Composed, compassionate and really knows her stuff

I was referred to Aimee by an acquaintance who had used her for her divorce. I was not disappointed. I tend to be overly emotional, and Aimee kept me grounded and on track :) She is compassionate and professional, and she really cares! I am very thankful to her for all her legal advice in my case!

Excellent, Compassionate, and Caring ...hihgly recommend

Attorney Bonacorsi has a vast knowledge of Mass Law, professional demeanor, and patience. She was extremely patient throughout the entire process, and was always reliable and prompt explaining the best options for me and my children. From that first meeting Attorney Bonacorsi made the difficult proce...ss run a lot smoother. I would definitely recommend her as a compassionate, patient, responsive, and professional family attorney.

Competent, caring and compassionate attorney

I hired Aimee on the recommendation of another lawyer to help me with a mediated uncontested divorce. The mediator had not done a good job of preparing the separation agreement and Aimee was instrumental in getting everything set right. She is very experienced and well-versed in family law and speci...alizes only in this discipline. She was always accessible and answered both phone calls and emails in a timely manner. I found Aimee to be smart, compassionate and dedicated to making sure my interests were protected. She is also very reasonable and not prone to suggesting outlandish solutions, keeping a cool head even when I was upset. I can recommend her without reservation.

Highly Reccomend

Ms. Bonacorsi helped me with a modification in my divorce agreement. She was extremely knowlegable, intellegent and helpful, as my originial divorce agreement had many gray areas that needed much clairification. Aimee was able to guide and assist me by presenting me with all of my options and ultim...ately allowing me to make the final decisions. I was very impressed with how she worked with my ex-husbands attorney in a professional and timely manner as to keep my legal expenses at a minimum. She was extremely accessible throughout; both by phone and email. Working with Aimee, I quickly came to realize through that her caring, understanding and compassionate nature was unique to the field. Finally, I found myself in the right hands, allowing me to move forward with my life kowing that I had, at last a solid agreement that will hold strong until my child came of age. Her work was priceless, as I am now at ease about the future my daughter and I face.

Very Competent &Honest Family Attorney

Aimee Bonacorsi has provided legal council to me through several legal matters related to my divorce as contentious situations have arisen. My original mediated agreement had been poorly written, prior to getting Aimee involved, with much unclear language concerning child support, alimony and custod...y, as well as many other issues. Aimee spent time with me to truly understand my situation and position, working with me and providing excellent legal counsel. In negotiating items related to my divorce, Ms. Bonacorsi worked diligently towards acceptable compromises between the parties while being willing to fight for me when compromise was not achievable. At times where we did need to go to court, Aimee was prepared with recent applicable case law and was proficient at navigating the judicial process as well as understanding the individual tendencies of the judges. Aimee has supported and represented me through situations, some highly emotional and contentious, including a child custody case, and at all times she has acted professionally and treated me and my family with respect and full support. I have recommended Aimee in the past, and will continue to recommend Ms. Bonacorsi in matters related to divorce and family law.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Aimee was opposing counsel on one of the most challenging divorce cases of my career. The case involved very unusual circumstances and presented extreme legal and equitable issues. I found Aimee to be diligent, thorough and a strong advocate for her client, in fact, indefatigable would be an accurate description. Over the course of the case, I came to respect Aimee, her work ethic and her competency. I also came to count Aimee as a trusted colleague within our respective roles: she honored her word. Since that case concluded, I have come to know Aimee as a member of the mediation and collaborative law communities in Massachusetts. I have been impressed with Aimee’s commitment to professional development and dedication to her profession. I have relied on Aimee’s counsel as a sounding board in other cases and referred people to her, which is the highest praise possible."
