After having some issues with our landlord, Arthur walked us through many of the challenges we were facing. He explained everything in detail and never pushed us more than we wanted. He was extremely responsive and understanding of the circumstances we were under. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a lawyer familiar with real estate. read more

I hired this attorney to help me with a security deposit issue, and I honestly regret it. Communication was frustrating, and I never felt like my situation was taken seriously. I expected much better after paying for professional help. Unfortunately, I would not recommend them based on my experience. read more

I sold my house and hired this attorney on a friend's recommendation. Things were okay until the buyer's inspection came back. There were a few items I was willing to credit, but I needed a straight answer on what was reasonable. I emailed and left a voicemail. Heard nothing for four days. By then their agent was saying they might walk. We ended up giving more than I wanted just to hold the date. The attorney later said they'd been in court. That's fine, but nobody was watching the file. I felt like I was the one managing the deal. I wouldn't use them again. read more

I hired Arthur Hardy-Doubleday, trusting he would handle things honestly. Instead he lied to me about key details and took advantage of the situation for his own benefit. Felt completely used. Would not recommend. read more

Before I moved in to my new place Arthur went above and beyond to verify the property and landlord history. Fast forward, when I started having troubles with a roommate. Arthur laid out the game plan. His knowledge of the law and patterns in people, really helped me stay ahead of the legal battle that eventually came. I felt prepared, I had my timeline and paper trail ready. Arthur then connected me to a colleague who represented me. The idea of going to court and having legal troubles made me anxious, couldn't sleep sometimes. Arthur always responded, gave reassurance, looked over everything. In events where you need legal support, having a lawyer that cares about your life and outcome outside of the courtroom is essential. You want to keep fighting and Arthur really gives you the time and attention to push through the battle. read more

I reached out to Arthur for help with my landlord-tenant case. He told me he would send an engagement letter the next day, but it never came. I followed up a week later by email with no response. A week after that, I called, and he again said he would send the engagement letter the next day. It has now been another nine days and still nothing. Unfortunately, the lack of follow-through and communication made it impossible for me to move forward with him. read more

I had a previous attorney who basically "tried" to help me through her assistants, transaction-coordinators, and people working on her behalf. After feeling completely disconnected with the lawyer that was supposed to be helping me, I decided to take the advice of a friend who referred me to Attorney Doubleday. To my pleasure, I got an immediate response from Arthur himself! And in all subsequent contact. Not only did he return my calls, emails, and texts promptly... he took the time to explain my case to me in detail. I'm not a lawyer and I do not understand the lawyers jargon. He took the time to explain every word, every possible outcome, and even the outcome of historical cases that were similar to my own. Thank you for making me feel safe and protected all throughout the entirety of my case. Johnnie Cochran could not have done a better job! 15 Stars for Attorney Doubleday! read more

Arthur is a great attorney. He is a great advocate to have in your corner. He helped me on my dispute with my landlord, where my landlord was trying to bully me into moving out. He stood up for me and even though my roommate was uncertain and wanted to just give up and just move, Arthur assured me that we had a great case and we just needed to "take a chill pill." I sat on my hands for a while and after a few volleys, the landlord finally caved and settled the case. The time from him taking my case to getting a settlement was less than 2 weeks. My settlement was for more money than I really could have hoped for and helped me pay for moving expenses and the costs of moving. I will always be grateful for the help from Arthur. read more

Snake oil salesman, fulfilled none of his promises, was ill equipped and always asking for more money and then ultimately we ended up spending more money on the lawsuit, then we got in return. He essentially did absolutely nothing for our situation. read more

Arthur has helped me with a number of business law issues as well as some 93(a) consumer issues. He is very direct with his advice and I am certain that following his recommendations have saved me many headaches and legal bills. read more

After being subjected to some serious neglect and disrespect from my former landlord, Arthur and his team made me feel valued and heard. His team negotiated with our former landlord and they were able to get us exactly what we were requesting, but there's nothing more validating than being heard and being told that you deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. Thank you, Doubleday Law. read more

I needed new representation with an ongoing and complex landlord tenant dispute when I came across Doubleday law. The transition into working with his office felt seamless; although his assistant was wonderful I've only had the pleasure of speaking with her a few times because Attorney Doubleday contacts me directly. To be honest I recognize that I can be a person that is not always easy to work with, even more so in high stress situations and throughout the entire process I have leaned heavily on this attorney and his office to guide me; not once was I let down. This case has been one of the most difficult times in my life. Attorney Doubleday fought for me aggressively and professionally but he also took out the time to ensure that I felt heard and that I understood every option that I had along the way. I would highly recommend this lawyer for anyone looking for capable and compassionate representation ***** read more

Thanks to the assistance of Arthur I was able to settle several issues I have had with landlords. He is very knowledgeable and helpful.

