I use superlatives sparingly, but Lauren is exceptional. When I came to her, I had been thrust into the Twilight Zone - kicked out of my house, able to see my son only sporadically at my ex’s whim, feeling hopeless and powerless, and fearing for my child’s future. It was a situation I never anticipated finding myself in, and one I wouldn’t wish on anyone. Lauren immediately sprang into action, formulated a strategy, and explained how to execute it step by step. At each stage, it proved effective beyond my expectations. Over the course of a year, I exchanged over 300 emails with her and her staff, and most of mine were answered within minutes. She was always available and willing to communicate, explain, and answer questions. Through a very difficult and at times harrowing process, I never felt alone. Her staff was always friendly, patient, and supportive. Lauren’s extremely competent, hard-working, and meticulous. She was always very well prepared, and aware of the most minute relevant details. I felt my case always had her full attention, despite not being particularly lucrative. She’s also honest, ethical, and direct. This means you will not be overcharged, and also that she’ll never sugarcoat or overpromise, as other reviewers have said. My divorce and custody battle was hell, but Lauren made all the difference. I can move on with my life, and be there for my son. Enlisting her help was the one good decision I made in an otherwise very difficult situation.

I can’t find words to express my gratitude for an exceptionally excellent job Lauren had done during my divorce case which was finalized recently. She is truly the most intelligent, diligent, highly knowledgeable, confident, fearless and bold attorney. I didn’t start with Lauren but it was the best decision I made when I hired her (as my 3rd counsel) after firing two previous incompetent and non-transparent attorneys. The divorce was stuck and lingered unnecessarily for nearly 1 year before Lauren represented me. No attorney can beat Lauren in strategy, transparency, timely response, knowledge, and for an honest advocacy. At the court hearing, she communicated clearly with fact based evidences and fearless actions. She was able to make opposition to payback some of the fees. She is very caring and warmest human which we need during the divorce, and also she had been honestly upfront to me by providing true advice, had never promised anything that she couldn’t see within the reach by laws. Divorce is a tireless process and we need a caring and audacious attorney exactly like Lauren who is the BEST! Don’t waste your time and money (as I did by hiring two previous attorneys), just reach out to Popovitch Law and ask for Lauren and her team! You are truly lucky if she and her team can take your case. I wish I had started with Lauren! Highly recommended - 10/10.

Myself and my former roommates worked with Arthur in order to resolve a dispute with our former landlord. Arthur worked directly with us and was consistently attentive and professional throughout the process. He did an excellent job of explaining all applicable laws and procedures, thereby making the process far less stressful than we were expecting. Additionally, he helped us reach a highly favorable conclusion to the matter in a relatively short period of time and for very reasonable fees. I would highly recommend Arthur to anybody dealing with similar disputes and would not hesitate to hire him again in the future.

During the time, we understood that she is very much on hands person and stunning lawyer. Her expertise level, skills sets, putting together every details on time, made us felt we are in good hands. She quickly understands the needs of the clients and always going beyond clients' expectations. Briefly she is an amazing, exceptional lawyer and person.

#EB-1A Approved in 12 days only# At Casseus Law, Rachel told me my case would be approved easily, even without extra requests for evidence. Even though I wasn't sure, she seemed very sure. Rachel and her team were really good at handling my immigration case. Rachel is a great lawyer who is passionate, aggressive, and respectful. She never backs down from tough challenges. Other lawyers said I couldn't qualify for EB-1A, but Rachel looked at my case and said I would get approved. She helped me every step of the way. I highly recommend Casseus Law and Rachel to anyone applying for a green card through EB-1A or NIW. Thank you so much, Rachel!

He is very knowledgeable, he knows what he is doing and offer you 2 or 3 solutions depending on your case. He is very compassionate and has the best intention for the clients that he is working with. He is not one of those lawyers who is there just to make money off of you, he is there to help you at any cost to the best of his abilities. He is truly one of a kind. Very thankful i got to work with him and he was the one who handled my case.

