I recently reached out to Attorney Samuel for an initial consultation, and unfortunately one minute into the conversation she realized that I do not live in one of the counties that she services. Despite this fact, she proceeded to discuss my case with me and provided me valuable insight. Her breadth of knowledge, compassion, professionalism, and sense of reason so impressed me that despite the fact that I am unable to engage her to represent me, I felt compelled to write a review. For anyone in need of her services and is fortunate enough to reside in the appropriate county, I would not hesitate to utilize her services.
Jaye represented me through a particularly complex and lengthy divorce where child custody was a factor. She was a consistent, empathetic, and solid support, and she always took the time to help me understand and navigate an unfamiliar process. I would highly recommend working with Jaye.

PROVIDED GENUINE FREE LEGAL ADVICE
So this happened when my father was looking for a lawyer since the lawyer i had didnt have great communication skills. My father wanted to get a second opinion from another reputed lawyer. My father and i spoke to Jaye. She was kind enough to provide over 3 hours of free guidance. She didnt demand to get any payment (very unusal of a lawyer to give free advice). She knew she couldnt represent me as she didnt work with Essex county. She was always available to give me free advice and guide me in the right direction when i needed her support. Lawyers like her will keep your legal fees low and help you get out of the divorce as quickly and as elegantly as possible. She understood where i was coming from and more than that she understood what a father goes through during this tough time.
It is unfortunate she didnt work with my county. She is very competent, great work ethics and treats her clients like humans. Again if she can represent you in your county, please do not hesitate to reach out to her. She is the best out there.
All the best Jaye S. and thanks again for all the hard work you put into guiding me and making my life easy.

Professional, Responsive, Organized.
Jaye was extremely professional, responsive and organized. The case was prolonged due to opposing lawyer and individual dragging their feet, being unresponsive and difficult. Jaye was on top of everything, responsive and always provided appropriate and the best counsel. She answered every question fully (and I had many!) and managed expectations. With such difficult situations, Jaye was professional, sympathetic and understanding as well as able to push things forward and maintain the values and direction I wanted. I am extremely grateful and so glad I chose Jaye to work with.

Jaye stood by my side every step of the way through my divorce
Jaye is an absolutely amazing person and attorney and I cannot recommend her enough! She knows family law inside out and helped me with both paternity questions/issues and later my divorce proceedings and stood by my side every step of the (long) process. She genuinely cares about her clients, their rights and wellbeing. Divorce is tough for everyone involved but with Jaye by my side I felt secure and knew she was looking out for me and my daughter. If I ever need a family lawyer again there is no doubt who I will be calling and I recommend her to anyone needing legal help in family law. Thank you for everything, Jaye!

Wonderful Experience!
As an Indian Citizen, I was looking for someone who can help carry out my divorce in US. To be honest, I was very skeptical at he beginning working with a lawyer in US. I came across Jaye after reading a few reviews by other Indians and I must say that I am very happy to have worked with her. She showed great knowledge in many areas including, but not limited to, property division, Child Custody, State laws, Hindu law and so on. She always had the best interests for her client but not shy of suggesting a move if it was tactically beneficial. She was always prompt and detailed. Overall she is a great lawyer to work with if you are married from a country other than US, I highly recommend her.

Highly reccommend
I hired Attorney Samuels to represent me in an extremely complicated out of state contempt of court issue. She was patient in explaining the various steps that would be involved while ultimately leaving the decisions up to me. She was extremely supportive and did everything she could in order to achieve a positive outcome. Jaye went above and beyond when she represented me. Even going as far as representing me without compensation at one point in time. I enjoyed Jaye as a professional and getting to know her on a personal level. I would highly recommend Jaye and am happy that I was able to find someone of her capacity to represent me in a very painful time in my life.

