Experienced, civic minded, independent counsellor

Attorney Hardee worked with our nonprofit board of directors over a period of several months to review, revise and update its By-Laws and Articles. She is a keen listener and provided great legal advice, while respecting the board's decisions about governance structures.

Posted by Don | December 10, 2014 | Debt & Lending Agreements

One of the most competent attorney's I've had the privilege of working with. Highly recommended.

Attorney Hardee represented me in a complex refinance of a couple of mortgages, student loans, and unsecured debt. Her attention to detail, one on one customer service, and detailed explanations of complex documents and lending requirements were very much appreciated. Her practice is conveniently l...ocated in downtown Springfield.

You can't do better

Felicity Hardee is exceptionally dedicated, has great attention to detail, and never drops the ball. I have worked with her on several complex real estate transactions, often involving multiple attorneys, and she is always the attorney who is best prepared, most timely, and most responsive.

Felicity Hardee

Felicity Hardee has represented our non-profit housing development organization on a number of real estate development projects involving multiple public financing sources in Massachusetts. Attorney Hardee has been very effective in reviewing and drafting legal documents that must conform to the req...uirements of the Massachusetts Department of Housing and Community Development, the Massachusetts Housing Partnership, and other public and quasi-public entities as well as private lending institutions. She has also provided us with useful guidance on presenting complex issues to municipal officials and boards. Attorney Hardee recently worked with us to develop an agreement with the MassDEP involving the use of a deed restriction regarding occupancy limitations on a project served by a private well. She has also worked with us on the development of projects using Massachusetts Chapter 40B comprehensive permits, and a publicly financed project involving the use of a ground lease. We have found Attorney Hardee's work to be timely, thorough and effective.

Unknown lawyer | Nov 17

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Felicity has a wealth of experience in several different areas of the law. She practiced for many years at Springfield's largest firm, initially working as a litigator (actually trying cases, unlike some who call themselves litigators). She then concentrated for several years in environmental law before focusing more directly on real estate law. Given her wide and varied background, she can effectively and efficiently handle a great variety of legal matters. And she's a terrific person to boot!"
