questions I had throughout the case. Marc’s communication was always clear and realistic throughout the process. Marc provides honest assessments of what can be hoped for in a case and appreciates the entirety of a situation. I never felt like Marc was exaggerating the prospects of a potential outcome; his immediate honesty surrounding the difficulty of my case was reassuring to hear as I understood what I was seeking for an outcome. His ability to break down the complex legal terminology into relevant ideas and the core components allowed me to better understand what was happening throughout the process. His communication was clear and reassuring, keeping me informed and involved at every stage of the proceedings. Thanks to Marc’s representation and commitment, I now have the opportunity to provide a stable and loving environment for my daughter. I cannot recommend Marc highly enough to anyone facing similar challenges in probate court. He is not just a lawyer but a true advocate for his clients who displays a genuine care about you and your family.

Adrienne was great to work with! She was prompt, knowledgeable, and super helpful. My green card application has been "pending" for multiple years and there were plans to go on a family vacation. However, it had been so long that even my extension had expired as well. My partner and I met with Adrienne for the hour consultation. She convinced me while this application was being considered applying for citizenship might be worth it, so I could vote, and additionally not have to deal with these travel logistics in the future. I had spent weeks and months trying to get a call to get an appointment and nothing was happening and I was getting extremely frustrated. It was coming down to the wire, and I required an ADIT stamp in my passport to travel. I went into the office, chatting with someone on the US Immigration website, called - all to no avail. Adrienne was able to call the office and get the name of the supervisor on duty. She called and let me know if I could go down to the immigration office that day and ask for Officer ____ (I don't remember his name), I could get a stamp and be on my way. Sure enough we went in, asked for the supervisor and he took us back. It took a total of 5 minutes, he took my expired card, put in a stamp in my passport and I was good to go. If it wasn't for Adrienne I never would have been able to go on my family vacation. She was as sincere as she was helpful. Thanks, Adrienne!

Attorney Joseph Zlatnik saved me from the worst debacle of my life. His utter command of the drama of the courtroom surpasses anything you’ll ever see in the movies. While his uncanny sense of timing and nuance, his deft, on-the-fly decision-making and his personal charm provide ample ammunition to win your case, Attorney Zlatnik’s powers are never more keenly felt than in his preparations for the court date: He coached me with mock trial tactics and devoted generous time to getting to know not only the details of my case, but - my self, personally. (He also gave me a valuable tip on how to dress for the hearing so I would appear non-threatening.) He thoroughly briefed me in the basis for my defense - which was firmly rooted in the U.S. Constitution. By the time we got to court, Attorney Zlatnik had prepared me (and himself) so well that he was able to bring out the very best aspects of my character before the judge, meanwhile waving our Republic’s highest law like a banner in my defense. Like a true virtuoso, he even gently highlighted certain weaknesses of the plaintiff that proved crucial to my defense without appearing hostile toward her. Under Attorney Zlatnik’s council, I went from dreading my court date to almost looking forward to it, and I will always recall it as a bitter-sweet, poignant turning-point of my life. He not only won my case, he treated a delicate situation involving a sensitive, emotionally fragile plaintiff (dearly beloved by the defendant) with such charity and kindness that one of the guards commented it was one of the 'best days that courtroom had ever seen'. The whole experience gave me a hope that our Constitution still reigns, and that our processes of law are not yet totally corrupt.

I have to start by saying I simply cannot recommend Joe highly enough. A few months ago, I found myself in the unfortunate position of needing a criminal defense attorney. As this was completely uncharted territory for me, I first turned to the internet, then reached out to an attorney friend in Boston who referred me to Joe. From day one, I was so impressed with Joe’s manner and knowledge. With an upbeat attitude, he patiently walked me through the legal process, describing in explicit detail the steps we could expect to take and possible outcomes for each. I hired Joe immediately and we would have several more very helpful conversations prior to my first court appearance. At the hearing, Joe presented my side masterfully and we received the best possible outcome. If you are in need of a criminal defense attorney and, as I did, have turned to internet searching with hopes of finding one, I implore you to stop now and call Joe Zlatnik. You’ll be very glad you did.

