Kerri Quintal

Before I begin, if this is your first time into the legal system, especially the criminal justice system, know two things: ONE- lawyers are expensive. Think of them as a black bottomless pit in which you throw money, and that the longer you’re into it, the more you’re stuck, because you’ve already pu...t x amount and quitting would mean throwing thousands of dollars out the window. So if you’re going to be in it, get ready. TWO- the criminal justice system in this country is a joke. It is not a TV show. Get ready to have your life turned upside down and make sure you have a lawyer who will guide you safely through it. So if you’re ready for it, I would recommend Kerri. She’s got a small office just north of downtown North Attleboro. She listened to our case in our initial interview and agreed to take it. Once in, she always asked specific questions and took copious notes. She never left us in the dark. She never ripped us off. We got specific bills as to the services provided and we never felt like she was padding her time sheet. She genuinely cared about us and our case. Kerri is a tortoise instead of a hare. She spends a lot of time collecting and strategizing. She never took wild shots. She went to EVERY length to give us the best possible outcome. This is a great thing, by the way. Perry Mason is a fictional character. What we got versus what the DA wanted was extremely different. The DA wanted a pound of flesh. Also- our judge was terrible and should have been retired a long time ago. So with these insurmountable odds, Kerri pulled through. In fact, I asked three lawyer friends how she did and they all said she got us an excellent outcome. The only two negatives are that sometimes there were spelling and grammar errors in her paperwork. Maybe this is the fault of her legal secretary. The other negative is that she’s a bit snappy when it comes to any unpaid balance. We agreed to pay x amount per month and have been honoring it, but we still get “collection” style letters that feel adversarial. I’m sure there are clients that have stiffed her, but after all she did for us, the last thing we would do would be to not pay her.
