Common sense mixed in with the law

There are so many lawyers out there and letting your fingers do the walking through the yellow pages doesn't always guarantee you the best. Thank goodness our regular attorney took a trip so Brian filled in. Our whole case changed. Brian was knowledgeable and quick. He guided us through the cour...t maze and from the start was well informed and understood our case. His quick success helped us to get on with our lives. Boy were we lucky.....

Excellent Multi-Project Multi Talented Lawyer

I met Atty. Ladouceur at a networking event around 2007-2008. Within a week of that meeting, my company had need of a good contract attorney to draft a standard service contract that could cover a custom product and its installation. He was prompt, courteous, and very capable, producing the contract... in less time than expected. In 2010, I joined a family to start a brand new business enterprise (really a multriprise, as it consists of several interconnected businesses). The family is the outright owner of the property and holds full possession of the business. I retained Atty. Ladouceur to produce a very streamlined employment contract to ensure I got full sweat equity for building the business, as I am performing 80% or more of all necessary actions (operations, vendor management, facilities maintenance, data management, etc.). Because I am am close friends with the family, having known them many years, they were very reluctant to sign anything (their rationale was that they think of me as their child, so why should they have to have a legal document?) and so we had to work the document down to a manageable length and simplified language. It took more than a year of three-way wrangling, with Atty. Ladouceur pushing to get me as covered as possible. In the end, they signed off, and I am now well-covered. If in future I need a lawyer, I will happily return to him.

Review of Brian J. Ladouceur Jr.

I used Brian's services to help me with the writing of a will and professional advice on estate planning issues. Brian was very thorough, and was particulary patient in his explanations of estate law to me, a person with no legal background or klnowledge. I would enthusiastically recommend Brian to f...riends, family, or colleagues.

Review for Brian J Ladouceur Jr.

I was referred to Brian by a colleague who currently uses his services. I secured his services as my business counsel for a Small Business Loan in 2011. He did a fabulous job during the SBA loan process, which was an extremely frustrating experience. We have just recently secured his services for ...our expansion business loan through the DECD. Brian has also been very helpful over the years when I have legal questions as well. I would highly recommend Brian to any business.