My referral to Pam Schaefer occurred during a very confusing and stressful time. My original attorney, who had very ably represented me, knew that there were remaining issues after the final ruling that would necessitate ongoing litigation. He was not keen on this, as he had developed an antipathy to my ex-wife. He suggested someone different, and recommended someone he had very high regard for. I was apprehensive, needless to say. During our first meeting Pam succinctly outlined the issues. She also accurately, it turned out, predicted the uphill climb we faced. Never wavering, staunchly in my corner, she and her office shepherded me through this very trying minefield. Yes, it is true: after a settlement both parties should be a little unhappy. Schaefer law kept my unhappiness manageable. Much appreciated.

Mr. Sawin helped me during a particularly stressful time when my divorce agreement and child support were being modified. He was very straightforward and responsive. His office staff and junior attorneys were kind and helpful. There were multiple challenges related to my case, including Covid-19. At the end of it all, I had the result that I wanted. I am very grateful for the peace of mind that I had knowing that he was representing my interests throughout an emotionally trying time. I will also add that choosing him to represent me for the modification was one of the best decisions that I made - I believe having a strong advocate with experience in the local courts allowed for a quick resolution.

As a client of Sawin Law I was treated with courtesy and respect. Throughout the time it took for Sawin Law to resolve my personal representative appointment and inheritance distribution the firm was professional and able to easily solve any challenges. I highly recommend Sawin Law.

I have been a self-employed business owner for 34 years, and have had experience with several attorneys. I and my company were sued with no good cause by an individual for financial damages, and this action lasted about 3 years. I can honestly say without reservation, and with my strongest possible recommendation, that Chris Fein is the finest and most skillful and knowledgeable attorney I have ever encountered. He is extremely intelligent and thoughtful, takes the time to listen and understand all of the issues at hand, and how they affect you or your business, is a master strategist, of the highest ethics both professionally and personally, and is very adroit verbally at the bar or in legal conference. He is also very patient and understanding, realizing that most clients are not legally educated. I would urge anyone reading this to retain his services if needed, and confer my very highest possible recommendation on his behalf.

Not knowing if I even needed an attorney I spoke with Attorney Benner on the phone, he was aware right away that I did not need an attorney, however that didn’t stop him from going out of his way to continue to explain a lot of information to me about my situation and actually educate me about it. I do not usually leave reviews, however it was refreshing to be treated respectfully by an attorney. He was actually a really nice guy.

Anton Reinert represented me in a long divorce process. He invariably responded to me in a timely manner with exactly the amount of information I needed to feel less worried and clear-minded. This ability to trust him and his guidance improved my quality of life during a difficult time. I appreciated his integrity in guiding me toward a solution that best matched my means and my interests. He is not a lawyer who wants to keep things going to make more money. I interviewed a number of attorneys before hiring him and believe he has a refreshing, efficient, approach in an aggressive arena. Anton has an air-tight understanding of the law and ethics that go along with the law. He also offers availability for communication at any inquiry and has a kind manner that isn't required, but that helps; especially at a difficult point in anyone's life. Working with Anton is easy. Anton's approach makes you want to rise to meet the situation, handle it well, and come out as a better person.

McKenzie assisted me with my real estate sale. This wasn't easy because I'm 1300 miles away out of state. She made it easy, was GREAT with communication and went above and beyond. So glad she was recommended to me and I can't endorse her any stronger. The firm is very lucky to have her. You will not regret hiring her for any of your legal needs.

I wholeheartedly recommend Attorney George MacKoul to anyone seeking a powerful, highly skilled attorney who will advocate tirelessly on their behalf. Attorney MacKoul is a brilliant gentleman whose ethical standards of legal practice are truly commendable. He clearly has an in-depth understanding of the law and has a remarkable ability to navigate complex legal issues with precision and insight. Throughout my case, Attorney MacKoul demonstrated an extraordinary ability to listen, understand, and provided thoughtful counsel. He made me feel safe on this sad and emotional rollercoaster that I had unexpectedly found myself on. I am profoundly grateful for Attorney MacKoul's expertise and unwavering support. He not only achieved a favorable outcome for my case but did so in a manner that preserved my mother’s dignity and respected her last wishes. George, thank you for your kindness and grace. You are a true beacon of ethical practice and integrity in the legal profession!