I recently had the privilege of engaging with Attorney Jeff Feuer for a landlord-tenant dispute and am compelled to commend his exceptional service. Having spent numerous years as a CPA in the consulting industry, I am familiar with the consulting realm. Hence, when I say Jeff's professionalism and expertise truly impressed me, it's from a standpoint of understanding high standards of service. In August 2023, I found myself amidst a challenging situation. I had unknowingly entered a sub-lease agreement with an real estate sales agent lacking legal authority. Consequently, I faced eviction within a week. My attempts to secure a refund from this agent were met with resistance, followed by the sales agent's baseless and defamatory emails sent to both my educational institution and employer, just trying to prevent me from bringing him to the court. It was in these trying circumstances that I reached out to Attorney Jeff Feuer. Jeff's methodical approach stood out immediately. He attentively absorbed all facets of my case and equipped me with a wealth of legal knowledge that even my own research hadn't unveiled. With his guidance, I penned a more legally sound demand letter. Jeff's swift intervention with a Cease and Desist Letter played a pivotal role in ensuring that the sales agent refrained from involving any third parties henceforth. Throughout the process, Jeff’s responses were prompt, always within 24 hours, ensuring I felt supported at every juncture. His sage advice enabled me to resolve the matter without resorting to court proceedings. The leasing agent eventually acceded to my refund demands, and the matter was amicably settled. I'd like to add that Jeff's fees were incredibly reasonable, especially considering the caliber of service rendered. Attorney Jeff Feuer's assistance was invaluable. I wouldn't hesitate to seek his expertise in the future, should the need arise.

I've been a client of Dan's for over a year now. Dan dug so deep into my case, within the first month, he made discoveries that my previous lawyer (who I was with for over a year) didn't even look into. Dan and Billie leave no stone unturned. Billie is amazing at organizing information and breaking things down in a way that it doesn't feel so overwhelming. They took care of getting all of my records and thoroughly learning about my case. You don't feel like just a client at Malis Law. Dan is incredibly knowledgeable and gifted at breaking down legal jargon so it is easily understood. Dan and Billie have gone above and beyond, to make me feel at ease and confident that I am in great hands. I would (and do) recommend Malis Law to anyone dealing with a legal issue.

She is a very clear thinker and laid out options, risks and interconnectedness involved in various strategies extremely well. In the world of immigration law where absolutes are not always at hand and ambiguities abound, Ms. Edgecomb so very clearly explained the risks and benefits associated with various immigration pathways and answered my numerous questions very well. I learned quite a lot in our brief conversation. On top of her intelligence, geniality, and clear, methodical thinking, Ms. Edgecomb demonstrated exceptional generosity by spending so much time with me in an initial phone call.

Mr. Shaw represented me in a completely unfair murder case and overturned the conviction. He is totally different from most lawyers. He is one in a million! What sets him apart is his authenticity and thoughtfulness. He is as real as they come. What you see is what you get. He wears his being on his sleeve. He will never mislead you for his benefit. He has a great concern for his clients which is the catalyst for his strong work ethic. I would definitely recommend Mr. Shaw to anyone who is trying to win their case.

Many qualities set Mr. Shaw apart. He has incredible attention to detail, time management, great communication, he is humble, and easy to approach. Mr. Shaw likes to speak with his clients and family members himself. We do not need to call his office, we call his personal cellphone and email him, we like that we feel this connection with the attorney. He is so patient, we would ask the same question over and over again and he would not be bothered to repeat and help us understand the process. Mr. Shaw is not business as usual like most attorneys. He feels as part of our family. He doesn't push us away, he is not rushed to get off the phone when we are constantly calling him. He worries about our family's emotional well being. He never hides the negative or the positive, but he explains everything honestly so there is no confusion or misunderstanding. I would recommend Mr. Shaw 100%.

