I contacted Attorney Cuddy during the pandemic asking him to represent me in my divorce. He was honest and upfront and told me it will take a minute being courts are closed due to the pandemic but he will get it done. He always kept me informed on how it was proceeding. I will forever be thankful for his level of professionalism, honesty and fair pricing. I will recommend Attorney Cutty to anyone looking for a great lawyer. ????

James was very easy to work with, was straight forward and professional. He also put up with my impatience at times since it's inherently a long process, especially during a pandemic. While I hope I never work with him again (another divorce), I would recommend him to anybody going through that unfortunate life event.

Attorney Cuddy made everything as easy as possible. He was a very calm, kind and reassuring presence during one of the hardest times of my life. He was easy to talk to and very patient with answering all of my questions along the way. I would absolutely recommend him.

Atty Cuddy was very accommodating and responsive to all my questions and concerns throughout this process. He explained everything that would occur through the process and presented several alternatives.

From beginning to end, James Cuddy exemplified everything one would hope to find in an attorney. His professionalism and excellent communication kept me in the loop every step of the way throughout my case and helped bring a quick resolution to what I needed. Goes without saying, he is worth every penny!

Matthew Broder is a trust worthy, experienced and excellent attorney. After spending years on a custody matter with another attorney that was not the right fit, Matt took over and was able to achieve the best possible outcome for my case.

I have retained Attorney Marquette for several Real Estate and others matters over the years and I have been extremely satisfied with his service. Very professional, responsive to client needs and the attention to detail is incredible. He is always accessible and returns calls quickly- something I cannot say for some firms. But most of all his passion to advocate for his clients and his vast knowledge of the law separates him from most other firms. I would highly recommend Attorney Marquette and his firm for all your legal needs. I am honored to provide this testimonial without hesitation.

Attorney Marquette represented me and my situation in a professional matter. I was grateful for the result achieved and I am glad that matter is now long in the past. It was comforting to know that I could call him at any time and that he was always available to take my calls. I don't hesitate to say that you should call him for any legal issue that you may have!

Attorney Marquette was diligent in representing my parents in the sale of a commercial building. There were issues that arose during the sale of the property such as environmental and a tenant refusing to leave the premises. He handled the ebbs diligently and brought the sale to a close. He was respectful and communicated efficiently; an accomplished lawyer.

Attorney Marquette was very helpful to me in a delicate situation. He took special interest in me and my legal situation. He was extremely professional, caring and insightful. I would highly recommend him as he is someone who will zealously represent you and care about your well-being.

Attorney Marquette handles cases in a very understanding, professional manner. His experience and knowledge is best-in-class. I would highly recommend him to handle your most important, to most sensitive legal needs.

Claire DeVidas will drag out your case , so that she earns more money, she does not have your best interest in mind. She wants to profit as much as possible off your divorce instead of resolving the issues and settling disputes.

I hired Kieran Costello to represent me in my divorce and I couldn’t be happier. He is very responsive and kept me informed throughout the case. Kieran is very knowledgeable and, in my opinion, is the best in the field. Before I hired Kieran I wasn’t sure how I was going to be able to get through the process, but with his advice I was able to obtain a very favorable result that I didn’t think was possible.

Kieran Costello is the only lawyer I trust to represent me in my custody battle. I was in the worst situation possible before I met Kieran and I thought I was really out of options and scared that my relationship with my children was gone. I highly recommend Kieran. He will fight for you.

I can't speak more highly of the expertise that I experienced after hiring Costello, Brennan and DeVidas, P.C. I was suffering through a very contentious custody battle and divorce until they began to represent me. They have this dogged persistance and get you what you deserve. They are all amazing!!! I am forever indebted to them. Thank you all so much.

I was recently represented by Claire DeVidas in my divorce. Claire was knowledgable, efficient, empathetic and effective. I interviewed several firms and am very glad I chose this one. Highly recommend Claire and her firm.

Maya Murphy did a nice job with my son's car accident. They guided us through the whole process, were very professional and also had a nice personal touch. Thanks for a job well done!

I consulted with Lauren Jacobson to receive professional guidance on Connecticut Probate Court and whether or not the estate I was Executor for needed to go through probate. Lauren responded quickly to my email inquiry, addressed all of my questions, was courteous and professional in sharing her expertise in the area of estate settlement, the deceased's assets, and the tasks the Executor is responsible for.

