I highly recommend Susan Mooney

My husband and I highly recommend Susan Mooney. She is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and she takes the time to make sure her clients understand the law. I have recommended Susan to family members and friends, and they have since referred Susan to others. You will not regret hiring Susan t...o assist you with your legal matters.

A fantastic attorney!

Attorney Mooney has represented us on many occasions and we have nothing but admiration for the work she has done for us. She is both very professional and very personable making her very easy to work with. Her efforts on our behalf to guide us through the difficult process of securing MASSHEALTH f...or an elderly relative was successful due to her diligence and compassion. We have been very happy with all her advice and guidance in our estate planning. We have already recommended Attorney Mooney to friends and would not hesitate to do so in the future.

Real Estate Law

Susan Mooney has counseled our firm in all aspects of commercial real estate development and management, with a primary focus on leasing and on the acquisition of commercial real estate. Both she and her staff are knowledgeable and professional. We often consult with Susan on issues where we would ...like an outside opinion to make sure we understand all of the ramifications of a specific decision.

Excellent attorney

Susan was very helpful in assisting us to secure a house in a very competitive market. She was extremely knowledgeable and thorough while advising us in making offers on houses/ completing offer paperwork, drafting our purchase and sale agreement, and negotiating/finalizing the agreement with the se...llers. Susan was able to negotiate a significant credit for us at closing to offset the cost of some minor needed work on the home. She went beyond traditional business hours, working late and on the weekend, to ensure that everything ran smoothly, responded quickly to our questions, and kept us informed throughout the process. We give Susan our highest recommendation.

Wonderful Law Office

Great Law Office with staff that knows what they are doing. Very friendly office and they get the job done. If they don't have all the answers for the case they find the answers.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