Anthony O'Connor was assigned to my case, and he kept me apprised of progress every step of the way. He offered what I would label "valet service" in terms of making every part of the process easy for me. He ensured that all medical bills were covered, followed up on each property damage portion of the claim (re: my bicycle equipment), and he successfully negotiated the best settlement available given the constraints of the insurance company. It has been an absolute pleasure dealing with Anthony, and I highly recommend him as a top-notch legal advocate.

Rick and his team were complete crackerjacks for what I know was a tedious and arduous case. After being dropped by my original attorney, Rick gladly took my case and assured me I was in good hands. He came through in a major way. They were responsive and ultimately effective against what was the most difficult insurance issue I have ever faced. Not only would I use them again but I will be referring anyone I know in need of services.

As landlords, we contracted Erica to review our existing lease and modify as she saw necessary. There were definitely a few sections that we were missing in our agreement. She was quick to pick up on that and amend appropriately for any future tenants. She was very prompt in reviewing the lease and return the modified version for our review. Her time and cost estimate were very reasonable and competitive. Working with Erica on this small project was an absolute pleasure!

David is an excellent lawyer, listens carefully to minute details. He helped me untangle my car crash situation with the insurance and updated me of the evolution of my case all the way to the end. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who wants a successful output of their car accidents and injuries cases...

If it were not for their help, I don't believe the outcome would be as good as it is. I am glad my case is settled, Altman & Altman are my go to team from now on.

I was in a really bad car accident back in 2010 and the insurance guys were giving me such a hard time. I wasn't getting anything resolved except denial of their responsibility. I found Altman & Altman and I met with Dave after meeting with two other law firms. I was very impressed with the professionalism and attention to detail I was given with Dave's firm. I made the right choice by hiring Dave to handle my case. He handled all disputes with the insurance company, sorting out all my bills, keeping me updated, and in the end delivered as promised. I would totally recommend this guy and his team. You're in good hands when you got these guys on your side. Like he says "they are the best lawyers in Boston"....Thanks Again man.

Anna is extremely well regarded in her specialty area of practice. She has the knowledge to quickly arrive at a proper strategy. I found her smart, efficient and client-focused. Since I'm a difficult client, to say the least, her reassuring style and level of service gave me such confidence that I myself was drawn into her empathetic style. Every week I recommend her to someone.

I ran into financial trouble a few years back and was so scared I was going to lose my house. I had no knowledge of the bankruptcy process, didn’t know what to expect, and was scared to lose everything. (not to mention the embarrassment). I hired Kate Nicholson and I’m so glad I did. First of all, she made the process so easy for me. She explained everything in terms that I could understand and calmed me down when I panicked a little. She is extremely knowledgeable about the process and I felt “safe” with her in charge. I really felt like Kate genuinely cared about my case and worked hard to get the best outcome for me. My outcome was so much better than I expected and I think Kate was almost (if not as) happy as I was.

Thank God i found Kate Nicholson when i was at a point in my life i never thought i'd be. I was behind in my mortgage payments and getting no help from my bank. I contacted Kate and she told me exactly what i needed to do, who to call and especially not to panic. She always got back to me if i had questions and never seemed aggravated that i had so many. Kate is professional, friendly, helpful and always had time for me. Thanks to her, we got it all sorted out and i'm still in my house. I couldn't have asked for a more helpful attorney.

I'm thankful that I decided to seek legal counsel regarding a personal injury case that involved my 4-year-old son - and especially thankfully that I retained Kate Nicholson. Kate was an invaluable representative. She asked all of the right questions, and took the time to fully understand all of the facts involving our traumatic incident. Kate was cordial, conscientious, insightful, and made me feel completely at ease. Kate's legal expertise was indispensable, and the end result was a settlement that we felt was fair and equitable. My family and I are very grateful.