The best lawyer hands down! I was searching for a lawyer for 9 months plus, and I feel like first impression, as well as your gut feeling is a big deciding factor when choosing a partner to assist you when the time is needed, I've been working with George and his staff for over a year now, even though my case is a year or more and hopefully being done, I would not have wanted anybody else in my corner! George and his staff have become friends, allies as well as inspirational, win or lose I wouldn't want anybody else on this case! Do not think twice about George and his staff! I wish there was a way to give more than five stars!

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer

When meeting with a lawyer for the first time, it's important to ask the right questions to understand their expertise and determine if they're the right fit for your legal needs. Here are some top questions to consider:

    Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case.
  2. How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.
  3. What potential outcomes can I expect from my case?
    While no lawyer can guarantee results, they can provide an assessment of possible scenarios based on their experience.
  4. What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
    Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
  5. Who will be working on my case?
    Find out if the lawyer will handle your case personally or delegate tasks to other attorneys or paralegals.
  6. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
    Establish expectations for updates, preferred communication methods, and response times.
  7. What is the likely timeline for resolving my case?
    Get an estimate of how long the process may take from start to finish.
  8. Do you have references from past clients?
    Testimonials or references can provide insight into the lawyer's professionalism and effectiveness.
  9. What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
    Understanding potential challenges helps you prepare and sets realistic expectations.
  10. Are there alternative ways to solve my legal problem?
    Discuss options like mediation, arbitration, or settlement to resolve the issue efficiently.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

Before hiring a lawyer, it's crucial to verify their credibility and ensure they're qualified to handle your case:

  1. Verify Their License:
    Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  2. Experience and Specialization:
    Ensure the lawyer specializes in the area of law relevant to your case.
  3. Disciplinary Record:
    Look up any history of disciplinary actions or complaints through the state bar association.
  4. Client Reviews and Testimonials:
    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.
  5. Professional Memberships:
    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.
  6. Awards and Recognitions:
    Honors from reputable organizations reflect expertise and a positive reputation.
  7. Consultation Assessment:
    Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.
  8. Ask for References:
    A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a lawyer, come prepared with:

  1. Relevant Documents:
    Bring all documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, legal notices, court papers, or evidence.
  2. Written Summary:
    Prepare a concise written summary of your situation, including key dates, events, and involved parties.
  3. List of Questions:
    Write down any questions you have about your case, the legal process, or the lawyer's experience.
  4. Financial Information:
    If applicable, bring financial documents like pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements.
  5. Contact Information:
    Provide details of any witnesses or other parties relevant to your case.
  6. Personal Identification:
    Bring a valid ID for verification purposes.
  7. Pen and Notebook:
    Take notes during the consultation to remember important points.
  8. Budget Constraints:
    Be ready to discuss your budget and any financial limitations.

How Much Does a Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a lawyer varies widely based on several factors:

  • Fee Structures:
    • Hourly Rate:
      Lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on experience and location.
    • Flat Fee:
      For routine legal services like drafting a will or handling an uncontested divorce, lawyers might offer a flat fee.
    • Retainer Fee:
      An upfront payment against which the lawyer bills hourly fees.
    • Contingency Fee:
      Common in personal injury cases; the lawyer receives a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or award.
    • Monthly Retainer:
      For ongoing services, businesses might pay a monthly fee for a set number of hours or services.
  • Factors Affecting Cost:
    • Complexity of the Case:
      More complex cases require more time and resources, increasing costs.
    • Lawyer's Experience:
      Highly experienced lawyers may charge higher fees.
    • Geographic Location:
      Legal fees can vary significantly by region or city.
    • Additional Expenses:
      Court filing fees, expert witness fees, travel expenses, and administrative costs may be extra.
  • Estimating Total Costs:
    Request a detailed fee agreement outlining all potential costs.
    Discuss any additional expenses that may arise during the case.
  • Negotiating Fees:
    Some lawyers may be willing to negotiate fees or offer payment plans, especially for clients with financial constraints.
  • Pro Bono Services:
    For those who cannot afford legal services, some lawyers or legal aid organizations offer services at reduced rates or for free.
