They are truly an amazing legal team that exceeded my expectations! From the very beginning of my case, I felt heard and supported.

When I bought my house in 2015, my realtor recommended Cynthia Sherman, from Kajko, Weisman &…read moreColasanti. She was absolutely fantastic, walking me through all of the complexities of the purchase. I have used her three times since then for real estate transactions, and she has never left me feeling confused or looked down on. She held my hands through panic (most memorably, the bats we found in my home a week before close and were told we could not legally evict for months!). Cynthia and her support team at the firm have always felt completely in my corner, responsive to my needs and questions, and respectful of me as a client. I would absolutely use them again.

We hired Keira Gibson to represent us in a probate-related real estate purchase. While she is…read moreclearly knowledgeable about real estate law, our experience was frustrating. Communication was reactive rather than proactive, and much of the time we had to chase updates or check the probate court docket ourselves. As first-time buyers, we needed more guidance and reassurance than we received. We also had issues with her paralegal, Stacey, who sent us an extremely rude and dismissive email that turned out to be wrong. This contributed to more preventable delays and costs, and Keira never addressed it with us. Keira's tone was often blunt, dismissive, and at times rude. For example, when my husband (who is an attorney but not a real estate attorney) asked her for her professional estimate based on her experience, she responded: "You're an attorney, you know that the court is unpredictable." That kind of remark was passive-aggressive and unhelpful, and it set the tone for much of our relationship with her. We also repeatedly asked her to communicate with us more proactively, but nothing ever changed. At closing, she asked us to sign two optional items we had opted out of earlier in the process. She said she needed to "check" to make sure we weren't being charged for them in the closing costs. I had already confirmed we weren't, and this is something her office should have caught when reviewing the final numbers. Instead, it created more unnecessary confusion at the table. Keira's style of communication made an already stressful process much harder than it needed to be. Edit: I have gone back and updated my review. After posting this review, the managing partner, Peter Kajko, personally reached out to us. He was kind, heartfelt, and genuinely listened to our concerns. He acknowledged our frustrations, explained the firm's perspective, and took the time to make sure we felt heard. While our experience with Keira was disappointing, we truly appreciated Peter's professionalism and sincerity in addressing the situation

I retained Wright Family Law group roughly 60 days ago. I was assigned Attorney David Gavegnano. I…read morewas very optimistic after my $175 consultation. Which I immediately was charged a $5,000 retainer. Great. I'm Optimistic. The early phase was fair, this is 90% email, say 2 phone calls and 1 Zoom meeting. I was told we needed a 4X4, basically mediation. This came and went. The only agreement that could be reached was to use an App for communication. David was never on the offensive, despite my suggestions. There was no strategy, but to answer opposing Counsels filed Court documents which roughly $1,500 for him to read. I'm a fair person. But this was a joke. $5,000 for reading emails, a couple phone calls 2 meetings. The opposing counsel ran circles around David. If you have $20k plus to go the distance. Go somewhere else. You may as well light $5,000 on fire. Needless to say I fired David today.

I went to Ellen Wright (EWFL) for multiple Consultations over the course of my 18 year marriage…read more She portrayed herself as a hard fighting advocate who could absolutely help me get divorced. But, When I actually did hire her for the job, the performance/ result from her & her firm was lame, disinterested, unorganized and entirely unsupportive. She accomplished nothing on my case, after an entire year of expensive court appearances. She could barely make a sentence in front of the judge, did not follow-up on the key Court Clinician report, did not even try to represent me in Conciliation ~ and as my case was approaching a possible trial, she informed me that she did not do Trials!!!!! After paying this lady $10K for nothing, she is still trying to get hundreds more from me in Small Claims Court. I don't know how she has 5 Star Reviews. When I finally got a real Lawyer (Meg Rubino @ Mansur Law, Concord, MA) my case was satisfactorily settled in 6 months. What is the matter with Ellen Wright? She fawned over opposing counsel at each court appearance and hired him for her Lawyer of The Day Program at the courthouse, During my case. I felt like I did not have any representation with EWFL.