I was referred to Ray Watson having left a Multinational Technical company and joined a technology start up company with 13 angel investors. Despite holding multiple degrees and an MBA, we had reluctance and difficulties being a startup without history. Roy was magnificent for being aware of the options, how to handle the difficult situation and for guiding us round the obstacles caused by inflexibility of the "standard" immigration bureaucracy. His creativity and willingness to create options is what stands him aside from other classical lawyers and always friendly, optimistic (and with reason) he is a true gem to anyone wanting Immigration. I would sign him in a heart beat should I ever need a visa or immigration documents again. Pity we lost Katelyn. Dr David G, BSc, MSc, PhD, MBA.

I called his office and he answered the call right away. He asked me the every single detail of my situation and provided me the best possible options to deal with. This gave a real boost and helped me understand the whole situation. His knowledge on immigration related issues is peaks. I recommend him 100%

Eric is an attorney with whom I am comfortable, who also has the knowledge and skills necessary to represent a client well and can differentiate himself from other lawyers because he is smart, organized, focused, and passionate about the work that he does. Eric approached my situation in a very thoughtful, organized, and facts based manner. His goal has been to help me solve a work problem in an efficient and professional manner. Eric was very clear on the strength of my case, and the cost to litigate along with the amount of time necessary. Eric has significant relevant experience in employment law and has won trials in front of a jury with Fortune 100 companies. He has also shared the percentage of cases that may settle before litigation, and gave me a thorough education to make the best decisions. My case has not completed, but I have full confidence in my decision to hire Eric.

Mr. Eric LeBlanc has a extensive knowledge of the Business guidelines and SOP’s, which enabled him to determine which employment violations occurred. My case fell under Employment and Labor practices, within Eric's law firm. Eric has strong Communication abilities that get the point across, by explaining legal terminology, legal processes, and court procedures. Eric was very responsive to my concerns; and did a great job keeping me informed, more importantly meeting all required legal deadlines. Eric ‘s quality of service, was impeccable in my opinion , he got a reasonable settlement in my case, more importantly he aided me in getting my life back on track; spiritually, financially, and mentally. Eric strategically cross-examined the defendant in preparation for court. Eric did a spectacular job pin pointing the discrepancies in the defendant’s deposition.

Rita expertly guided me through a sensitive and complex eviction case - which I won with her help. She was just the right balance of compassionate and assertive that the situation required. In addition, her experience navigating evictions that involve hoarding was extremely helpful. Rita spent time clearly answering all of questions. She was a strong advocate in front of the judge, and in communication with the other party’s council. Most impressively, she was able to keep the situation from becoming unnecessarily contentious. After the eviction, the tenant’s family even stepped in to pay for some of the damages to my unit, since they appreciated how we were willing to work with them through the eviction process. I believe Rita’s approach made this possible.

Rita helped me to resolve long standing tenant problem. I spoke with number of attorneys before her and was under impression that my situation is unsolvable. Rita took the issue, researched it, brought my tenants to court and managed to move them out and even get some compensation for me from them! To my amazement I didn't even need to go to court. She called me from court and let me know that she worked it out with tenants and presented their resolution to judge. In next 2 days long time non paying tenants moved out and I've got compensation check from them. That was miracle for me considering time and efforts I spent trying to resolve this situation myself.

Over the almost 4 year period since we hired Jonas Jacobson, he has very professional in his service and diligent in his work on my case. The case was due to Wells Fargo wrongly foreclosing on my home in Lexington, Mass and Jacobson succeeded in taking all the necessary steps to handle this less-than-ideal situation, worked out a very good settlement agreement with Wells Fargo (after having to do a long appeal) and just today handled the closing so that we have paid off this bank, severing our connection with them and salvaging our over $200,000 of equity that would have been lost otherwise. I am extremely grateful to have found Jonas Jacobson and I can personally say the he is the most honest, fair and dedicated lawyer I have ever worked with. I highly recommend him for similar cases or others that he handles.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

    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:

      Lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on experience and location.

      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.

      Legal fees can vary significantly by region or city.
    • Additional Expenses:

    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:
