We won

Jesse was great to work with from the first conversation until the eviction and now beyond. He is very knowledgable in regards to processes and procedures and assure me throughout that this would work out. Jesses is now my goto for any tenant / landlord dealing that may arise.

Every one

We sincerely appreciate Jesse’s professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail. His guidance was both practical and reassuring, and he helped us move forward with clarity and confidence. We are very grateful for his support and would gladly work with him again in the future.

Refreshingly, straightforward, and approachable

Over the past few years, Jesse has handled multiple evictions for me, and the process has been consistently smooth and hassle-free. He's guided me through some tough negotiations with a level-headed, practical approach that I've come to rely on. While I've worked with other attorneys who were perfect...ly competent, Jesse stands out for how efficiently he runs his practice. He's always upfront about potential outcomes and fees.

Knowledgeable expert

Jesse was awesome. Knew exactly how to help me with my first landlord issue that came up. He explained the process and what to expect. I highly recommend if you are in need of Counsel!

Posted by AC | February 17, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Landlord & Tenant

The best landlord-tenant lawyer in Boston

If you need a lawyer for tenant dispute - call Jesse. No need to look further. Jesse's expertise is exceptional. He helped my mom and I with abusive tenant who was in violation of lease terms then decide not to pay his rent. Jesse took it on and led us through the Boston Housing Court process in the ...most efficient way. It took 5- 6 months, but Jesse made it happen. It could have gone on longer. Jesse stayed on the case keeping us well -informed. Don't hesitate - call Jesse if you have tenant issues.
