Real estate and estate planning

I cannot agree more with other reviews I find on this site. Arlene Keating is an attorney should never feel afraid to call. It's a comfort to know when you need advice, you have an attorney you can depend on. That is what makes me write this now. I am getting ready to call. I know I can always ge...t professional work without going to Boston and she is great to work with. I have used her in numerous transactions with different specialties. She will always be my first call.

Outstanding, Knowledgeable, Conscientious, Trustworthy RE Lawyer

The title says it all. I have been through both buyer and seller RE sales with Arlene as my lawyer. I am SO glad she was referred to me years ago by a local real estate agent. Arlene forms a relationship with her Clients based on trust, knowledge, commitment and humor (so refreshing). Arlene is focus...ed and forceful, but with a sense of humor that not only helps with the legal work, but is enjoyable separate and apart from the working relationship. I have contacted Arlene nights, weekends whenever needed and she is always there responding quickly. She makes the process easier to deal with not only with her knowledge / recommendations, but by using, in addition to verbal communication, technology to communicate via emails, scanned documents, etc. I was able to close a sale in Mass from Florida with Arlene as Power of Attorney. Trust, integrity, commitment to do the best job possible, etc. all for a very reasonable fee. She is well respected and totally protects your interests while remaining available, pleasant. attentive to details and patient in explaining status and developments, all providing piece of mind that? Need I say more....

Life Saver!

Arlene Keating is so good at what she does. She was able to bring issues to light that I was unaware of which could have easily squashed my dream home. As a self employed single mom she went above and beyond what any attorney has ever done on my behalf. I recommend her to anyone who wants the piec...e of mind that your real estate transaction is secure and extremely well executed. She had my best interests in mind at all times.

Satisfaction guaranteed!

I've also used Arlene Keating several times for real estate closings in Massachusetts and Portsmouth, New Hampshire. I found her to be knowledgeable, accurate, competent and always professional. She’s been very helpful, since I moved to Portsmouth, with information regarding certain New Hampshire rea...l estate laws that differ from Mass laws and might impact current and future transactions. I’ve been completely satisfied each time she handled any/all of those transactions and plan on using her services this year, as an estate planner. I trust her opinions, advice and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others.

Reliable Real Estate Attorney

We highly recommend Arlene. She has represented us numerous times in real estate transactions. She was organized and assisted in making a daunting process very bearable. During closings Arlene advocated on our behalf in a professional manner. Without hesitation, we recommend Arlene as a trustworthy ...legal advisor.
