Stereotypical Attorney

I won't give this clown any stars. This is a smooth talking,over priced clown,that talks out his back side. This system does not care about your children,or family. It's a race to see who can bleed you dry first. Save your money, and represent yourself. Thomas will tell you he knows the guideline...s, but in the end, it proves he doesn't. He doesn't do any research, and shows up to court unprepared. He even showed to a trial with his girlfriend, and only cared about spending the day in the city. The Massachusetts system is broken, and these people will bleed you dry. Stay away from this guy. Tommy was referred to me. Even after reading one star reviews. I'm warming you all. It's true, don't hire this man. He's not worth any dollar amount.

Replied last December 21, 2022

Divorce is an emotional undertaking and while most people are equipped with the maturity and the emotional intelligence to control their anger, listen to the advice being offered, and act rationally and respectfully; not everyone is. Steven was such a client who allowed his anger to get in the way. I was his third attorney, and I knew he would be difficult to please. He would bad mouth his two prior attorneys and often took no ownership for his actions. Against my advice, he chose to roll the dice and go to trial, which allowed a judge to determine his fate instead of accepting what would have been a far better outcome. During trial he was admonished 4 times by the judge who threaten to hold him in contempt for his disrespectful behavior during testimony. At one point, 5 court officers descended upon the courtroom to control his overt displays of anger. So, when reading a review, always be mindful of the source. This review does not accurately reflect the expertise and attentive service I strive to provide each client.

Expert Attorney!

Attorney Jaffarian is an incredibly competent, expert attorney who served as a legal advocate for my children and me during a very taxing divorce. He presented with consistent support, sound guidance, advocacy, and professionalism that was unmatched by apposing counsel. His effective, efficient legal... approach ensured that my rights to my children and my assets were protected. I would highly recommend Attorney Jaffarian to all, including my closest friends and family.

Commander of the Court

Thomas Jaffarian, I call him the Commander of the Court because of what I didn't realize when I started my divorce. Tom's command of the law and his experience will allow you to take control of the process, rather than just becoming another victim of divorce. Let me summarize what he managed to do... for me: - maintain ownership of my properties - equal parenting time - children locked into my towns school district - Zero alimony payments - Reasonable buyout to my Ex - I did not spend hours waiting on some bench at the courthouse - I did not wait weeks or months for hearings - Most importantly his ability to work with the opposing council to achieve a very fair deal. I highly recommend hiring Tom, you will not be disappointed.

Freedom, at last

I am extremely pleased with the outcome of the services that Attorney Jaffarian provided to me. Attorney Jaffarian most recently drove the successful termination of my alimony after over 10 years of painful payments. His knowledge and guidance through the new laws coupled with his aggressive presenta...tion to the court set me free. He was very, informative and well prepared throughout this life-changing event. He continually reached out to me to follow up as we moved through the process. He was professional at all times, fair with his billing and really strives for the best outcome of his clients. After all is said and done my payback is about 7 months. I cannot sing enough praises about Attorney Jaffarian and I strongly recommend him.

Smooth sailing divorce

I definitely would not wish the need for a lawyer on anyone, however, being that i had no alternative, I was extremely pleased to have the services of Attorney Jaffarian available to me. Attorney Jaffarian has recently helped me through the often difficult divorce proceedings that most clients exper...ience. He was quite informative and well prepared. He continually reached out to me to follow up as we moved through the process of creating a separation agreement, prepared for, filed and executed my divorce and the ultimate preparation and submission of 2 separate QDROs. I would strongly recommend the services of Attorney Jaffarian, he is quite knowledgable, professional and respectful and definitely looks out for the best interest of his clients.
