Great Lawyer!

Thomas Foley is a highly skilled attorney. My case involved a personal injury incident, in which we faced a large insurance company. Mr. Foley carefully gathered the facts and advised me to keep an injury log. He was deliberate in not rushing to settle, recognizing the importance of allowing time for... recovery and considering the long-term impacts of my injuries. As one joint healed, discomfort would often shift to another area, highlighting the need for a comprehensive approach. Through aid of physical therapy, I was able to recover from my injuries. Mr. Foley's management of my case was exceptional. He effectively negotiated with the insurance company and consistently advocated for a higher settlement amount. While I was prepared to testify in court, if necessary, he provided valuable guidance on the potential outcomes, and at his recommendation, we opted to pursue a settlement. As a result, I received negotiations that significantly exceeded my initial expectations, approximately double the original estimate. I highly recommend Thomas Foley for his calm and professional demeanor, his expertise in dealing with insurance companies, and his wise client management. He provided outstanding service throughout my case.

Do NOT hire this swindler

Tom Foley was interested at first. Then came the endless requests for replenishing the retainer (with arbitrary charges that were not verifiable). As the case went on he grew more disinterested even letting me know how "weary" he was of my case! I knew I was in trouble and hired another attorney whic...h never bodes well. If you want someone to stay by your side and fight for your interests he is not your attorney!!

Great talker horrible walker

Thomas Foley was disastrous as my legal representation and charged upwards of $3,000 for absolutely nothing. He talked a great game and was nice at our first meeting beyond that things went down hill fast. He was ill prepared for court and actually hurt my case. He misrepresented me to the judge and... had zero of the case facts. He had to be corrected by the judge on multiple occasions, and was fired after 10 days. I hired another lawyer who was amazing. Thomas Foley is not a good lawyer. He is the bad ones who give the great ones a bad reputation.

Exceptional service

My recent experience was amazing! From to moment I gave Mr. Foley my request for assistance he ran with it. I was left relaxed and in responsible and capable hands, when I asked questions he responded immediately and made my mind rest knowing I was in good hands. The case was settled and dismissed....!! I would recommend Tom Foley over and over again, He has definitely earned my respect and I admire his skills in his chosen field. Thank you to Tom Foley and his team.

Thomas J Foley Client Review

Thomas J. Foley has shown great professionalism and exemplary delivery of services during the time he represented me over the past couple of years. I came to him with post-decree issues that continued to not be resolved; this was partially due to poor legal representation during my divorce and the na...ture of my case involving domestic violence. Mr. Foley demonstrated incredible insight and understanding in the dynamics and manifestations of this complex issue and has a solid awareness and recognition of the characteristics of abusers. Had I known or been referred to Mr. Foley at the beginning of my marriage dissolution over five years ago, I would have chosen him to represent me. I strongly feel Mr. Foley could have significantly reduced the amount of litigation involved in my case. He could have prevented much of the post-decree problems he helped clean up due to unresolved, overlooked, and poorly addressed issues during my divorce. This would have saved my family much grief, loss, harm, and economic hardship. Mr. Foley has proven time and time again throughout the duration he represented me consistency and amazing thoroughness in conveying and covering my issues as well as relaying evidence during my hearings. Ultimately, he gave me a voice, my children and I were finally heard, and given justice. I truly believe that if it weren’t for Mr. Foley’s great persistence, knowledge, skill and experience that he brought into the courtroom, my children would still not be protected and our family would remain at risk. I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Foley as a family law attorney. I am forever grateful for the justice he sought and succeeded in affording our family.
