Excellent Lawyer

My boyfriend and I had the pleasure of working with Attorney John Rauseo for the purchasing of our first place. John helped us every step of the way and made the process very easy. He even helped us find my buyer’s agent who was wonderful to work with. John was quick to respond to our emails and p...hone calls and excellent at following up. He kept us informed every step of the way and even went above and beyond to do his own research to ensure we were getting the best loan rate and even searched comparables on our condo to ensure we did not overpay for it. John is very passionate about what he does and it shows in his work and relationships he creates with his clients.

Excellent & Dependable Attorney

John did an excellent job explaining the law pertaining to child custody. He exhibited honesty and professionalism and was always available which helped ease the anxiety that sometimes comes with change. I felt confident in his ability to get the job done in a timely matter. He also showed the patie...nce needed to get the right result. His experience as a family lawyer is a great asset for his clients. My experience with John Rauseo was 100 % positive and I would recommend him to anyone that is need of an excellent attorney.

Low Key, High Touch Law Practice

John represented me in my divorce in 2008-2009 and was able to negotiate a settlement for me just before the day of the trail. He did a good job of representing my interests, providing valuable counsel and pragmatic advice when needed. He was the voice of reason in an understandably emotional, tens...e and fractious environment. John proved to me you don't necessarily need a "specialist" for a particular type of litigation (in this case family law); a good lawyer with thorough preparation and an eye for detail can sometimes do just as good if not a better job.

Excellent Family practice Attorney

Attorney Rauseo has handled a number of items for me including my divorce, will, healthcare proxy, to LLC creation. He is very honest and fair and always he believes every issue has a resolution acceptable to all.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2001.

Public Reprimand With Conditions issued in MA, 2001

updated on 09/13/2014

Public reprimand means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The Bar warns the lawyer in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior and places conditions on the lawyer's license.

John’s comment:

“This was a book-keeping issue only. No client was harmed in any manner”
