I hired Attorney Silva to take care of my child support case, and I am out of state.
She always responded to me in a timely manner. She was always very patient answering my questions. I worried that the case could drag and add extra stress to me and my daughter, and cost me additional legal fees. But she was able to close my case at the very first court hearing with satisfactory outcome. With gratefulness, I write this review and recommendation. I am very lucky to have found her to represent me.

Attorney Silva drafted a pre-nuptial agreement for me. Her explanations of Massachusetts law were clear and informative. She negotiated a strong agreement for me with opposing counsel. I was also impressed by her timely communication. She always answered emails thoroughly and quickly. She was on-time and prepared for all phone and in-person appointments. I highly recommend!

The team at Mavrides Law were fantastic with my recent divorce. Jennifer Silva made sure that our children (one special needs and one in college) and my interests were protected and ultimately got us an very favorable agreement when I didn't think it would be possible given how my ex was dragging the whole process out. Alana was also a crucial part of the team and was so patient with answering my questions or referring to Jennifer if she needed to be the one who answered it. On the court day that was supposed to be for temporary Child Support, Christina and Jennifer worked with opposing council to hammer out the settlement and instead of a temporary motion we had our divorce settled as we walked out of the courthouse to be final in 90 days. They were nothing short of amazing! They never inflated their bill and I can honestly say they fully earned every charge they billed me for. You get what you pay for and this was the best possible investment I could have made for our children's and my future. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who is divorcing whether simple or complex they will work diligently for you and your family.

Jennifer Silva is a highly professional attorney in family law. Jennifer was my divorce attorney for the final portion of my divorce process and I highly recommend her. Jennifer and Mavrides Law are a highly skilled and professional team. Jennifer was persistent and confident representing me at my court hearings and also helped my spouse and I come to a resolution for the intense child custody issues that he and I could not agree with. If it wasn’t for Jennifer we would still be appearing in court hearings and end up in trial.
Jennifer genuinely cared about me and my case and what was important to me. She is also very ethical and looked after my needs.
Jennifer made sure everything was covered in my final separation agreement for me and my child. She was extremely detailed oriented in my agreement that addressed complex areas.
I am so happy and pleased with the outcome of my divorce and final separation agreement due to Jennifer’s skills. I am very thankful Jennifer was my attorney and can’t thank her enough. Thank you Jennifer for working so hard on my case!

I paid $650 for a two hour consultation with Jennifer Silva of Malvrides Law. It ended after 90 minutes and I was invited by Jennifer to contact her if I had any questions.
Three days later, I did have one question. First, I emailed it and not receiving a reply, I called Jennifer and left a message with the woman who answered her phone.
Neither my email nor my call were answered.
I made the mistake of thinking that a consultation was merely the first step in progressing my case. I was wrong. I had no right to expect that Jennifer would respond to my communications nor that she would progress my case beyond that consultation. I made a mistake.

Jennifer and Mavrides law team are the most professional, responsive, and by far the best attorney for family law in MA! I would never higher anyone else again other then Jennifer and or the Mavrides firm for any future problems that may arise.

I highly recommend Jennifer Silva as a divorce attorney, without reservation. Jennifer worked arduously on my divorce settlement agreement between my husband and myself. Together we drafted an agreement that worked for me personally, in which she protected my financial interests and achieved the goals I wanted to achieve. Jen protected my state pension from my husband’s access, and arranged for my daughter’s college education, which were the two most important issues to me. She listened extremely well throughout the process and constantly brought the agreement back to my original goals. This required much tweaking, and Jen was constantly available to make any changes immediately. She advised me of possible scenarios and kept on the path to a solid divorce settlement. Again, I would highly recommend Jen Silva. She is an extremely knowledgeable divorce attorney who is extremely approachable and accessible.

Jennifer is very patient, responsive and was proactive in my child custody case. Jennifer helped me through the most tragic time of my life, always made me feel assured and confident that I would get my joint custody back. Having hired 3 different probate attorney's before with no luck and wasting money made me skeptical as to which attorney to hire next. Meeting Jennifer I instantly felt secure, confident, and at ease that she was the right attorney for my case. She worked diligently and was compassionate about my case. She is very professional and by far the best attorney I have worked with. Jennifer helped me get my life back, the liberty to be a parent to my child. Jennifer and Mavrides law maybe expensive, but was well worth every penny spent!

After having failed to establish equal custody with my x-wife through mediation and meeting with two other lawyers that assumed the court would not order equal custody of my four year old son to me with no rationale to why? Luckily I was fortunate enough to come across MAVRIDES Law on AAVO.
I first made contact with MAVRIDES via email and explained my goal of securing equal custody of my son. Within 24 hours Marcia Mavrides responded and gave me the confidence to continue my pursuit which eventually lead to me meeting Marcia and Jennifer Silva.
We discussed my case and although neither Marcia nor Jennifer could confirm the outcome at the time I felt comfortable and confident that I had finally identified a legal team that was compassionate with my goal of securing equal access to my son but also confident that Marcia, Jennifer and the team were competent in representing me.
Marcia and her team established that Jennifer Silva would represent me and manage communication with my x-wifes lawyer and represent me in court. From our first meeting through the final divorce, Jennifer established our goals and set expectations, clearly advised me on the law, kept communications lines open and was very responsive to questions or concerns I had going through the process. In court and with opposing counsel, Jennifer was professional, direct and relentless in her pursuit to not only help me secure equal custody of my son but also negotiated a settlement that helped us avoid trail and further unnecessary time in court and costs.
Thank you Marcia, Jennifer and team for helping me accomplish my mission when others in your profession did not believe the court would allow a father equal custody of his child.

During this very difficult time in my life, I knew my divorce was being handled properly and I was in good hands. It was one less thing for me to worry about. I knew I was in Jennifer's best interest and trusted her during the process. She was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend Jennifer as a lawyer.
