Excellent practice!

I cannot begin to express my gratitude for Attorney MacAdie and her legal team that was by my side every minute of an extremely emotionally draining custody process. The office always returned my calls/emails within the same day whenever I had questions. I could not have achieved the outcome of the... case had it not been for them. I highly recommend Attorney MacAdie and her team!

Divorce case

I hired Jessica to assist me with a high-conflict divorce case. Unfortunately, her assistant, who repeatedly asked the same questions seemingly to inflate the bills, was primarily responsible for my case. During the first hearing, Jessica appeared unprepared and unfamiliar with my case details. She... struggled to counter my ex-husband's attorney's claims with my evidence, seemingly unaware of them. She frequently referred to the opposing attorney as "sister," which was unprofessional. None of my evidence was effectively used in my favor, and she even forgot my name. I was rushed into signing a document without reading it, with Jessica insisting we were short on time and I should trust her. This was a costly mistake. I spent over $50,000 for her to advocate for the other party, not for me. I would not recommend her services.

Best of the best

Attorney MacAdie was recommended to me by a forensic accountant in the area. I was at a point where I had retained two attorneys prior to being referred to attorney MacAdie, and almost quit/dropped my case out of frustration from working with attorneys who don't care and were not knowledgeable. I kne...w from the first consultation I had with Attorney MacAdie that she was unlike anyone I had worked with and retained her immediately. She listened to everything I said and I didn't necessarily have the data to back it all up, but she BELIEVED me and put a strategy in place to expose the truth and win my case. My case took nearly 3 years and was very complicated, but attorney MacAdie could always pivot and navigate expertly. My ex hired an opposing attorney out of pure threatening tactics, but attorney MacAdie never wavered. She is the best of the best. I cannot thank her or recommend her enough. My case ended with a positive outcome - and this was after two prior attorneys told me I should walk away. She is phenomenal and has the expertise, skills, and tactics to achieve positive outcomes for her clients. Attorney Foley provided a couple of suggestions for my case as well. Everyone in this office is lovely to work with, including their paralegal, Stephanie.

I highly recommend Foley and MacAdie

I first hired Jessica to represent me in my divorce. Jessica's calm and confident demeanor put me at ease during a highly stressful and emotional time in my life. I knew she genuinely cared for me and my children's best interests. While divorce is never happy, I was satisfied with the positive outcom...e for myself and my children. A few years later, I did not hesitate when I again needed legal assistance in a family matter. Jessica was my first call. She always made me feel like I was her most important client. My confidence in her was well placed as she was able to bring my case to a positive resolution once again. Foley and MacAdie are an excellent law firm. They are highly professional while being kind and empathetic to their clients. Financially they are transparent about the cost to their client. The services they provide are well worth what they charge. I would hire them again and highly recommend them to anyone needing family legal services.
