Wonderful Attorney!

My husband and I hired Attorney Grossberg a little over two years ago. This review is very delayed. She was wonderful, easy to work with, explained everything and answered all our questions. I can't thank her enough for what she has done for us. Now it's almost 2 yrs since our discharge and she t...ruly provided us with a fresh start! We appreciate all her efforts and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a bankruptcy attorney.

The Best Attorney in Massachusetts!

I am a USMC Veteran and was very skeptical of being able to find an Attorney who would be trustworthy, hard-working, and truly dedicated to helping with my case. From the first meeting Susan was extraordinarily helpful, knowledgeable, informative, and her outstanding work-ethic made the heinous proc...ess of filing much less stressful. She was (and still is) consistent, communicative, supportive, and most importantly, her efforts have directly enabled my life to move a giant step forward. I 100% recommend Susan Grossberg!

Outstanding Attorney!!!!!!!!!!

Susan absolutely exceeded my expectations as my attorney. During such a difficult time she provided so much support and information, met with me based on my schedule and was always available when I contacted her wether via email or phone. I was able to fully and quickly understand the way she explain...ed all legal documents and procedures. Susan and I had to meet a few extra times before filing my case to ensure all documents were accurate and acceptable and each time she was glad to do so. I am so happy and so very grateful to have found Susan and have her represent me. Susan is a well informed, intelligent and well educated attorney. She was so personable and friendly I felt comfortable and confident throughout my case. I felt a great deal of trust having her represent me. I would recomend Susan to anyone looking for a bankruptcy attoney.

Top Notch Professional

I chose Susan's office based on positive reviews on the internet as well as her time in business. I'm very glad I did. She was professional yet personable, prompt to answer my questions, and very good about explaining how the process works. I would highly recommend her services.

Very pleasant experience

I had herd that BK's can be awful. I had no issues what so ever and I credit this towards my attorney . Susan Grossberg took care of everything and was extremely pleasent in doing so. I never felt like she was judging me and she was on top of things from the start.

Landlord or tenant lawyer | Oct 10

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"In my experience as a landlord's rights attorney I have never before been so impressed by opposing counsel. Attorney Grossberg's demand package alone was worth marveling at. It was one of the most comprehensive and compelling demand packages I have ever dissected. We may be on opposite ends of the landlord-tenant spectrum, but there is no attorney I'd want as a tenant more than Attorney Grossberg."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
