Excellent - Highly Recommend

Mary has been our long term real estate lawyer and recently taken care of latest home purchase. She provides excellent advice, is detail oriented and does not waste time or mince words. We have recommended her to two close friends who loved working with her. I highly recommend Mary for any and all re...al estate transactions and contract reviews.

Knowledgeable, responsive and personable

Mary was extremely responsive on my latest real estate sale. Her knowledge is unparalleled (Yale Law). Interestingly enough she is also an Elder Law lawyer and I have been impressed at her diplomacy and tact in dealing with sensitive issues. I would recommend her wholeheartedly.

Exceeded expectations

We were purchasing a home, and Mary was referred to us. Throughout the process Mary was actively involved, paid attention to critical details and overall made the legal/contractual side of the home buying process very easy. An issue with our lender arose and Mary was quick to act as a calming influe...nce to reassure us a solution was around the corner and indeed she had suggestions ready for our reference. Above all, Mary represented and protected our interests to a degree that we were wholelly satisfied and as a result for any legal issues in the future we will be giving Mary a call.

excellent experience

Mary Keating handled the sale of my mother's home with professionalism and sensitivitiy to our needs. I was very impressed with her in every way-- knowledge of specific details of real estate law in our town, responsiveness to my communications, and kindness to my mother. The sale of a loved home, ...particularly when there are three adult children involved, can require patience and skilled listening. We are so happy to have found Mary, on a friend's recommendation, and will call on her again.

Excellent Attorney

Mary has been our corporate attorney for more than 22 years. She has been excellent in creating and maintaining strong contracts for our firm. As a small business owner, I really appreciate her knowledge and advise.

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.
