I can't say enough about Attorney Nguyen. He helped me with my prenupt and then 7 years later was by my side with my complicated and emotionally charged divorce which took almost 2 years to finalize. Even though the divorce was mutually agreed upon, I didn't want the legal process to cause more damage between me and my soon to be ex-wife and initially I wasn't sure if a man would have the sensitivity to work with an Asian female. Attorney Nguyen was incredible on all accounts. He listened and was sensitive to cultural differences in communication styles/processes between me and ex but at the same time was able to zero in on key issues and decisions that had to be made which left me feeling reassured and empowered. There were many twists and turns in my process which felt exhausting but Attorney Nguyen persisted, was an excellent guide, and always moved things forward. Attorney Nguyen is responsive, determined, transparent, and sharp. I highly trust and value his work.
I consulted with several attorneys that all gave me the "slimy lawyer vibe" before finding Hieu Nguyen. These other lawyers all talked about a prenup with an eye towards an inevitable divorce rather than thinking about the prenup as a seat belt (hopefully something you'll never need but can save you in the event that you do). Not Attorney Nguyen -- he is warm, friendly, professional, and really emphasizes the importance of the client relationship. I immediately felt comfortable and we laughed a lot despite it being an arduous process. I had hired him only for a review, but my fiancee's lawyer was so inexperienced that Attorney Nguyen ended up rewriting the whole thing himself, and the difference between the two drafts showed his obvious experience and depth of knowledge even to a non-legal expert like me. His response and turnaround times are ridiculously fast; he even dedicates himself to the process during his time off and supposed vacations. And on top of all of that, his rates are really competitive! Hire this attorney, you will not be disappointed.

An attentive, compassionate, and expert lawyer
Hieu was nothing short of amazing while guiding me through my divorce process. He always made time to answer all of my questions, and carefully stewarded me through the financial forms while offering expert advice. I never felt like I was always "on the clock" with him when sending emails or texting and he kept me on budget. Hieu also worked well with my ex-wife's attorney, helping to avoid sticky situations as well as making sure I got everything I was legally entitled to. I would highly recommend him to anyone going through a divorce, whether amicable or not. He is a compassionate professional who really knows his stuff, and while definitely skilled in diplomacy, has the ability to be tough if necessary on your behalf. I felt confident that I was well represented at all times!

Compassionate and Knowledgeable Attorney
I cannot speak highly enough of Attorney Hieu T. Nguyen. As a foreigner seeking legal advice in the US, I was initially nervous about the process. However, Attorney Hieu immediately put me at ease with their compassionate and understanding approach.
Not only did Attorney Hieu provide me with invaluable guidance and support throughout my case, but they also helped me with a prenuptial agreement. His knowledge of family law is extensive, and they were able to navigate me through the complexities of creating a prenup with ease.
Throughout the entire process, Attorney Hieu kept me informed and up-to-date on any developments. He was always available to answer my questions and provide guidance when I needed it most. I felt reassured knowing that I had Attorney Hieu by my side.

Supportive, efficient, successful: Made the divorce process not so bad
I didn't know what to expect in the divorce process. I did know that I like to understand things thoroughly, follow rules, and avoid liability. I also knew that I cared deeply for the wellbeing of my to-be-ex-husband, and navigating the process sensitively was incredibly important. Hieu made sure I understood everything that was happening--he assuaged my anxieties when I would dream up potential conflict-ridden scenarios. He empowered me to manage the parts of the process that were better off being discussed just between me and my ex-husband--while also being clear about which parts benefitted most from being black and white and from a legal purview. He made the process feel positive and productive despite being one of the most emotionally challenging experiences I've had. I trust him implicitly and enjoyed working with him thoroughly. I will need to come up with another job for him to do, because I'm not sure recommending divorce is the only way I want to have to recommend his work!

Excellent Attorney - Prenuptial Agreement
Attorney Hieu T. Nguyen was absolutely fantastic in handling a comprehensive prenuptial agreement with short time constraints that had to be met. Not only was he knowledgeable and well versed in his practice but, he was also very kind and accommodating and is genuinely a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him.

