I just want to say how pleasurable it was working with Ellen. I was in another state and couldn't…read moremake it to court and she went to court for me and was very communicative. Plus she won my case. Thanks Ellen

Disclaimer: The below review is my own opinion based on my personal experience. Your experience…read moremay vary. Hiring this law firm was the most expensive mistake of my life. Run- don't walk away from this place. Unless you want to be verbally and emotionally abused by your own attorney when you're most vulnerable and most in need of assistance. I selected this firm based on the 5 star Yelp reviews but my experience was far from 5 stars. During my consult, the Attorney assigned to my case (Donna Saber) sounded competent and professional- so I agreed to hire Wright Law. However, it took constant prodding and phone calls from me to move the divorce forward over an 18 month period. Donna almost never proactively reached out to me to provide any case updates. It was always me calling or emailing her asking for a status. For the first 18 months of my case, Donna was reasonably cordial (but nearly always hurried, curt and abrupt). However, as we were getting closer to the actual hearing dates ("crunch time") Donna completely let me down. There were meetings and hearings scheduled with almost zero explanation of what the hearing was for, how I should prepare, what I should expect, who would be present. When I would ask these (and other questions) - Donna Saber would become agitated, annoyed and exasperated. Dealing with my own attorney became so stressful because of her temper and erratic volatility. If that wasn't bad enough, Donna was often disorganized and scattered. Example: Donna submitted legal documents for me to sign and notarize that were full of glaring errors including assets (on the asset inventory sheet) that we didn't even mine (we don't own a home in Quincy!). So here I am (the client) paying thousands of dollars in attorneys fees while I proofread and correct my own attorney's work. It would laughable if it wasn't so egregious (and costly). The worst part? Donna screamed and cursed at me (dropped an F bomb on me) on 11/14/25. Here's some direct quotes from Donna during our conversations within the two weeks prior to the first pre-trial hearing in front of the judge: "We already went over this!" "I don't have tiiiiiiimmmeeee for this!" "Oh here we go again with you - around and around!!." It got so bad (and so routine) that every time I saw my lawyer's name on the caller ID I would get so anxious because the calls with were so triggering. She would also get very defensive when I asked if certain tasks have been done or what the plan/strategy is? In my personal experience, I've never worked with an attorney as unprofessional, erratic and volatile as Donna Saber (and I've worked with many attorneys over the years). I tried to speak to the owner or the firm about how I was being treated (Ellen Wright is the owner) but she denied everything, vehemently defended the actions of her employee and offered zero sympathy or support. It's my opinion that Ellen just wanted to make sure she got paid- despite the abhorrent treatment I received by her firm. My personal opinion & experience is that Ellen Wright is extremely money focused and NOT results driven. This firm doesn't appear to care whether or not their lawyers actually get the job done, create effective legal strategies or mediate a successful solution - they care about dragging cases out and BILLING THE MAXIMUM amount of hours they can squeeze out of their clients. Bottom line- don't be fooled (like I was) by the 5 Star reviews. If you're a masochist and thinking about hiring this firm, you should think long and hard if you want to put yourself through the same hell that I went through. Then think about it again. Wright Law should be ashamed how I was treated. They made the difficult process of divorce far more stressful and painful than it needed to be. Read some of the recent one star reviews (check Google Reviews and Yelp)...they're much more reflective of what I experienced. I paid well over $10k to get absolutely ZERO results - no divorce. I had to fire Wright Law and start from scratch with a whole new firm (and a whole new retainer fee). The above review is my personal opinion based on my own experience.

I'm so grateful to have been able to work with Tyler. He's professional, informative, and very…read morepatient. He always provided valuable and insightful advice and helped make a stressful prenup process feel seamless. I was able to connect with him for as many meetings and emails as I felt necessary to fully understand to make informed decisions. He is very approachable and easy to work with. I would work with him again without question or hesitation.

Tyler was a true professional from start to finish, and he made time to answer every question we…read morehad about our prenuptial agreement. My partner was initially hesitant to even sit down and discuss it, but he came around once he understood how important it was to talk through our family's financial future before getting married. We each had our own attorney, but my experience with Tyler was exceptional. He went above and beyond, responding to sensitive questions on his own time in ways that kept our negotiations moving forward, and we walked down the aisle with a signed agreement in hand. I can't overstate the relief I felt after each meeting with Tyler. He made a process that could have been stressful feel smooth and straightforward, and he eased every concern I had along the way. I highly recommend working with Tyler on a prenuptial agreement. These are hard but essential conversations to have with your partner, and having a skilled advocate like Tyler in your corner makes all the difference. Thank you for everything, Tyler. Our wedding day was perfect, and we're excited to start the next chapter as we grow our family.
