Great lawyer

Aaron did a great job him and his staff are professional and on top of things emails and phone calls keeping his clients informed about our insurance case resulted in a victory for us

unmitigated disaster

Aaron Boland was arrogant, disrespectful and totally unprepared. He had had three trials in the two weeks before my three day trial. Mr Boland did not cite law when arguing motions; he says he never objects to questions or responses which is absolutely unhelpful because he does not create a record.... IMHO not objecting is really malpractice. Also Boland did not get crucial exhibits into evidence—including both expert reports. He did not know that the objections to one of the expert report were not based on good grounds (question expert status, relevancy or standards used) but was based on prejudice to the other party but without stating any grounds. He did not quote Rule 26 or any case. He did not know or argue that the other side waited 36 days to file this motion to exclude the expert’s report; he did not point out that the other side was late in filing its reply…In fact Aaron seemed to be gunning for job with this law firm. Boland did not allow me to take notes or look at the defendant’s exhibits before the trial. He missed valuable opportunities to use their exhibits against them. Even though I gave him an outline of what exhibits needed to come in with what witness—he completely ignored that. However he wanted me to cull down the exhibits and was in danger of missing the deadline for the exhibits when he told me that he was “giving up his art class” on Th afternoon to get the exhibit book done. He was late filing conclusions of law and even later filing the findings of fact—so late it was useless. He apparently had no closing argument. “Well if a dog barking is a nuisance than surely flooding in a house is too” He waited forever to speak with my witnesses and waited until too late to subpoena in a city witness who was then on vacation…He is an unmitigated disaster.

Knowledgeable, common sense lawyer

Aaron was extremely helpful on two cases involving my son. He provided excellent advice and demonstrated an effective, relationship with the responsible DA, which let to positive outcomes. His fees were reasonable. Aaron was responsive and provided excellent perspective on the pros and cons of the... available options. I would highly recommend him.