My consultation with Atty. H. Nguyen
There really isn’t enough I can say about my experience with Atty. Hieu Nguyen! Right from the start I picked up on his knowledge and passion for the law, as well as his compassion and bedside manner for me as a potential client. He laid before me all avenues I could take with regard to my custody concerns - explaining all possible - and most likely - outcomes. I was able to negotiate what I wanted, and learned when it was best for me to comprise and yield. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. If I need any familial law expertise again, or know of someone who does, I will forever recommend Mr. Nguyen!!

Easy Prenup Process!
I hired Hieu for my prenup. He was extremely responsive and transparent throughout the whole process. The agreement was ready in about two weeks and was much easier and less painful than I thought something like this would be. He is thoughtful and very easy to talk to. He really took the time to understand our situation and provide me with the knowledge to make an informed decision. He was so patient in answering any questions and able to explain complexities in an easy to understand manner. I felt like I was in such good hands throughout the whole process.

Highly recommend
Hieu helped me get through a very long and complicated divorce process with an uncooperative ex, ultimately resulting in a favorable agreement that addressed my primary objectives. In what was a very trying time, Hieu was always a great listener and provided me with great advice. I am thankful to have had Hieu on my side throughout this process and would highly recommend him for anyone looking for a divorce attorney.

Fantastic Attorney
I give Attorney Nguyen my highest recommendation. He took the time to understand all my issues, studied them thoroughly, and provided quick, concise, thorough and accurate replies. His advice was excellent. I was dealing with a complicated situation with my divorce case as I live in a different state and instantly felt better after talking to Attorney Nguyen, Don't even think twice hiring him as your Attorney.

Best marriage attorney you can find!
I was in need of legal help to complete a prenup agreement with my fiance. Being someone not familiar with anything legal I was nervous about the process in the beginning. But Hieu made it super easy for me. He was knowledgeable and patient throughout the whole process. He even went out of his way to look into other state's law to when we were unsure about the wedding location. I recommend him to anyone with similar needs.

Thorough and Compassionate
I had my first consultation with Hieu. He was thorough, patient and compassionate. While providing me all necessary information regarding a divorce process, he also encouraged me to take time to think things over before making a final decision before I file for divorce. He was thinking for the best interests of his clients, and it comes from his heart. I appreciate it a lot.

Attentive and easy to work with
Hieu is very easy to work and extremely attentive. I had a prolonged divorce and Hieu was on top of everything and proved to be an outstanding advocate for me and my son.
Don't let his sunny and affable demeanor fool you. Hieu is hiding a tiger with ninja skills behind that easy smile and affable personality. He can strike quickly when required. He'll lull and adversary into a sense of security and STRIKE.
Be a great client and you'll get a experience.
He's an outstanding advocate and worth every penny. The service exceeds the price you pay.

Happy with my prenup experience!
I hired Attorney Nguyen for my prenuptial agreement. Attorney Nguyen has been very responsive and excellent at communicating with me as well as the other party's attorney. He is very thorough and meticulous. I was impressed by his ability to explain complicated legal terms. Attorney Nguyen will do his best to make sure you understand what you are signing for and you won't feel lost at any point. My experience with Attorney Nguyen was superb and I am glad that I read all of his reviews. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a meticulous attorney with good communication skills!

100% recommended for prenup review
Having looked up many law firms in Boston on Google, called them for fees and consultations but still felt unsure about their services, I found Attorney Nguyen on this website and decided to go with him for my prenup review based on the excellent ratings here. Our first call has made me sure to trust him because I think he really knows what he is talking about. While working together on the prenup, we surely had a tight time but I received very detailed consultations with Attorney Nguyen. He is super punctual, responsive, considerate, articulate, friendly, and mostly importantly, professional. I would highly recommend him to everyone who needs a professional specialized in marriage law in Boston or MA in general.

Fantastic contractual revisions and advice!
Hieu was wonderful to work with in updating my agreement/contract for my freelance design work. He had a quick turnaround time, was incredibly knowledgeable, and thoroughly addressed all of my questions & concerns. He made great edits to my existing agreement and gave suggestions for additional language needed to further protect myself. I'm very happy with this experience and am confident I'll use Hieu again in the future for any legal needs that pop up.

Prenuptial agreement
Working with Hieu has been a true chance for us. Our prenup agreement was ready in 2 weeks, it was extremely easy to communicate together and get things done. I don't know how to recommend Hieu enough for his service but if you are looking to get your prenup done Quickly and Perfectly you should definitely reach out to him.
