Rui represented me on a couple of difficult occasions (divorce and DUI) and each time did a great job resulting in the best possible outcome. He is knowledgeable, diligent, experienced, and really cares about the client and their best interest. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

I’ve used Rui and his firm on multiple occasions. I couldn’t be happier with serve’s, accessibility and follow up during those times .

Rui has been an exceptional attorney since I first hired him two and a half years ago. When I first consulted him about my separation and divorce I was not anticipating the high level of conflict my divorce would have. Rui was there for me every step of the way offering his extensive legal expertise, support, compassion, and the hard truths of the family court system as necessary. He was able to get my children and I out of an abusive situation and obtain an advantageous divorce agreement both financially and in regard to custody arrangements. When my ex has attempted to drag me back into family court Rui and his team have been there to assist me quickly and with excellent results. Rui is mindful of his clients’ time and money, and is a caring and honest person. I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone in need of a family court attorney.

Rui is a wonderful attorney, I have worked with many in various personal and business endeavors and he is one of the best.

Rui is not only more than capable, he is truly a genuine person. What you see is what you get. I had hired another attorney prior to Rui and for 8 months got nowhere. Rui was recommended to me and knowing he had to start from scratch, he was confident he would get it done. He immediately pulled control away from my ex husband and the case was finished in less than 5 months. For Boston that is remarkable. I can't say enough good things about Rui and his firm. When he said not to worry he had it, he meant it.

After losing 2 lawyers, I happened to be going down a list and ran into Atty Alves. He was very compassionate, open and willing to advise. I had given up on lawyers and was representing myself in my divorce for 2 years and was now at the trial phase. Atty Alves took on my mess, prepared relentlessly, asked all the right questions, and was compassionate, which was the biggest part. After being attacked repeatedly by my spouse’s attorney, Rui and I worked together and I never felt alone. The best justice was when my spouse had to sit in court and listen to what he’d done in Atty Alves words. I couldn’t have expressed it better and felt in that moment that justice was served. Atty Alves was ready for our trial and had the heavy hitters ready to take the witness stand. This atty is very highly recommended by me….in my opinion there is none better!! He saved me! He serves as an example of what a little listening and understanding can do. All attorneys should heed to this lesson in my opinion. Wish I’d found him a long time ago.

Worth every penny! Do you want to win at any cost? Want to crush the lives of others? Ruin them financially? Want to put your wife and children out with nothing…this is your guy. Seize everything and run? He can help! He knows just what to do to get away with it. He will take the case right up to trail and then withdraw….unbelievably talented at manipulation. He can come up with lots of stall tactics to drag your case out so you can out spend your opponent causing them to be broke and unable to continue litigation. If he used his talent for good the world would be a better place! Best lawyer ever….

Mr. Alves was a great advocate who helped me deal with an extremely difficult party. He understands the law and provided strong and decisive counsel.

I had a very complicated domestic case that lasted over a year. Rui was very knowledgable and strategic in all aspects of the case. The custody portion was very emotional, and Rui was able to find amicable solutions in which the children were put above the fray. He was there with wise counsel and referrals helping to set up outside support systems. The economic portion of the case was very complicated. Rui was able to find solutions and strategies that enabled me to avoid a trial. The agreement was fair and Rui’s stratagies saved me a lot of money in the long term. His experience with domestic cases and calm demeanor are an asset during a highly emotional time. I highly recommend Rui and think of him as one of the best.

I hired Rui to assist me in a defendant position. He always kept the line of communication open and followed through with what he said he was going to do. More importantly he cares and is understanding. If you need someone to support you in a time of need Rui is that person.

In the summer of 2017 I needed a lawyer to assist me with my divorce. Over the next 6-9 months Rui was fantastic to me in that he was helpful, understanding, kind, honest and supportive towards me. It was a difficult time for me and he showed compassion towards me yet created a backbone of strength that I did not feel i possessed at the time. He had my best interest at heart. Rui is incredibly intelligent and a good man.

I hired Rui Alves when my husband suddenly filed for divorce. The case involved two states and crossed international borders. I was afraid of the outcome considering my husband’s dishonest and dubious behavior. Rui guided me step by step and helped me calmly and successfully move through the entire process until the whole case was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Rui never left one stone unturned or any angle unexplored. He was always one step ahead of the game. Rui always made himself available to discuss any issue or fear I was having and reassured me that he was fighting for me. In the courtroom, Rui always represented himself with intelligence and class. I feel very thankful to have had him in my corner. I am now using Rui as my divorce attorney as I have filed against my husband. I would not be in this position if it wasn’t for Rui Alves and for this I am eternally grateful.
