Professional and Personable

my experience working with Attorney Charles Maguire on the purchase of my house this year has been extremely pleasant unlike others in the past. He is very helpful and easy to work with in many ways, generous with his advice and always has his client's best interest in mind. He and his staff have mad...e this transaction an easy and smooth process for all parties involved. Also as a first time landlord who is trying to navigate through the complexity of the rental laws in Massachusetts, Mr Maguire even went out of his way to help me to draft a lease agreement for my investment property. I can say without any reservation that what really set him apart from other lawyers that I worked with before is that he truly cares about what he does and genuinely wants to help his clients. I feel more like working with a friend than just an attorney who is also knowledgeable and skillful at getting the job done for me.

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.
