Audrey Heidt O'Shaughnessy's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse Audrey

Elder law lawyer | Aug 01

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have worked with Audrey on several Probate Court matters in which she was appointed as Guardian ad Litem to represent an incapacitated interested party, and served with her as a fellow MassNAELA Board member. Audrey is exceptionally knowledgeable in the areas of Estate Planning and Elder Law. Her GAL reports are by far the most comprehensive and well researched GAL reports I have seen. At a recent hearing, the Probate Court judge said in the Courtroom that he had read Audrey's report from start to finish and that he wished all GALs prepared reports of this caliber and quality. Beyond her expertise, Audrey is respectful, compassionate and friendly. Those are qualities that unfortunately are not found in many attorneys. Because Estate Planning and Elder Law can involve complex material and stressful family situations, Audrey's personality is a tremendous benefit to her clients. I unequivocally recommend and endorse Audrey."

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.
