Melissa Ann Graham-Hurd

My husband and I approached Melissa with a challenging case. Our daughter died suddenly in 2017 from an opioid overdose, leaving behind two daughters and an estranged husband. In the face of his opposition to us having any contact with our granddaughters, we were seeking to establish regular visits... and an opportunity to continue the loving connection we had with these precious girls. Melissa and her team were able to help us in all facets of this effort, from her emotional support for us in our loss, to the careful construction of record of our relationship with our granddaughters since birth, to gaining a positive assessment from a GAL and, ultimately from the court, a sympathetic order. Melissa also helped us stay strong and represented our interests expertly when our defendant complicated our case by violating the order and was found in contempt. She helped find a solution that helped us all move forward and get back on track with the visits. Our whole extended family is so pleased to have these lovely girls in our life now on a regular basis. We are so grateful to Melissa Graham-Hurd for helping keep our family together.

Was recommended to MGH by another heavy-hitting lawyer that retired. I asked for an aggressive men's rights lawyer, and that's what I got. Melissa and her staff were very attentive and timely with everything. Email, phone, text, filing... all throughout my case, they were on top of it. They were i...ncredibly honest with realistic expectations of outcomes - there was no sugar-coating. But where they really shine is knowledge. More than once, Ms Graham-Hurd and Ms Black had to correct and/or explain the law to the Magistrate/court staff/opposing counsel. Had they not been such rockstars, I would have been added to the long list of men getting "punished" by the courts. If you need someone to fight for you (especially men's rights), you can stop looking... Hire MGH.
