We had a deeply disappointing experience with Crowley and Cummings during our recent home purchase…read more While they were supposed to represent our interests, we ended up doing much of the work ourselves -- and paying thousands for the seller's breach of contract. Several terms of the purchase and sale agreement were not met by the seller, and instead of holding the seller or their attorney accountable, Crowley and Cummings left us to manage the situation ourselves. We -- not our legal team -- had to chase down the seller's contractors, contact the town to confirm permits, and follow up to ensure things were completed before closing. There were also mistakes in the financial transfers. Despite giving clear instructions on how our sale proceeds were to be wired (and even connecting their accountant with our lender), those instructions were ignored. The money was disbursed incorrectly and we were hit with bank fees. The most egregious issue involved a backyard filled with debris, including a toilet and rotting doghouse, which the seller was contractually obligated to remove. Not only was it not removed by closing, but we were told she had 30 days post-closing. She still didn't follow through. We were advised to hire junk removal and told it would be paid from escrow. But the attorney hadn't held back enough, so we were stuck paying the remainder -- for something the seller was supposed to do. In every one of these situations -- from contractor follow-ups to junk removal -- my husband and I did all the legwork, while the firm's response was essentially, "Yes, that's frustrating." In the end, we've spent nearly $5,000 cleaning up after the seller's failure to uphold the agreement -- and Crowley and Cummings failed to back us up. If you want a real estate law firm that will truly advocate for you and enforce the contract, I'd strongly suggest looking elsewhere.

She's very personable, bubbly, smart and efficient. She answers her telephone, returns calls promptly, texts and emails at all hours of the day even weekends.

Highly recommend Amy Saunders!…read more After being taken advantage of with no lawyer while trying to fight a custody court case over my son, every other lawyer said it would cost over $10,000 to get everything back to the way it was and repair the damage done. I initially hired a lawyer who provided me with numerous empty promises but quickly felt cheated and both my time and money were wasted when I'd come to find that he was on vacation for the first full month of his retainer. Needless to say, I felt cheated. Amy assured me that while it would be a tough process, she would be able to fix the legal mess I was in, in a way that was affordable, knowing my financial situation. She promised not to entertain any nonsense from the other party's council or waste time and money over the phone, dealing with petty "he said/she said" nonsense that would be unlikely to be brought up in court. Her helpful associate Amanda provided most of the filing and paperwork. It was essentially a small team of representation for the price of 1. In the end, I was able to get custody back AND she was able to recoup the legal fees I would have owed the other party through finding owed back child support.
