Very poor experience. I was very inexperienced in picking out lawyers and was in a very abusive, tragic situation. She was so cold and shockingly unsupportive. I would never want any women or mother to feel as lousy and unimportant as she made me feel…sadly at the time my self-worth was very low.., she lowered it so much more….I still cringe over the experience 15 years later. if I had had access to more money at the time I would have cut my losses and found someone else. Not someone I could Ever recommend to anyone.

For my QDRO (qualified domestic retirement order) in Mass, she hired an UN-licensed, NON-qualified individual with an Environmental degree to write this critical document needed to divide our shared retirement assets. She didn't use her own paralegal? The guy botched it, lost 1.5% interest going forward into my future. She did not care. She paid this loser with my funds given her, $3,000 just $300, obviously cheaper than paying her own paralegal. I was cheated out of a fair sale price on my home of 16 years, $60K for a $500K house. She was lazy, didn't care about me, I was thrown out of my home with a restraining order, and not enough money for a hotel while she took her time taking in new clients, I guess. She did little for me and in the end tried to charge me another $2K+. I think she should be disbarred.

I hired this lawyer though the law offices. Not only did she show up at the wrong court building but she made it very clear on a regular basis she was very sympathetic for the woman I was seeking to divorce, as well as outright lie to me about my case. When I decided to seek other representation I told her as a courtesy and so I would not rack up further court fees. In response to me seeking other representation she fired me as a client with a very untrue and damaging letter to the court.

Andrea T. Cary is a smart, personable attorney who explained the process of divorce in simple terms. She listened carefully to my legal problems and honestly gave her opinion of how they would play out in court. She focused on quick resolution of differences in order to expedite the process. She represented me well in court and I was happy with the outcome. I would recommend her to my friends.