EJ was so helpful in my moving on from an automobile liability case. It would still be going on if it wasn’t for his guidance and support. I highly recommend him for his compassion and expertise.

Disappointing prospective client intake process, with no clear reasoning from executive committee on why they could not take me on as a client. Spent hours preparing cursory summary documents for intake attorney, but to be told "no specific" reasons for not taking me on as a client does not help me in my legal journey.

The Maya Murphy law firm has brought a security to my life that I never expected to need.  I have found them to be there for me in situations that I never would have predicted.  Knowing that I can turn to them for advice, guidance and support has given me a sense of security in my life.  Their expertise range in all areas of ones life, health, estate planning, personal litagation, business... I'm grateful for everything they offer, and thankful for their kind open door environment.

Jaime was with me every step of the way. She supported me in all of my decisions and provided with names of experts that could help me with other aspects of the divorce such as a certified divorce financial analyst. Both Jaime and Eric made sure I knew all of my options and the consequences of any of my choices both financially and emotionally. They neither pushed me to go to court nor discouraged me; they did provide the pros and cons. They treated me with respect and never talked down to me. They understood the emotional aspects of coping with a contentious divorce. Their experience working with clients similar to my ex-husband was invaluable. I have a child with special needs. This complicates the divorce process. Jaime has experience in the ramifications this has on divorce and helped me navigate the necessary negotiations.

Nicole DiGiose was retained for an emergency situation. Her empathy and understanding of my priorities offered sustenance to myself and my family. Nicole’s representation and knowledge defended against unjust accusations and facilitated a resolution within a timely manner.

Nicole DiGoise represented me in a case where the gap to reach a settlement was pretty wide at the beginning. There is nobody that I can recommend more highly. Nicole is highly accountable, responsive, disciplined, reasonable and compassionate. And Nicole knows the law. Among other things, Nicole has run three marathons. She will be with you every step of your journey. She also knows when to engage the partners (in my case Carole Orland) who provided a deep bench of legal expertise and experience I know I couldn't find anyplace else. Nicole is a David who you can put against any Goliath. If I could give Nicole DiGoise and Carole Orland six stars, I would.

I switched after being treated horribly by another law firm. I told Carol Orland and Chris DeMatte that I just wanted to be treated as a human being. The level of care that the team treated me with was well beyond my expectations! I trusted the team with strategy and they kept the negotiations on a tight time frame that was simply unachievable by others. They were the quintessential professionals, and always one step ahead. I regret not having hired the team in the first place.

Eric and Nicole were terrific to work with, understood the issues, and got us to a conclusion. What more can you ask for?!!!

Jill mediated the divorce between my wife and I. She was fair and impartial. Jill was quick to get back to either one who had questions. She took time to make sure we both understood everything. Explaining and walking us through the financial affidavits. She had compassion for the difficult situations. I would recommend Jill to anyone going through a divorce. Jill is professional and compassionate. Sincerely, Mike Moore

My ex-husband and I hired the Law Office of Jill O'Connor to mediate our divorce. Jill was compassionate while extremely professional. All aspects of the proceedings were clearly explained from the beginning. Jill 's fees were very reasonable and fair and she was able to help us go through the complete process in 5 months, from first meeting to the day in court with judge to finalize decree. I would highly recommend The Law Office of Jill O'Connor. Betsy Moore

Attorney Jill O’Connor and I met during the darkest days of my life. Being a father of two girls and facing a divorce involving an abusive and sometimes delusional spouse who used the court system to inflict pain and suffering when ever possible Jill was steadfast. Her calm demeanor, attention to detail and knowledge of the court systems proved invaluable to me and my children. While I understand my story is not the “norm” it is one of triumph and Jill is one of the main reasons I can proclaim that.

I was already in the middle of a very ugly and contentious divorce when I switched attorneys and hired Jill. She counseled me through an incredibly difficult period in my life and was an advocate for me and my children. She took a very proactive approach to my case and understood that I was dealing with an abusive and irrational spouse that was using the court system to continue his financial and emotional abuse. Jill is exceptionally professional, organized, and has the intellectual understanding of complex financial matters to unravel my ex-husband's financial fraud. I have since recommended her to several friends and will continue to recommend her highly.

