I am not fluent with Yelp but as you can see I downloaded pictures from the early 90's in and…read morearound '93' of the house... Like I say: I took out a Building Permit with the City of Worcester. The Building Inspector's name at the time was Mike Pace. So, I was a Carpenter in Local 107; the Carpenter's Union in Worcester. My dad was MA State Buildings Inspector up until around 1985. I graduated from WBTHS, Worcester Boys Trade High School in 1974. The City can't find the records. I drew all the Plans up at the Carpenter's App Training Center back in 1992. But my mom subsequently destroyed the plans, and had the City records Kaput, I think she trashed it all. I don't know where anything is? The City ought to have the records fair and square. And they evidently don't. Anyway; I got everything all signed off by the Electrical Insp. the Fire Department, The Plumbing Inspector, and the Carpentry too; with an 'Occupancy Permit' too, back then in '93'; I've been living here ever since. I've showed you only the outside, I can't even begin what was going on, on the inside yet. I forgot to post the new Boiler room picture and the heating baseboards... I'm not good with YELP 21 Esther Street There's 4 floors here, plus a cellar underneath, I just spent 1 month getting my daughters gas fired hot forced water boiler all up and running...& spending $1,000.00 dollars It wouldn't work right for weeks, then I finally got it. At the building department the guy could only find a recent permit for plumbing in 2012. All sewage was coming up through the toilets in the basement because the city raised the sewage lines in the street with a larger circumference pipe in the street where top portion of the pipe was above the toilets in the basement. So; I've been doing maintenance all these years, even that plumbing permit was for a 'Back-flow preventor Valve' due to the city's new sewage pipes in the street... I had to instruct Mom to get a Back-Flow-Preventer Valve. I had to clean-up all little shit balls all over the basement apartments because the City put a new Pipeline in. The top of the wider pipe was above the toilets in the basement, so when it went over capacity the toilets over-flowed due to no back-Flo preventer valve in between. So who cleaned all that up and threw-out the rugs while mom got an insurance check for a flood and she got reimbursed for a Back-Flo preventer Valve which I recommended. It took weeks to dis-infect the place and get it back to normal. This is just one small maintenance problem over the years I've been here. But in times of flooding the pipe fills-up, the water, was higher than the basement apartment... so I had to rip all the rugs out in the basement and disinfect... my mom got flood insurance and the City had to reimburse her for the 'Back-Flow Preventer Valve', and the installation. Yes all these years doing maintenance thing here; for free My mother was getting old and she a type of had dementia from smoking cigarettes her whole life, especially when she passed away, but she had it due to smoking all them years... Deprivation of oxygen. Anyway; my sister steered her in all her decisions before my mom died... She had a bad time of it and turned afraid with a type of paranoia from dementia... I could only try to stay away. I have to go way out of my way all the time to not say anything outlandish to my sister as she is there only to smile and ANTAGONIZE any situation, that is to say, that she goes way out of her way to start conflicts by antagonization methods, she calls just to try to talk down to me? Her Lawyer stated that they were closing at the end of the month, this month January. I don't really know how they can Close on the house without any notice like in a week. I guess I got a letter I just found: "Attorney Josephine Valer from Michael Matthews. Hi, good morning, Mr. Matthews. My name is attorney Josephine Velia. I represent your sister Susan Luton. Can you give me a call the office? Uh, I'm gonna send you an email, um, my office is actually closed today, but it's 508-987-3981. I am looking to discuss with you um the execution of the deed. And a resolution, um, this is supposed to be closing at the end of January. So, give me a call so that you and I can discuss it and see if we can work out something to get it resolved for all parties. Thank you" from her attorney The Fire Inspector's Last Name was 'Sena'; He's now about 88 now: I think he's still alive actually, they must've suspected arson as he always looked at me kind of funny on other jobs. Wow! After going to Iraq a couple times: I got a Bachelors Degree there in Building Construction Management, from 2012 to 2016 at Wentworth Institute of Technology: 'WIT". I guess the lot in the back of the three decker is still in the kids names because when my dad passed in 1988 half the back-lot went to the kids whereas the other h

Chisholm Chisholm & Kilpatrick (CCK)…read more My experience with CCK was extremely disappointing. When I contacted them, I was met with a dismissive and unprofessional intake representative who refused to answer even basic questions about their process. I was told they would not speak with me at all unless I first obtained a withdrawal letter from my current firm -- even though I made it clear I would provide one if they decided to take my case. As a veteran, I expect professionalism, respect, and clear communication from any firm that claims to advocate for veterans. Instead, I encountered rigidity, poor customer service, and a complete lack of courtesy during the initial interaction. If this is how they treat veterans at the very first point of contact, I can only imagine how communication would be once they have your case. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend CCK.
