The team at Mavrides Law were fantastic with my recent divorce. Jennifer Silva made sure that our children (one special needs and one in college) and my interests were protected and ultimately got us an very favorable agreement when I didn't think it would be possible given how my ex was dragging th e whole process out. Alana was also a crucial part of the team and was so patient with answering my questions or referring to Jennifer if she needed to be the one who answered it. On the court day that was supposed to be for temporary Child Support, Christina and Jennifer worked with opposing council to hammer out the settlement and instead of a temporary motion we had our divorce settled as we walked out of the courthouse to be final in 90 days. They were nothing short of amazing! They never inflated their bill and I can honestly say they fully earned every charge they billed me for. You get what you pay for and this was the best possible investment I could have made for our children's and my future. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who is divorcing whether simple or complex they will work diligently for you and your family.

I hired Attorney Silva to take care of my child support case, and I am out of state. She always responded to me in a timely manner. She was always very patient answering my questions. I worried that the case could drag and add extra stress to me and my daughter, and cost me additional legal fe es. But she was able to close my case at the very first court hearing with satisfactory outcome. With gratefulness, I write this review and recommendation. I am very lucky to have found her to represent me.

Attorney Silva drafted a pre-nuptial agreement for me. Her explanations of Massachusetts law were clear and informative. She negotiated a strong agreement for me with opposing counsel. I was also impressed by her timely communication. She always answered emails thoroughly and quickly. She was on -time and prepared for all phone and in-person appointments. I highly recommend!

Jennifer is a strong attorney and she was very easy to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone.

I paid $650 for a two hour consultation with Jennifer Silva of Malvrides Law. It ended after 90 minutes and I was invited by Jennifer to contact her if I had any questions. Three days later, I did have one question. First, I emailed it and not receiving a reply, I called Jennifer and left a message with the woman who answered her phone. Neither my email nor my call were answered. I made the mistake of thinking that a consultation was merely the first step in progressing my case. I was wrong. I had no right to expect that Jennifer would respond to my communications nor that she would progress my case beyond that consultation. I made a mistake.

Rachel and her team were very prompt and resourceful! Rachel personally spoke with me over the phone numerous times to navigate the prenuptial document between my boyfriend/fiance, who is overseas. There were complexities that she helped teach me regarding the marital prenuptial and she provided gui dance navigating through it all. I appreciated working with her. She also made sure this was completed before our hard deadline (about 3 weeks). It was very important that we get it done and she made sure she met us for that right before Thanksgiving!

Rachel A. Deering is truly a top-notch family lawyer and even a better human being and counsellor. One could not ask for a better advocate. Let me explain. I began my affiliation with Attorney Deering back in 2015 when I first filed for divorce. Since that time and to this day she remains my atto rney in all legal matters related to my family issues, but more importantly someone I rely upon and trust to not only counsel and advise me in family law but also to speak the honest truth if I need to hear it. There have been numerous difficult conversations about my behavior that I have needed to modify. Conversely, Rachel has helped me understand how to better cope and deal with the behavior of my ex-spouse. My divorce involved two wonderful daughters and an ex-wife petitioning for removal, not an easy case to prepare but one that had been littered with many, many potholes and thorny legal issues. The case went to trial for SEVEN days and not once during that process did Rachel falter. Moreover, there have been numerous trips back before a family court judge, which Rachel has represented me every time. I will not wade into the weeds with the messy details but suffice it to say that in the end the resolution and subsequent outcomes were fair and just and much of those decisions were due to the law work of Rachel. In sum, I would be more than happy to speak personally at length with anyone about the facts of my divorce and custody battle, in addition to Attorney Deering’s instrumental role in the whole process. Frankly, I could not have asked for a better family attorney and gifted legal mind. I am very fortunate.

Rachel Deering exceeded my expectations tenfold. I would’ve been completely lost without her genuine support and expert guidance. Rachel is kind, understanding, and compassionate - while simultaneously being a sharp, strategic, and fearless litigator. Her expertise in divorce law was evident from the moment I met her. Rachel took me from feeling scared and uncertain about my future to achieving a positive, fair outcome. Long story short: if you’re facing difficulties navigating the divorce process… stop everything you’re doing and call Rachel NOW. You won’t regret it.
