I cannot recommend Attorney Scott Wittlin of Sassoon Cymrot Law LLC highly enough. Scott took the time to thoroughly educate my aunt and me on the intricacies of trusts, ensuring we understood every detail. His approach was refreshingly straightforward, empathetic, and professional.
Having worked with many lawyers in the past, I often walked away feeling overcharged or underwhelmed. However, Scott is a true standout. He is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also deeply committed to serving the best interests of his clients. His transparency and dedication gave us peace of mind throughout the process.
If you’re looking for an attorney who combines expertise with genuine care, Scott Wittlin is the one to call.

I have been a long term client of Thornton Law Firm which started in the 1980's. When medical issues arose in my family we contacted Thornton and immediately after Andy Wainwright contacted us. Throughout the whole process he was very professional and explained in step by step manner the legal process we were in and our plan of action. Andy has been at our side for the last 7 years and throughout that time he has always been there when we needed him not only as our lawyer but as a friend. We are very grateful for the Thornton Law Firm and especially Andy for all their hard work and dedication they have put into my family. We give them a 5 star rating!

Hieu is an exceptional attorney: knowledgeable, professional, skilled, and a delight to work with. I actually enjoyed the experience of creating a prenuptial agreement because he was so competent and personable. He works efficiently with excellent attention to detail. He was also able to accommodateour last minute request for help, but if I had known how smooth a process this would be, I would have called him much sooner!

Hieu helped me navigate and execute a non-contested divorce with ease. I would have been lost trying to do this on my own. Hieu was very clear in describing the process, prompt in returning messages, and quick in getting filings submitted to the court. Fees were very reasonable as well. If you want an exceptional and efficient attorney, I highly recommend Hieu!

I recently had a consultation with Hieu Nguyen, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Hieu was not only highly professional but also approachable and easy to talk to. He made me feel comfortable and took the time to fully understand my situation. I’m currently navigating a challenging child custody case in Rhode Island, even though I now reside in Massachusetts. I truly wish I could hire him, but unfortunately, the case must remain in Rhode Island due to other legal factors. Even so, Hieu answered all my questions, listened carefully, and explained everything clearly. By the end of our conversation, I felt much more confident, with a clear plan in mind and far less overwhelmed. I would highly recommend Hieu Nguyen to anyone seeking honest and reliable legal advice.

Patrick Murphy is the best. I was summoned to a Magistrate Hearing. I had no idea what to expect or even how to prepare. Upon first contact with Patrick, he was extremely helpful. He explained the whole process to me, assisted with gathering the right documents and information, and answered all of my questions. On the day of the hearing, Patrick explained how the hearing would unfold and again answered all of my questions. Patrick is very knowledgeable, patient and helpful. I highly recommend him for anyone who is in need of help with a magistrate hearing.

Susan helped vindicate me against very serious allegations. She was very patient and efficient. She used her experience to devise a strategic and effective defense. She also has the ability to be stern and/or charismatic at the appropriate times, which I found to be a great attribute for a lawyer needing to get thier point crossed in a tense courtroom.

As a lawyer, with over 30 years of experience, I've come to know what a good lawyer looks like and I can tell you it includes the likes of Mary Schmidt and her team. Every once and awhile, a lawyer needs his or her own lawyer to represent them. When I needed a lawyer for a tricky probate litigation matter, there was no question but to seek advice and counsel from Mary Schmidt and her team. She is smart; capable and available, not to mention, extraordinarily hard working and good judgment and common sense. It was a bonus that both the Judge and clerks of the court knew and respected her. I recommend her without reservation.

I came across Donald’s profile on AVVO, while was looking for help with A1 divorce.
Before I talked to Donald, I did talk to other attorneys, but no-one listened to me, Donald took time to listen to me, to understand my situation and offer the best solutions.
He lead my case from the beginning to the end, making it easy for me, Donald also made sure I understand everything I sign and understand the language, he was very patient and always answered all my questions. All the paperwork that he has prepared for me was accepted by court right away, with zero issues. I felt confident, confident that Donald knows, what he is doing, confident that he puts my needs first, confident that he truly cares about the result of my case.
I’m very grateful I got across this profile, I’m grateful Donald worked with me. And I appreciate a lot all the work he has done to help me and make me feel confident.

