James Cushing was the first lawyer that I saw for my divorce and after discussing my situation I was told that I was in a strong position and to sue for custody, support and divorce at the same time. After paying my retainer of $1,800.00 on Sept 18th. This office did not submit my paperwork to the courts until 2 months later Nov. Everytime I called to check on the status, I was billed. It took two months for them to check on the status! He reviewed none of the paperwork prior to the custody hearing for support and was completely unprepared in that he had to be told by the opposing lawyer what form to file! Do not hire this lawyer or this firm. Their only goal is to charge fees for calls and court appearances, not for professional advice, expert negotiation or proper paper work submission. You would be better served looking up the paperwork and old case law and doing it yourself.

This attorney was wonderful. Straight forward. Cost efficient and kept me informed. I had a landlord tenant matter that required aggressive action on my part. Mr. Cushing knew exactly what to do. I also referred my son to him for his divorce. He is an excellent Family Law lawyer as well.

I was referred to James by my company's legal insurance plan (ARAG) for a case regarding the division of property, which in my case was a family pet. It was quite emotional for me, and the first legal issue I really had to deal with. I was quite worried about the process at first, but James explained the steps of the legal proceeded, responded to legal requirements quickly and was detail oriented. He provided ample time for me to gather documents needed so discovery was not rushed and stressful. James remained dedicated to maintaining my position, and in the end the opposing party decided to settle because of his determination and preparation.

Mr. Cushing was in with a client so I spoke to Faye Riva Cohen, Esquire. I was calling on behalf of my sister that was in need of immediate answers regarding an emergency situation with her landlord that lives on the property. Ms. Cohen took my call and answered my questions in which she gave me piece of mind on behalf of my sister. I believe Ms. Cohen is the answer to my sisters landlord issues and I have highly recommended my sister to retain Ms. Cohen. Thank you so much for taking my call right away. I am a legal assistant and know it is not always easy to get an attorney to answer a call when you are in need of immediate answers. I cannot thank Ms. Cohen enough!!!!