Best choice in Boston for Suffolk Family Court
When I was looking for a lawyer to help me with my child custody case I looked first at Infinity Law and was initially put off by the fee agreement and I chose another law firm. That was my first mistake and realized it straight after the first Temporary Order (at great expense). I returned to Infinity Law and they represented me for the next 15 months. Jaye Samuels is an excellent lawyer: honest, professional, extremely courteous to all, outstanding communication about all aspects of the case and is not afraid to tell you how it is in order to allow you to make an informed choice and most importantly thoroughly prepares and researches for your day in court and lastly, is tenacious in fighting for you in Court. I had every confidence in Jaye every time we appeared in court or in her dealings with opposing counsel as she listened to what was sought and made her effort to obtain that within reasonable expectations. I highly recommend Jaye Samuels as I feel she is the best choice for an Attorney in Bostons Family Court system.

Trustworthy and diplomatic
The court was fairly demanding and dragged out a process that was in fact fairly straightforward. Jaye handled all of the concerned parties; my-ex, me and the judge with diplomacy and tact.
Thanks, Ms Samuels.

Your best champion
Jaye is a true champion. She is not only professional and extremely capable, she deeply understands the value in keeping her clients informed and encouraged. Any legal struggle can be disheartening, but Jaye has the rare ability to keep your spirits up, earnestly empathizing, all the while managing expectations so as not to create unreasonable expectations. During our year working together, she represented me with an understanding that only comes from truly listening to a client's wants and needs. Jaye Samuels is a stellar attorney and I highly recommend her as anyone's best choice for legal representation.

Alimony Complaint
Jaye represented me for an alimony complaint that was initiated by my ex-wife who wanted to increase alimony and child support payments. Jaye was very professional and well-informed on the new alimony reform laws and the child support laws. The opposing attorney insisted on settling on an amount that was not fair or just. Jaye advised to go to pretrial and was well prepared for the pretrial hearing. Basically, the judge agreed on our position and the complaint was dismissed. I need to return to court within 2 years to revisit the alimony amount and I will request Jaye to represent me. Highly recommended.

Above and beyond!
Jaye is amazing! From the first meeting until the final judgement Jaye was on top of every detail. She kept me in the loop on everything that was happening, answered every question and informed me of all my options. I never once felt as though she didn't have time for me (which I have encounted with previous attorneys). I would recommend Jaye to my closest family and friends, and would not hesitate to hire her again.

WhoCon Review for Jaye
Jaye was wonderful to work with. At our first meeting Jaye read through our summons and in clear laymen terms explained everything to us. She then went ahead detailing a plan for responding to the summons and all options available for filing our own modifications if we desired. Jaye worked with us to help make her services affordable. Before our meeting was over we knew that we were going to hire Jaye. Jaye continuously kept us up to date with all motions and forms she was putting together, explaining the whys every step of the way. This was a very emotional time for us but Jaye made the whole process easy and straight forward. If an issue should ever arise again, Jaye will be our first call.

Extremely Satisfied Client
Jaye Samuels represented me throughout my divorce process.
From my first conversation with Jaye my anxiety level decreased tremendously. Each time I communicated with her I felt confident in her knowledge, professionalism and competence.
I am a person who wants to understand everything every step of the way, with complete clarity. Jaye not only provided me with the clarity I needed, she taught me along the way. It was through the time she took to explain processes to me that I was able to feel more confident with the process and go through the process educated rather than blindly.
As for her responsiveness, she was always on top of things in the most expeditious fashion.
Without hesitation I would recommend Jaye L. Samuels to another person in need of legal representation and/or assistance.

Relationship: Worked together on matter
"I worked with Jaye on very sensitive matter involving a very good friend of mine who is also a practicing attorney (he retained her for his divorce). I found her to be very knowledgeable and extremely well-prepared, as thorough as any lawyer could be. Her navigational skills and command of the courtroom were impressive, as were her understanding and compassion. More importantly, she kicked butt to get the best possible results under rather daunting circumstances. I highly endorse this lawyer with regard to a 209A restraining order, divorce, custody, visitation, child support, alimony, or any other domestic relations matter."

"I have not yet had the pleasure of having a case with Attorney Samuels, but she is an active participant in this forum with detailed, thoughtful, and respectful answers. I usually groan when I see her name appear because she has frequently already answered with what I was intending to say, and there's not much point to posting "Yes, what she said.""
