Incredibly grateful for your service

We are incredibly grateful to our attorney, Mr. Charles Maguire and his assistant , Ms. Corinna for their unwavering support throughout our home-buying journey in Massachusetts. What should have been a straightforward process turned into a 5-month ordeal filled with just about every obstacle imaginab...le—but thanks to their dedication, persistence, and expertise, we were still able to close on our home. They were always responsive, patient, and thorough, explaining every step and making sure we were protected and informed along the way. We truly felt that they had our best interests at heart from beginning to end. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to guide us through such a stressful and emotional process. Thank you both for everything—your help made all the difference.

A great man and lawyer

When my son found himself in trouble with an OUI we were scared and didn't know where to turn. On the recommendation of my mother who had know Charlie for years prior we reached out to him on a Sunday night by phone and email. He responded within an hour and ever since then he has been available for... any questions we might have or just for a bit of reassurance. He worked hard and I'm pleased to say he was able to get any charges against my son dismissed. I truly think Charlie is angel and works hard for anyone who needs his services. If anyone were to ask me for a lawyer recommendation he would be the one!! As a mom I can't thank him enough for all he did for my son and for me.

Great service

He was representing my wife and I on a closing of our mortgage. Not only he answered every question we had, but he also took his time to walk us trough all the paperwork and answered every single question we had. In addition, I later contacted him about a delay on automatic payments that were sche...duled and he also helped me right away with the issue. I have not seen such service from any law office, They are outstanding.

DUI

I found myself in an unfortunate situation one weekend. I made a call to a prominent acquaintance in the law field, without hesitation he told me to call Attorney Charles M. Maguire, he is just the man for the job. Boy was he right. I spoke with Charlie twice on a Sunday, it was also Fathers Day. He ...made time for me, calmed me and explained what I could expect in court the next morning. Immediately after my court appearance Charlie met with me in his downtown Northampton office. In the weeks to come Charlie always had to for my questions and concerns and kept me updated on what he was doing concerning my case. I was set on accepting my fate and putting the situation behind me. Charlie convinced me I had a good chance of getting the charges against me suppressed. Charlie hit the ground running. He obtained police reports, videos, and even went the extra mile to go to the location of the "incident" and get the lay of the land and take photos. Together we went over the reports, videos and evidence. Charlie was very impressive when I got my day in court, he really knows his way around a court room. in record time he had the charges against me suppressed. If plan A had failed Charlie already had plans B and C figured out as the next steps to take. A relationship with Attorney Charles M. Maguire is more then lawyer and client, he also becomes a friend. I cant thank him enough.
