Five areas of law.
Hundreds of details.
Family Law
The decisions you make here will ripple for years. We help you make them clearly.
Family law touches the things that matter most — your children, your home, your future. We approach every matter the way we'd want one handled for our own: thoroughly, candidly, and with the long view in mind. Where we can resolve things outside of court, we do. When we can't, we're prepared.

Real Estate Law
A house is a contract, a title, and a closing. We make sure all three are airtight.
We've represented thousands of buyers, sellers, and lenders across Massachusetts. From the offer-to-purchase through the closing table, we read every line so you don't have to — and we close on time. Most residential matters are handled on a flat fee.

Elder Law & Estate Planning
The right plan, made now, is the kindest thing you can leave behind.
Estate planning is less about death than it is about love — for the people who'll be sitting at your kitchen table after you're gone. We build plans that fit your family, your assets, and your wishes — and we update them as life changes. For families already in probate, we'll walk you through it.

Business Law
The boring paperwork that quietly keeps your business running — done right, the first time.
Most small business legal work isn't glamorous, but skipping it has a way of becoming very expensive, very fast. We help local owners form their entities, draft the contracts that protect them, and untangle the situations that come up when partners disagree, vendors stop paying, or it's time to sell. Plain-English advice, flat fees where we can.
What we help with
- 01Entity formationLLC, S-corp, and PC setup
- 02Operating agreementsAnd shareholder agreements
- 03Commercial contractsDrafting and review
- 04Commercial leasesFor landlords and tenants

- 07Employment agreementsAnd independent contractor contracts
- 08Succession planningPassing the business to the next generation
Civil Litigation
When the conversation breaks down, we're the people you want at the table — and in the courtroom.
Not every dispute ends in court, and we work hard to keep yours from getting there if a better path exists. But when litigation is the right call — or the only one left — we prepare every case as if it's going to trial. That preparation, more than anything, is what gets favorable settlements when settlement is possible, and good outcomes when it isn't.
What we help with
- 01Contract disputesBreach, interpretation, enforcement
- 02Real estate & propertyBoundary, title, and ownership
- 03Consumer protectionChapter 93A and unfair practices
- 04Small business disputesBetween partners, vendors, or customers
