Family Court

I highly recommend Deirdre. I hired her to represent me in Family Court and she went above and beyond my expectations. I felt completely comfortable throughout the whole process. She made sure that I understood everything before , during and after court. Extremely knowledgeable and professional.

Outstanding effort on a difficult no-fault

The process took more than a year to obtain a court hearing partly due to Covid, but mostly due to the stubbornness of the wife. It took eleven months to get her to sign a settlement agreement with a lot of ugliness along the way. Deirdre was patient and persistent and had to use her considerable neg...otiating experience to finely convince the party to not contest. Over the entire period she helped me manage the stress by frequent progress updates, comforting advice and taking control of the negotiations. Bottom line, she got the desired results and provided peace of mind.

Can't Thank Deirdre enough

Deirdre is just an amazing lawyer, who was compassionate and thorough with the details in my divorce. There were many difficult angles that she was able to navigate and help me with. I am in a better place because of her dedication and I just can't thank her enough for that. I highly recommend Deirdr...e if services are needed in Family Court.

Truly Exceptional Attorney

We consulted with Deirdre on a family court matter. She was able to process all of the moving pieces quickly and offer great advice. She's intelligent, down-to-earth, and clearly focused on results, not revenue. Thank you, Deirdre!

A Passionate Advocate

I've been a client of Deirdre for many years, as she initially helped me navigate a very difficult divorce. Through the years, post-divorce, she has helped with additional proceedings as life circumstances changed. She didn't always tell me what I wanted to hear, but told me what I needed to hear. ...She's empathetic to the situation and has been a passionate advocate on my behalf in Worcester Family Court. She's helped me create an outcome that I can live with financially, as well as emotionally. I've come to rely on her opinion and expertise and would recommend her to anyone else who's unfortunate enough to find themselves going through a divorce.