I made a huge mistake not hiring attorney Donald Tye at the beginning when my divorce started. Foolishly I thought my now ex-husband would be a decent guy so I hired a local attorney, who seemed good enough to help write up a divorce agreement and that would be that. Well, that’s now how it played out. First of all, my ex became vicious, cruel and hateful in all matters every day, and the attorney I hired did NOTHING for almost 2 years! She didn’t return calls or emails, did not defend me, made numerous mistakes on filings and paperwork, and was absolutely RUDE and UNPROFESSIONAL not only to the other side, but to me also! NOTHING happened with the court and divorce action at all with her as my attorney. I was at my wits end and desperate for help so in October 2020 I called Donald Tye, who many had told me was a fantastic attorney. What an unbelievable difference in attorneys! Donald was available, kind, understanding, patient, and professional and was immediately ready to help me. He not only answered or returned my calls, he called me regarding all that he was doing for me, and even to check on me. He has wonderful support staff also. I felt safe and well represented by him every minute and he made it clear he was only interested in doing a good job for me, his client, and made sure everything was in my best interest. He is a true force to be dealt with by the other side too—always professional, but tough! With Donald Tye as my attorney, I had a divorce agreement negotiated and to by the other side—all the work of Donald Tye- and divorce granted by a judge at the hearing on December 15, 2020. October-December! 2 months and it was over because I hired Attorney Donald Tye! Words are not even adequate to express how thankful I am for his services. Not only is he a wonderful attorney, he is a very good man that I will forever be grateful to.

Attorney Paul Moraski is THE BEST criminal defense lawyer! When my son was falsely accused of a crime that he didnt commit and all the cards were stacked against him, we felt defeated. We called multiple lawyers and had multiple consultations and each lawyer agreed to take his case but they all wanted him to plead guilty. This would have meant my son pleading guilty for something he didn't do, having a permanent conviction record, possible jail time, license suspension, fines, and court fees. I understand that this was the fastest, easiest, and least costly way out but this would have had a huge negative effect on my sons life and his career. He would not being able to work in his profession and run his current business. He worked so hard to get where he is by going to college, his internships and now owning and running his own business. This entire ordeal was a devastating blow to my family and we were so blessed and grateful that we found Paul! ( He asked us to call him Paul during our first meeting) We knew from the first consultation that we needed to hire him! He was the first lawyer out of many that believed in my son and believed we had a strong case and didn't want him to just plead guilty. This entire thing was foreign territory for us. Paul was very knowledgeable through the entire process, he explained things to us in detail and kept my family in the loop the entire way during my sons case. We couldnt afford to retain a lawyer, but Paul worked with us on payment plans! Paul was very professional in and outside of court and is also a very sharp dresser! I would recommend Paul to anyone looking for a great defense lawyer!

Jordana is THE attorney that you want on your side. She will fight and advocate for you at every step of the way without nickel and diming you along the road like other lawyers. She is incredibly well versed with real estate law, professional while still being firm, and will NOT let anyone push her clients around. If you call her, she'll answer. If you text her, she will respond. I don't think 5 minutes ever went by without her responding to an email I sent - didn't matter if it was a weekday or a Sunday, she is THERE for you. Jordana was my attorney for a complex closing on a property I was purchasing, and now I plan to use her for all landlord and real estate purchases. It's unique to find someone who cares about your situation as much (or even more) than you do. That person is Jordana Greenman.
Huge bonus: her paralegal Diane is an angel and such an awesome resource to have along with Jordana!

Jordana was my attorney for a complex closing on a property I was purchasing, and now I plan to use her for all landlord and real estate purchases. It's unique to find someone who cares about your situation as much (or even more) than you do. That person is Jordana Greenman.
Huge bonus: her paralegal Diane is an angel and such an awesome resource to have along with Jordana!

I'm reading these reviews and wondering why our experiences were so vastly different from the experiences of many. Jordana was unresponsive, distracted during meetings and seemed to buddy up to the other party's attorney at our expense. The only upside of our experience was that she didn't charge us anything. Then again, she did nothing for us either, other than waste a lot of our time. Fortunately, we found another lawyer who was just perfect! But beware, it sounds like when Jordana is "on" she's great but when her heart isn't in it, she is awful.

This service is amazing! I didn't know a service like this was an option. The tech was easy to use and I was able to use it on my timeline. But even more important was the experience with my Notary, Crystal. She was super friendly and provided A+ service! I'm converted! No more driving to my bank just to notarize documents!

Jordana came highly recommended from a friend and she did not disappoint. My divorce was messy and complicated, as is not unusual, and there were many details to consider. To say that Jordana is meticulous would be an understatement. She quickly mastered the intricacies of my case. Jordana is not only an expert in family law in Massachusetts but also can draw on her extensive experience with how cases play out in practice. Jordana was also extremely adept at strategizing our approach and helping me understand which positions would be to my advantage and which would not. I don't recommend going through a divorce, but if that's what life brings, you can't do better than having Jordana at your side.

Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?
Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:
- Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
- Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.

- Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.

Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.

- Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
- Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
- Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?
Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
- Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
- Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.
The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
Who will be handling my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.
How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
- Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
- Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
- Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:
- Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
- List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
- Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
- Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.
Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
