Class Act

I was given Meredith's name from a previous client and after consulting her, hired her. She took my case that was a mess and with her hands tied, she was able to come out with a reasonable end. She listened to my concerns and wants and advised me appropriately. She is very compassionate and caring... and works extremely hard. Her integrity and moral compass are exceptional.

Above and Beyond

Meredith Boudrie was the lawyer I chose to work on a very complicated estate of my parents who both died nine weeks apart in 2017. My parents kept very poor records of everything and I have to sort through a desk with thousands of envelopes and papers to find some of the many accounts they had. I b...elieve that because they were both raised in the depression they didn't trust banks in general, so they had their money spread everywhere including cash hidden at their house. Complicating things even more was the fact that there was 17 people named on the will. It took me weeks to roundup and sort through all this paperwork and get it over to the lawyer. She was very understanding and helpful in this time of sadness and frustration. She kept me well informed, which could have been difficult because I live in another state about 1500 miles away. With her work and diligence we were able to get the entire estate finalized in less than a year. This may sound like a long time, but they had over 25 accounts that needed to be cashed in, sold, and transferred to the estate account. Overall, Meredith and her paralegal that works with her was very professional, thorough, fair, and friendly. Meredith truly went above and beyond the normal estate administration. I am so glad that I found such a caring and professional lawyer and would highly recommend her and her team to anyone seeking professional legal help!

The BEST!

While needing to hire a lawyer twice is not ideal, I consider myself lucky to have had Meredith as my lawyer for both instances. In the first case, Meredith did a great job with understanding my financial situation. She was able to advise me, yet still allow me to do as much as I could on my own. I ...really appreciated that on her part. On the second case, Meredith was patient with me, yet advised me honestly every step of the way, looking out for my best interests, and the best interests of my son, but still understanding the intricacies that come with a difficult child custody case. I appreciated her candor, and also her personal attention to my case. I was very thankful to have Meredith as my lawyer on both cases. One more thing, I had reached out to a lawyer in my area about my case. She was not able to help me out, but she was the one who pointed me in Meredith's direction. She has a reputation as being one of the best.

Highly Recommend!

Meredith represented me while I was going through what seemed to be the hardest thing in my life. A custody case is never easy but I felt confident knowing I had Meredith on my side. She was caring and compassionate and she made sure I understood every aspect of the agreement and possible outcomes. N...ot only was she very professional, but so personal. She truly had my family's best intrest. Arin was always super helpful whenever I called with questions and also very caring. They are a fantastic team! I would have Meredith as my advocate in court anytime again.

Divorce

I had the pleasure of working with Meridith during a recent divorce. Everything went extremely smoothly from start to finish and she kept me informed at every step of the process, and checked in frequently to make sure that all of my questions were being answered. Couldn't have asked for a better out...come.