Jill assisted in arguing several motions and was able to also clean up my divorce agreement, where my original attorney missed some important steps. I found her to be easy to speak too and understanding, even when faced with a not so cooperative or irrational person. I would recommend her and have recommended her to friends facing the momentous challenge of a divorce.

Jill 's fees were very reasonable and fair and she was able to help us go through the complete process in 5 months, from first meeting to the day in court with judge to finalize decree. I would highly recommend The Law Office of Jill O'Connor. Betsy Moore

    Attorney Jill O’Connor and I met during the darkest days of my life. Being a father of two girls and facing a divorce involving an abusive and sometimes delusional spouse who used the court system to inflict pain and suffering when ever possible Jill was steadfast. Her calm demeanor, attention to detail and knowledge of the court systems proved invaluable to me and my children. While I understand my story is not the “norm” it is one of triumph and Jill is one of the main reasons I can proclaim that.

    I was already in the middle of a very ugly and contentious divorce when I switched attorneys and hired Jill. She counseled me through an incredibly difficult period in my life and was an advocate for me and my children. She took a very proactive approach to my case and understood that I was dealing with an abusive and irrational spouse that was using the court system to continue his financial and emotional abuse. Jill is exceptionally professional, organized, and has the intellectual understanding of complex financial matters to unravel my ex-husband's financial fraud. I have since recommended her to several friends and will continue to recommend her highly.

    Jill assisted in arguing several motions and was able to also clean up my divorce agreement, where my original attorney missed some important steps. I found her to be easy to speak too and understanding, even when faced with a not so cooperative or irrational person. I would recommend her and have recommended her to friends facing the momentous challenge of a divorce.

Appears to be best friends with opposing counsel. Communications with her are openly communicated to opposing counsel. You will very quickly get the feeling that you are just another shmuck in a processing line, waiting for someone to yell “NEXT!” Did not stand up to opposing counsel to require a professionally / correctly prepared divorce decree which then exposes you to more “Pigs at the Trough” lawyer fees.

Very good lawyer she got me a good sum of money for my workers comp case best lawyers ever I will definitely recommend her

Words cannot express the gratitude I have for this woman and the way she helped me and my children through my divorce. She fought for what I needed for me and my children. I could have NEVER done this without her. She is phenomenal at what she does and fights for what you need. I highly highly recommend her!

Linda was great for our first home purchase! Very helpful and always responsive!

Linda has helped me with a number of post-settlement motions related to my divorce. I’ve found her to be exceptionally capable. Linda will fight hard for your interests, but she represents you with the utmost integrity and fairness. She will not tell you some over-optimistic story about what to expect. My impressions of her are that she is a firm believer that men and women should be treated equally by the court, and she worked very hard for me. Linda prepared thoroughly for my court date and when it came to dealing with my ex-wife, she was a rock. I would characterize Linda as a strategic thinker and very tenacious. One example: While sitting before the judge, my Ex submitted a couple of cases she felt represented a precedence in support of her position. In real-time, Linda pulled out her phone and used her resources to very quickly research those cases, summarize them for the court, and state why they were not precedence in my case. It was very impressive. Of course, she had researched all cases that could have had an impact ahead of time. I can recommend Linda without reservation. I will certainly be going back to her in the future.

I met with a few lawyers before a friend highly recommended Attorney Hurvitz. I met with Henry and immediately found him to be relatable and empathetic to my situation. He listened attentively and understood the nuances of my situation. Most of all, Henry was the only lawyer I met with who took the time to get to know "me," not just my "case." I have a journey ahead of me and I'm glad Henry will be there with me.

Attorney Hurvitz is outstanding . He provides sound advice every step of the way and was able to guide myself and my family as needed. He is very prompt in returning phone calls, emails or texts. I highly recommend Attorney Hurvitz to anyone in need of knowledgeable seasoned legal advice.

Henry is the type of lawyer that you should keep on speed dial. He is incredibly efficient and gets the job done promptly. At the time, he gets to know you personally and makes sure to address all of your concerns and questions. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking an excellent attorney.
