The only lawyer you should be considering!

Evey Diaz is a highly skilled, professional, and EXTREMELY knowledgeable lawyer. My divorce was a high conflict divorce, child custody case. Evey was not only extremely knowledgeable, but she was highly sensitive to the fact that it was proving to be a traumatic experience for all involved. She woul...d 'check in' with us and make sure we knew what was happening at all times. Beyond being a highly skilled and extremely knowledgable lawyer, Evey devotes all of her time in her clients. With such dedication that should put you at ease knowing that your case will be handled fully, professionally, and right the first time. She walked me through all options about my case, making it easier to weigh my options. She was always on top of emails and other communication and I knew what was going on with my case almost as quickly as Evey found out herself. Without Evey, I wouldn't have known where to start with my case. I could not have asked for better representation, and working with Evey was incredibly easy, and the least stressful part of a very difficult, painful event in my life. I’m moving forward with my new life on a very positive note and also knowing that I was represented by the most professional and well-rounded attorney that anyone could ever ask for and my children are safe. If you need peace of mind when faced with a court case, Evey Diaz, is the attorney you should be considering. Our community truly is blessed to have a professional, highly skilled, knowledgeable lawyer like Evey Diaz. I will forever be grateful for her and will always recommend her to my family/friends.

Great advice and person!

I was looking for a new attorney and talked to Evey. She was so generous with her time and gave me great advice. At the end of a long conversation she warned me that it does not look good for me to be changing lawyers to the Judge. I had interviewed 3 lawyers before her and no one had given me th...at advice. I appreciated it, especially because she had given me so much time. That alone showed me she was a woman of true integrity!

Best experience during the worst time

I can not speak highly enough about Evey Diaz and the entire team at Grimaldi and Pesiridis. I'm sure there are a lot of people out there that get blindsided by a separation and when you have children that is very scary. You just don't know what will be thrown at you. In my case my ex threw the en...tire kitchen sink at me and then picked it up and tried to hit me with it again. She hired a firm that I have to believe doesn't care about the child and their best interest in a custody matter. All they care about is fighting as dirty as possible to ruin whoever they are up against. They hurled lies and erroneous claims and, since we were never married, they used those lies to keep my daughter away from me for 8 months to gain an upper hand in our case. Apparently, in Massachusetts, if you were never married then the father has to prove paternity and has 0 rights in regards to their child under the eyes of Mass law. With all of that said from the moment I was referred to Evey she was upfront , honest and most importantly was willing and wanted to fight for my rights as a father. She left no stone unturned in getting to the actual facts in my case. She worked tirelessly to make sure that I got the best possible outcome. I truly do believe that if I had a different Lawyer I would not have custody of my daughter now. At the beginning it seamed bleak since my ex came out swinging, however Evey kept me calm and assured me that she would make sure that my rights as a father would granted to me and that she would not stop until all of the false claims and erroneous accusations were proven false and I would get custody back. Well, she did such a good job my ex fired her lawyers and after a master class in negotiation she was able to get me a custody agreement that at the beginning never seemed possible. The best part is because of her tenacity and attention to detail she got this agreement without even having to go to trial. I can't put too many details in this because the guidelines say so but trust me when I say that a negotiated agreement without having to battle it out at trial should earn Evey some sort of award. Thank you Evey, Marc and the rest of the team at Grimaldi and Pesiridis. I will forever be grateful for what you did for me and my beautiful daughter!

Above and Beyond

Evey was a great resource during a challenging time. She was professional and helped me to navigate the process smoothly. When we ran into some road bumps with the courts, Evey was an amazing advocate for my case and was able to help get things wrapped up as quickly as we could.

The BEST!

Evey is the attorney you want on your side. She is smart, strategic and detail oriented. She puts in the hours to analyze your case from every angle possible, knowing the possible outcomes before a motion even walks out the door. Evey is able to speak softly with her clients keeping your care as a p...riority, yet never misses a beat with her opposition. She is the attorney you want representing you.
