Thankfully I was referred to Curley Law firm. Attorney Curley and his team did a remarkable job in helping my parents and I. He and his team really dedicated their time and hard work to make sure my parents and I didn't loose the house and was able to get my dad on Mass Heslth in 3 months time!!! (Which is record timing !) I can't say enough good things about this firm. My parents and I would have lost everything if it wasn't for them. I highly recommend them, especially when dealing with elder affairs! I will forever be grateful!!!! I also want to especially thank Debbie Tura, she really made me feel comfortable and made me feel more like a friend than a client!!!!

The second time was when my elderly father had ~$4k "misappropriated" by the employee(s) of a nursing home. In that situation she was utterly useless. Not only did she fail to act, she failed to provide any useful advice aside and charged my father for it. Tragically for her she won't be getting paid unless and until the state attorney general can recover the funds from the nursing home and its employee(s). Do yourself a favor. If you need an elder law attorney, go elsewhere.

We hired Karl to handle the closing details of our home a few years back and he handled everything…read morewith the professionalism that you would like to see. His manner is down to earth, and yet he is on the ball with all the details that these legal matters require. More recently, we sold a commercial piece of property and without hesitation, I contacted Karl to handle that transaction as well. The commercial deal required much more detailed interaction between the buyers , their representatives and ourselves and Karl guided us at every twist and turn. He was a calming influence as we dealt with the entire process! Karl introduced me to his partner, Chris; who handled the final details and the closing. He, like Karl was a reassuring voice to me in handling the matter. I would definitely recommend their services. They were quick to return my phone calls and totally professional in their advice and in educating you on the process.

I was referred to the Law Offices of Colonna & Doyle by a friend who was very pleased with their services. I see why! During my 1 year of treatment I had to deal with having my car repaired and a rental car and all of the hassles that came with that. The medical bills were getting higher and higher and my stress level could have been as well, but, I never had to deal with anything. All I had to do was email anything I had received for copyas, etc to their offices and that was it. I dealt with Daniela, and I have to say she handled and was on top of every aspect of my case. All I needed to do was go to my appointments and work on my healing and getting back to normal. She checked in with me weekly, sometimes more, and kept me up to date on everything. I came to depend on her for everything, and I was never let down. I cannot say enough about the level of dedication and kindness that I was shown and the feeling of relief that I did not have to go through this process blindly. I had the utmost confidence in the team at Colonna & Doyle and I thank them for helping me along the way and in turn coming to a resolution that was successful. Thank you to everyone! Regards, Stephanie Byers
