My go-to for family and estate law needs

I have worked with Attorney Nicole Reeves Lavallee and more recently with Attorney Demian Tebaldi and had an excellent experience each time I have engaged the firm. Attorney Lavallee handled my divorce in an efficient and cost-effective manner, and Attorney Tebaldi prepared a complete estate plan fo...r me and my current spouse. I highly recommend the services of this firm.

Attorney Demian Tebaldi

I worked with Attorney Demian Tebaldi on my real estate-related issues and he was absolutely incredible. It was an urgent and time-sensitive request and he understood the unique nature of the situation and resolved it in less than 15 minutes. He went above and beyond and was able to resolve the issue... in 4 days. I can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you so much!

Working with the Reeves Lavallee Lawfirm

The one statement that made me choose the Reeves Lavallee lawfirm was a phrase in their website where they defend men's rights. Of course, they represent both genders, but it is my opinion that men carry a bigger weight since we are the ones who do not always inititate the divorce. So, this phrase ...meant a lot to me because it was necessary for this lawfirm to show that we both will be equally represented regardless of who started the divorce. Every divorce is complex and we all have huge stories to convey about what and why the marriage took a wrong turn, and it was often my concern that there was too much to remember. If they can't remember the intricacies of the marriage, then this is a risk. My attorney, Mr. Demian Tebaldi and our paralegal Mr. Shawn Ilinitch, were supportive every step of the way. They sorted out the complex story, separated what is needed from what isn't, and in the end delivered an outcome I was happy with. A divorce can be quite emotional, but Mr. Tebaldi exercised the proper level of control to remind me that what is important, and most especially the goal, has not been forgotten or dismissed. This reinforced my beliefs in this lawfirm's capabilities and I would recommend them if anyone were to ask.

Nicole Lavalley is a great lawyer!

Nicole has been my lawyer for 7 plus years now, from a divorce to a real estate transaction. I trust her, feel confident in her knowledge as a lawyer. She's personable, cares to listen, and explains the process in depth. She truly is the best of the best lawyer. I trust her and will continue to trust... her with all my needs. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an experienced, great lawyer.

Awesome, knowledgeable and respected Attorney

Nicole has handled many different issues for us. The last was a real estate transaction where the buyers attorney was dragging their feet. She pushed them along (as well as us!) for a speedy conclusion. She also did some legwork that should have been done by a different attorney, at no extra cost. Sh...e is very thorough and her advice should be heeded. She handled a family court issue for a relative that I referred to her. It was very emotional for my relative and she was proactive and was able to provide the right guidance and attended the court hearing with a wonderfully positive outcome. Through the whole ordeal, she never once even hinted to me that she was even representing my relative. All her cases are confidential as they should be and she is very discreet. Nicole is the one lawyer I trust and seek her out for advice on any legal issues.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