I hired Arthur to help me with an issue regarding my landlord and some illegal fees they were charging us for our pets etc. I had never felt so anxious or unsafe in my own home because of the landlords threatening behavior when I approached them about the illegal fees. I'm a single youg woman living alone so it was a bit scary to deal with. Arther turned all of that around immediately and all communication went through him and they stopped harassing me. I had my peace of mind and my home back in a matter of days not to mention my two security deposits. I would highly recommend Arthur and Double Day Law. read more

I found Doubleday Law when searching online for lawyers to help with a refund problem I had with an apartment complex. After reaching out to Arthur through an online inquiry, I received an email in less than an hour from his assistant. She scheduled a phone call that same day with Arthur and he quickly assessed my case. By the end of the phone call, I was convinced that I was in the right hands, because of his extensive knowledge about tenants rights, and by discovering some wrong doings from the apartment complex. Not only did he help me solve my problem, but HE TOOK NO FEES, because of how small my case was as he puts it. Yes, that's right !!! I am just amazed by how professional, transparent, flexible, and knowledgeable the whole Law Firm is. All my emails, calls, and inquiries were met with fast and incredible responses. And he actually answers his phone calls and replies to emails sent directly to him. I will happily recommend Arthur's services if you are looking for a solid, transparent and effective counsel. All the best to Arthur and his firm, and no doubt I am going back to him whenever I need representation. read more

I highly recommend Arthur. Usually it's hard to get an attorney on the phone but not Arthur. Mr. Doubleday was right there for me every step of the way. If your going through an issue with your landlord and not sure what the next step is please call him. I didn't know attorney's like him actually existed. At first I was worried that maybe I would not be able to afford legal representation but Arthur worked with me. Pick up the phone and call him you will not be disappointed!!!! read more

In both my personal and professional capacities, I have worked extensively with attorneys who practice in all areas of the law. During the two years that I worked with Arthur on my case, I found him to be extremely knowledgeable, highly responsive, and gracefully accommodating of the fact the that some clients prefer to be hands-off while others like to be more actively involved in their cases (I was the latter). What impressed me the most was observing his work in court on the day of our trial, which I can only describe as surgical. His command of landlord-tenant law, the rules of evidence, and trial tactics not only impressed me, but I think also created a very positive impression of myself and my case for everyone in the room. I would enthusiastically recommend him to anyone. read more

My family hired Arthur after we seen all the nice reviews on here and he did not disappoint. He stayed in contact all through our case and kept us updated all the way to the end. He fought for what we deserved and not a penny less. I am very happy with the outcome and I will refer him to my friends if they ever need a lawyer. read more

Arthur is very down to earth, has a sense of humor and does the best for his clients.

I contacted Arthur regarding an issue with my lease/property managers and he was extremely helpful, I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Arthur Doubleday is an excellent lawyer. I'll admit when my wife and I and our very young two children were being harassed and almost put out on the street by our landlord, I felt helpless in not being able to afford someone to help us out. As a shot I called Arthur not expecting much and I recieved a call back 43 minutes later. He took in account we didn't have a lot of money and worked with us financially. When it came to knowledge of Massachusetts Real-estate law, Arthur took quick action and got my family what we truly deserved. He's a lawyer that won't go into business making families go hungry just to get paid and even with an unfortunate death in my family during our case he took the time to send us a card with his condolences. I recommend Arthur Doubleday to anyone who is scared to hire a lawyer do to financial reasons or to anyone that cares of family values. Arthur will put you and your family first and make sure you get what you deserve. I can't say enough. Thank you sir. read more

Arthur has been a great help for myself and my husband in the case he just helped us close last week. I happened to find his blog when I was researching a problem we had with our previous landlord who was becoming difficult to deal with in returning our security deposit. After I initially reached out to Arthur, he emailed me back within half an hour of receiving my inquiry through his web site. We were on the phone the same day and he quickly assessed not only the two areas where I found I needed help but he knows tenant rights so well he spotted a couple other areas of concern in my favor. Arthur is knowledgeable, transparent, always available (he actually answers his phone!) and a great ally along the way. At no point did I ever question if he was doing right by myself and my husband in this case. He was also incredibly helpful with talking through different routes to take based on responses from opposing counsel. I happily recommend Arthurs services if you are looking for solid counsel. All the best to Arthur and I hope that if I do need representation again some day we will get to work together again. read more
