I retained Attorney Shore for a divorce agreement modification. All I can say is WOW. Hands down the best Attorney I have ever hired in my entire life. She is tough, smart, and not afraid to tackle difficult and sensitive issues with a firm and caring hand. I have never seen someone stand up for my rights in court the way that Attorney Shore did. She worked with me out of state, spent long hours on my case, all while she was EIGHT MONTHS PREGNANT. I can not put into words what her representation has meant to me and my family. If you do not hire Attorney Shore, you are not hiring the best.

Not knowing where to even start, I was luckily referred to Shari. We had a great consultation and Shari was able to give me some great advice and information. I would have been lost and in the dark if it wasn't for her professional advice. Thank you Shari!

Stephen is by far the best real estate lawyer I have ever come across. I recently bought a house that took me more than 7 months to close. Just days before the scheduled initial closing, the bank took the property from the owner which meant the house was foreclose and was offered as a short sale. Stephen, stood by me knowing that I wanted the property. he encourage me, reached out to the other party's attorney to ensure the short sale process was sped up. At the end I got the key to the property with many thanks to the selfless help of Stephen. He is very indispensable and I was able to reach him at work, though his cell phone even at his home phone. This is my second dealing with Stephen, he help closed my first home which I sold in 2018 and now to my new home. I will highly recommend with Stephen.

Attorney Ross was recommended to us by an Attorney from Philladelphia, who said he was a great lawyer.
When we contacted him he met with us, listened to case, then he walked us through the whole process. He was very attentive to our case, and mostly he took the time to always listen to our case. What I like about him he will take your calls as a client - something rare with many attorneys, listen attentively not to dismiss or interupt you, answer your questions and concerns, and is very reassuring and compassionate in the process. He will fight for you and mostly he know all different solutions to different scenarios. This attorney got me from very worried, to a great solution and peaceful life. I am forever grateful to him. Will use him again for my Naturalization. Thank you attorney Ross!!

Attorney Ross always ensures that my immigration paper work is filed in a timely manner. He gives rapid and meaningful feedback to my questions and concerns. He goes beyond the call of duty. He would drive miles to meet with my sponsoring agency to obtain the proper filing paperwork signatures. His fees are affordable. I strongly recommend Attorney Ross to anyone who has immigration cases or in need to immigration advice. He is very approachable, knowledgeable, kind, respectful and will accurately complete your paperwork while meeting important deadlines. He is considered to be the best Immigration Attorney in Connecticut.

Attorney Barrett represented me in a Workers' Compensation case that was not an ordinary case but one that was unique and complex. He always took the time to answer all my question, listen to and address my concerns, and returned my calls in a timely manner. I found him to be caring, compassionate, and very understanding as to what I was going through due to my injury. Over the years I also used him for various other legal matters with the same results. Attorney Barrett is truly a lawyer and a man of intregrity.

Attorney Barrett helped with the closing on my home - it was a bit of a tricky case because the property is on a town line, and needed to be recorded in two towns - but Attorney Barrett and his team was right there to explain all my questions and to help ensure it was handled properly.

Just wonderful in every way. What a joy to deal with such an intelligent man. A true Catholic , he exemplifies the ideals that we all strive for.
Tooboot, he played professional baseball in the St. Louis Cardinals organization.
As a humble Christian, he never forgot his best friends; Tommy Bilodeau, shortstop , and “the red neck” King Triplett.and

I found Attorney Michael Todd Taylor through google and decided to hire him for my real estate transaction. I’m happy I did because Mr. Taylor was respectful, professional, and diligent. I’m out of state and Mr. Taylor made selling my property effortless on my part. He was responsive to emails/phone calls and timely that we closed by the due date. You will not be disappointed so don’t hesitate working with this great attorney.

Working with Attorney Taylor was easy! He was very knowledgeable in handling the sale of our existing home and the closing at our new home. Both sale and purchase occurred during the pandemic, which caused a lot of stress and anxiety. Attorney Taylor walked us through it with ease and we couldn’t be more grateful.

I am so glad that I chose Kristen Wolf as my attorney for my collaborative divorce. She guided me through the most difficult of times with a calm and measured wisdom that I so appreciated. She is a steadfast advocate, and I must say particularly oriented to a woman's experience when the marriage has been a controlling one! She is an excellent attorney.

During a really tough time Wolf & Shore, LLC helped me so much. Dealing with an estate is too overwhelming so having them take over was the best decision I ever made. I will use them again in the future if I ever need to! I hope that others will use them for any probate matters.

My husband and I utilized Mr Will Howery for the sale of our home. It was our first time selling and the process was all new to us, as we had bought from a bank, so many steps we hadn’t even done as buyers. Will was patient in explaining things clearly and in layman’s terms, often more than once when needed. We never got the feeling that we were bothering him if a question arose. Sometimes we didn’t know if it was “a lawyer or realtor question” but Will was happy to answer them all!
He was thorough in his attention to detail, even catching an error from when we bought the house that neither attorney then caught!
We will absolutely utilize his services again and recommend you do as well!

I hired Mr. Howery to put together a Will as my partner and I are not married. I wanted to ensure our assets would stay in the family should something happen to me. Mr. Howery clearly communicated what was required, provided insightful recommendations, made me feel confident in my decisions and comfortable during the entire process.

Mr. Howery assisted me with several legal matters and I was more than satisfied. He helped me write my Will and listened well, asked important clarifying questions and put together just what was needed to make me feel confident and at ease with a difficult task. He also put together a living will with me and I was able to understand the details of making my advance directives clear for myself, my family, medical personnel, and my conservator.
Will (and we easily got to a first name basis in our talks), was also there with me for the closing, when I was selling my home. He again had all the right documents and steps clearly managed and understood. He did catch a minor but major detail…the buyer’s lawyer had forgotten to sign his check! That was a vital, and easy, almost funny repair after all the pages of other legal bank documents!
I would recommend Attorney Howery unswervingly, without any reservation, and I can bet that once you start with him, you would go to no one else (unless, of course, he was recommending the referral to a colleague for an aspect of law that required specific experience and a skill set he was not best to offer).
You will find Will to be attentive to detail and very capable. Do give him a call when you need a friendly lawyer who does his research and inspires confidence.
