I worked with Dax Grantham for 9 months and cannot say enough good things about him! When I…read moreinitially realized I needed a lawyer, I didn't know where to start. I called two places based on their location. One never returned my call and the other called back the next day. He was nice enough but was way too expensive. Dax answered his own phone and was able to get me in same day. His rates were very reasonable and he did a great job of taking his time to explain everything to me. Dax made me feel like I was his only client. Every message was answered immediately. If I had questions after business hours I would email not wanting to disturb him when he wasn't in the office. He always responded within the hour! The last week we worked together I found a letter in the mail requiring an immediate response. When leaving him a message I got an autoreply letting me know he was on vacation for the next week. Knowing that I couldn't wait a full week, I wasn't really sure what to do. The next morning when checking my email I found he responded (from his vacation!) in the middle of the night! You will not find a more dedicated attorney!

Matt was amazing. He kept us updated every step of the way and took the time to make sure we understood what was going on and what was the best course of action for US, not what would bring him the most billable hours. Matt is EXTREMELY knowledgable and always got back to us right away if we had any questions. He is very easy to work with ( I was actually out of state and he went above and beyond to make it work!). I can't say enough good things. If you or anyone you know are in need of a good, hardworking and honest attorney, give Matt a call! You won't regret it!!

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

My husband's evil former employers put us in the unfortunate position of needing a lawyer when they…read morechallenged his and several other former employees eligibility for unemployment benefits. In the letter advising us of our impending hearing, there were several suggested law firms to call. This was the first one we contacted and were lucky enough to be connected to Attorney Michael Mason. The lawfirm charged a flat fee and then gives a reduced rate flat fee if there's an appeal. Mr. Mason was extremely affable and explained the process clearly. He took a lot of the anxiety out of the experience, because he was soft-spoken, optimistic, and organized. I liked him too because he looked like Casey Affleck; my husband was impressed that he knew stuff about the Scottish Premier League. The professionalism of Corrigan, Bennett and Belfort was highlighted on the day of the hearing, when our well-prepared and calm Mr. Mason went up against the disorganized and nervous lawyer for the company. I also think his experience in the unemployment hearings office was a factor in our receiving the judgement so quickly. The next day--and the hearing didn't finish until 2:30pm--we got notice in the mail that the company had lost and that we got to keep the unemployment. I was actually going to give the law firm five stars anyway, but getting notice so fast after Mr. Mason had advised us that that particular judge was usually very fast just affirmed his skills. Should you ever also find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing an employment lawyer, I would definitely recommend this firm. They are (relatively) affordable, straightforward, professional, experienced and kind.

I was eminently impressed with how Todd conducted himself during this arbitration hearing. He was skilled,articulate,and knowledgeable. Additionally, Todd was thoroughly prepared for this case, and he conducted a very impressive cross examination of the opposing party's witnesses, including an expert witness. As a result of Todd's hard work and perseverance, the client was able to obtain a much higher award than was previously offered.

Attorney William Talis has been our family lawyer for nearly 15 years, and his advice has never…read morefailed us. In laypersons' terms, Bill's legal advice has always been how best to treat another human being with fairness, respect and dignity and how best to request to be treated with same. Proceeding from this basis, Bill has represented us to an unquestionably successful resolution of absolutely every situation. I emphasize "situation" over "case." Under Bill's advice, we've never had to undergo the pain a legal case. In my opinion, the most amazing lawyers advise us how to live irreproachably within the law while holding our would-be adversaries to the same standard. That philosophy will never waste the court's time. William Talis is the very best example of the most amazing lawyer! We first engaged Bill to do our taxes in the early 2000's, and he's done so every year since then. In that time, we've seen nice refunds - and yes, we've had to pay occasionally (we grit our teeth!). The point here is not about refunds, it's about knowing we paid our fair share when we owed, and when we were refunded, it was legitimately due back to us. Rather, the point is we are in the secure knowledge our returns will withstand official scrutiny. Don't misunderstand this to imply a challenge to the IRS/DOR, "oh yeah?! Bring it on!" No not all, instead it's a confident public statement, "if in due course it's our turn, we are fully prepared. We have nothing to hide - and everything is in one place for you to see." That's thanks to attorney Talis. With regard to employment-related issues, Bill's word in our ear was this. Our actions post-separation should be in accordance with the spirit of the signed non-compete agreement. Conducting ourselves in a way that will put a previous employer at an unfair competitive advantage is naturally a no-no for any conscience employee, whether current employee (or in the eyes of prospective employers). Yet on occasion, attorney Talis provided us guidance safely away from overreaching and unreasonable employer demands, which are all-too commonplace in this day and age. It's a narrow path to tread indeed! In our most recent "first life experience," attorney Talis represented us in the sale of our house. We couldn't have done it without him - period! The best way of putting it is this. Who among us has a thorough understanding of what we're signing in the sale of a house? Make no mistake though. Those documents form the basis of parting from or acquisition of the single largest financial investment (for most of us private citizens at least) we'll ever be involved in. No one should attempt the process without legal advice in this 21st Century - especially in light of the recent "real estate bubble" crisis. Bill handled it for us in his expert and gentlemanly manner. We made it through without a scratch. We are truly grateful for attorney Talis' expertise, experience and wisdom. Above all, Bill is a wonderful human being! We recommend attorney William Talis highly and unreservedly.
