Rachel Elizabeth Tanguay

Can’t wait to get the minutes from the court hearing and file a complaint against this judge for biased and being sexist against a father. As a an officer of the court and an active sitting judge in Rockland county family court, someone who took an oath to uphold the law and to be fair and not biased..., she’s a joke and should have her cases reviewed. How does a judge tell a father who is fighting to provide a better life for his child, that everything he says is a lie, meanwhile the mother gets on the stand admits to being neglectful, admits to alienating the child from his father, has her witnesses get on the stand and lie (their stories completely conflict with hers), the mother’s own witness testifies the child is uncontrollable and yet the judge steps in as an attorney and LEADS THE WITNESS into giving her a reason as to why the child is acting out to it goes against the father. Goes to show, “Judge” Tanguay solely goes by the word of the mother, never mind what was proven. Never mind court records. Never mind the mother and her witnesses all contradicting themselves. Instead all the perjury don’t by the mother and her witnesses is forgiven bc the mother CLAIMS she’s a first responder, if you looked at the records, you would have seen that was a lie too. Good job Joke.. I mean Judge Tanguay.

Rachel was my attorney for many years and worked hard to ensure that I could see my boys as often as I was allowed. As the years passed, I was eventually awarded custody of my children and Rachel was even able to obtain attorney's fees due to ex's inability to follow through on any orders issued by ...the court. This would never have been possible without Rachel, she did an excellent job as my lawyer.

My parents’ divorce was unfortunately one of the more tumultuous divorces one would hear about. Years of custody battles, child support hearings, and visitation arguments left me without a voice. During the later years of these custody battles Rachel Tanguay-McGuane became my attorney and my voice. S...he was passionate about the law and was interested in me not just as a client who it was her job to listen to because of the check she’d be receiving, but interested me as a person who existed outside of his parents’ court battles. Attorney-client privilege/confidentiality was of the utmost importance to her. She gave me her work number and email but insisted I take-down her cell number in case of an emergency. Rachel was attentive and patient with me as she guided me through practice testimonies for my appearances before the judge. Her judgment was sound and I respect her work ethic and her kindness is to be admired. Rachel Tanguay-McGuane became not just a lawyer, but a friend who realized I had a voice and gave me the microphone so everyone could hear it. Hopefully no other legal troubles are in my future, but if so, I know which lawyer I would call to represent me. I thank her, and we still keep in touch.

I was involved in a bitter custody dispute for years and hired many lawyers. As a man, the odds were already against me before I even stepped into the courtroom. To make a long, long story short Rachel Tanquay McGuane was the only lawyer who got me REAL results- including custody of my son. I high...ly recommend her.
