Child Custody Champion

At first I was a little reserved, but the more I spoke with Mr. Pilon, the more he made me feel comfortable, both with his knowledge, and down to earth approach. As a father in MA fighting for child custody, I couldn't have picked a better person to represent me, and my child. I now have full custod...y of my child, and will be forever grateful for his help in making my dream a reality.

Client

I was a mess when going to my consultation with attorney Pilon, I called him when my children were ripped away from me for something I had no control over by the department of Social services. The day I called ,He set up a meeting for that day. Having court the following day, he moved his schedule ar...ound to travel to the Berkshire’s to take my case. He talked me down and put my mind at ease, explained my situation In it’s entirety, assured me we were going to get my children back. He worked effortlessly day and night ( days before Christmas, we actually had a court date on Christmas Eve during a huge snow storm and he made sure he was present) he called the plaintiff’s out on the bs they were trying to pull, the lies they told he had me get immediate proof Of and used his knowledge as a previous social worker to get the judge to see what they were doing was wrong and extremely unprofessional. I didn’t have the money as I lost my job fighting for my children, he still showed up every time. This man actually cares about his clients. You feel comfort in talking to him as he lays it out straight. I got my children back within the month thanks to him, their father was able to come home and we are now healing from the hell we were in. Thank you attorney Pilon, May nothing but blessings and good luck come your -Samantha and James.

Highly recommend!

Lawrence Pilon is a remarkable lawyer. One who is extremely knowledgeable as well as professional. He took the time to make sure all my options were understood. He returned my calls in a timely fashion and answered all my questions. He helped me win not one but two auto accident cases. Both of which ...I was hit because I was idling my car waiting to turn. He put in the time and dedication to make sure I got the best possible outcome of each case. When my chiropractor wasn't helping me he recommended an amazing one. My daughter suffers from migraines. She has a 504 Plan. She knows her triggers. Several times I spoke to the principal about moving her out of a class that was connected to the teachers lounge. He refused to believe that the smells from the lounge were triggering her migraines. My daughter was suffering daily and I had to stand up for her. I called attorney Lawrence Pilon. I explained how my daughter has a disability and a 504 Plan to protect her. But it was being ignored by the school principal. I made another meeting with the principal. This time with attorney Pilon by my side. He was very sympathetic and diligent to my daughter's needs. That day she was moved out of that class. I recommend Attorney Pilon to everyone. He is hardworking and dedicated to his clients. He will work with you to get the best possible outcome in your case. All while showing compassion, understanding and commitment to your needs.
