Maura F. Richards

This attorney does not have the experience in probate court, especially against probate lawyers that have been around a long time. I found that Maura wanted to use my money & gamble with my future so that she could get experience. Maura took what was not confrontational between my ex-husband & myself... and made it horrible. Attorneys do that so they profit from it. I had an agreement with my ex. and she tossed it aside and started a fight with him and his attorney (who by the way is a far better atty than Maura) Maura marched in the court room not prepared and made a mess out of everything. She lost me my agreement, lost me money & a postponement for three more months and another court date. Maura does not listen to you, she is abrupt & did not go over the pre-trial memo with me in advance. I had to get a copy of what my atty. did from my ex-husband not her. Not only was the court day in front of the judge a waste, she spoke to me rudely in front of the judge, made me look bad and put a pre-trial memo together that was inaccurate and a waste. Maura also was granted legal fees from my ex-husband and she never got the money for and charged me. In closing Maura does not listen to details that would protect you against opposing counsel. She is rude and abrupt. This is not how YOU want to be treated by someone you are paying to speak on your behalf. I an in the process of filling a complaint because she will not refund the court date that my husband was responsible for.

Having to evict a tenant for the first time and not knowing anything about the process. Maura educated me through the process in a way I could understand and I could not be any happier in making my decision in working with her on this issue. She's professional, thoughtful, responsive, and most import...antly understanding. I also had the pleasure of working with Madeline who assisted Maura on this case. She was attentive to my needs and provided feedback quickly. If I every need a lawyer going forward, she is the first person I would reach out to.
