I had a very complex case and my original lawyer had an obligation that prevented her from continuing my case. In a pinch Snehal was contacted, got up to speed, and took over the case without any hesitation. That was important to me as my trial approached and I couldn’t present my case without representation. Many obstacles were faced outside the courtroom in regards to the other party, thankfully I Snehal’s professionalism and knowledge to help guide me through. In the end, Snehal presented a strong, honest, ironclad case that was able to express the truth to the court and helped me get full custody of my daughter. I can’t thank SPM law enough for being supportive, caring, and productive the entire process.
Snehal was recommended to me from a highly regarded and trusted attorney. Her determination and dedication is unmatched. She made a burdensome process bearable. I appreciate her expertise and skill.

AMAZING ADOPTION
INITIALLY MRS MASSEY WAS A PART OF A LARGER LAW FIRM THAT I COMMISSIONED TO HELP ME WITH MY ADOPTION. WHEN SHE LEFT THE LAW FIRM I COULDNT IMAGINE WORKING WITH SOMEONE ELSE SO I LEFT WITH HER. THE PERSON ATTENTION AND KINDNESS SHE GAVE ME MADE ME FEEL SO COMFORTABLE AND CONFIDENT IN THE ADOPTION CASE. SHE WAS ON TOP OF EVERYTHING THAT WAS NEEDED. WHEN THE COURTS ASKED FOR NEW COPIES OF DOCUMENTS ALREADY SIGHNED AND GIVEN TO THEM SHE WAS ON IT AND WE GOT THE ADOPTION DONE VERY QUICKLY. SHE WAS KIND AND COMPASSIONATE AND A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH. THANK YOU MRS MASSEY

Excellent Family Lawyer
I was just about to begin what initially looked to be a contentious divorce. Unaware of where to start I began my search for an attorney. Mrs. Snehal Pulivarti Massey was just the person that I needed. She is thorough and concise. I would definitely recommend Mrs. Massey for legal matters regarding Family Law.
The facts of my case were that I already had a nuptial agreement however parts of the agreement were being challenged. Mrs. Massey made professional recommendation that allowed me to proceed with the divorce in a way that worked in my favor.
I’m thankful and eternally grateful for her help.
Thank you!

Above and Beyond!!!
Snehal was everything that I could ever ask for as a representative in my child custody case. She took the case and promptly began working towards fighting for reunification with my son. After a tough long battle with documents, emails and conversations. Making sure that every detail was intact and I was well prepared for the trial. I won the case and got my son back into my custody!!!! Snehal went above and beyond to ensure that I would have my son in my custody - she even sent a Mother’s Day card with a special message. I never knew a lawyer that cared as much as Snehal. I truly believe that if you decide to work with Snehal you would definitely be satisfied.

Reliable representation
Snehal was great to work with. She possessed great attention to details regarding my Divorce case. Snehal always had a plan of action prior to our conversations. Snehal made certain I understood all my options; even worse case scenario so I can understand and be able to make informed decisions in the event we had to go to trial. I absolutely appreciated her team approach to this difficult, long and painful process and I felt comfortable and safe in her presence. I was successfully granted my divorce on 1/25/21. Thank you Ms. Snehal

Ms Massey is outstanding.
Snehal is absolutely amazing. Before I was referred to her because of a divorce, I was very unsure and afraid for my future. Snehal’s extensive knowledge and strong defense gave me the confidence that I can get through this very difficult time. When I was in a panic, she kept me calm and told me that everything is going to work out. At times throughout negotiations, I felt like giving in to my opposition but Snehal stood firm and would not allow me to give in on something that was not fair to me. Her actions made it clear that mine and my child’s best interests were her top priority. Her defense of me made me feel that she was defending me as a person, not just a client. She knows that her time is your money so she does not waste time. I cannot thank her enough for everything that she has done for me.

Love this firm
My friend recommended this firm as his ex wife used them and his words "they tore me up". I made the appointment. Snehal Massey is one of the best! She fought for me and my son. I was updated regularly and she reach out weekly just to check in and see how my son and I were doing. I got exactly what I wanted out of my divorce.
I would recommend this Snehal Massey she is a fighter for what is right and will go to battle for you.

Highly recommend
I hired Ms. Massey over a year ago to help me with a very convoluted and messy child custody case. She has worked tirelessly to help me with the best outcome. She is kind, knowledgeable and willing to listen to what you want and need to happen, as opposed to strong arming you into settling like some other attorneys might try. I look forward to working with her until my case is closed and I would recommend any of my friends and family who might have to go through something similar.

Our grandson was going into the United States Marine Corp and we needed to have a POA to take care of some of his business after he shipped. Ms. Massey was very professional, efficient and knowledgable in advising us in the proper steps that we needed to take to make this happen.

Supportive and Efficient
I first contacted Snehal to get prepared for a possible divorce after being recently separated. She clearly explained options and the process of how things may occur to help me be proactive. Once divorce proceedings were initiated Snehal was very easy to get in touch with over email and efficiently completed all necessary documents without me physically having to come into the office! All things were handled conveniently and quickly. Divorce was a piece of cake with her by my side. I was so happy with the experience I also updated my will with Snehal as well. I would recommend her to anyone in need of legal counsel and services.

Thank you!
I want to take this special opportunity to thank you for accepting my divorce case. I never thought I would get out that terrible marriage of 17 years, this was the worst marriage in today's history. I wasn't aware of my rights to end the marriage. Then you helped me understand and worked with me constantly you stayed in touch with me on every step you made to end the marriage quickly. Because of you, i have more money than I ever had in my life. I was awarded 50% of 401k retirement plan, car, and 5 years of alimony and more.
With this said from the core of my heart, thank you so much for fighting for me when I didn't know how to fight for myself. May God bless you and your awesome career a million times or more.

Mrs. Massey is an excellent lawyer. She listens to your problems and concerns and follows through. I hired Mrs. Massey, to help in a child custody case and I was very satisfied with the outcome. She always returned calls and emails and made herself available. Felt like my needs were met and I am very satisfied. I will use Mrs. Massey again. I now refer her to everyone.
