Susan Red is the right counsel that understands, grasps the issue with keen intellect and not only demonstrates she relates to the troubles at hand, but Susan also begins to quickly offer comforting resolutions. No Attorney can make any promises , but when you sign on and hire Susan to advocate on your behalf, (in my case), I felt relieved that finally someone understood exactly my side and Susan was confidently moving forward to fight and be the best and strongest defense possible. Susan Won Me My Freedom! When my situation looked lost and beyond hope , being the outstanding Legal Mind that Susan is and shared with me, solutions that I could never have considered became viable solutions. With Susan as my Lawyer, she was in constant communication and very thoroughly walked with me through every phase of my defense proceedings. Susan and her office staff are very accessible and available to answer any questions as they arise. My advice for anyone having any legal questions and issues, do yourself a favor and call Susan and The Red Law Firm. You will be glad that you did. Thank you Susan!

Never bothered to answer the call or messages.

I was referred to Atty. Sean Barrett by a very close friend. Sean made himself readily available and provided me sound advice that proved useful. He is now my go-to call in the event of any need for representation and I would strongly recommend this business for all who are looking. Great experience!

Peter Billings was very helpful to me in a recent personal injury case. I highly recommend his and Billing & Barrett's service!

I was referred to Atty. Sean Barrett by a very close friend. Sean had too much on his plate, so he had me meet Atty. Peter Billings. Upon meeting Peter, I knew he would handle my case the way I needed it to be handled. Less than 60 days later, and only 2 court trips, case dismissed. Thank you fellas, keep up the great work. Hoping that I dont need your services again, but if I do, it's nice to know these guys are here.

I contacted Peter Billings looking to handle an old warrant. He was very clear and concise about what the options and possible outcomes could be. He will put you in the best position possible for a favorable outcome.

I highly recommend Attorney DeMatteo to be your lawyer! HE GOT MY CASE DISMISSED, and might do the same to yours! Attorney DeMatteo is very compassionate, understanding and a great listener who works effectively. I.e SUPER HUMAN

Chris is amazing. My case was dropped by the plaintiff, an insurance company for a overzealous former employer. Due to his professionalism, responsiveness and being through, Chris was able to point out the flaws and inconsistencies in the case. Which amounted to them withdrawing the suit. If I could give more than five stars I would not just because of the result but because the entire process was as stress free as being sued could be thanks to Chris.

Chris is knowledgeable, thorough, and cool headed. All around, the type of person you want in your corner.

I highly recommend Chris DeMatteo. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and makes sure you get the outcome you deserve. He is always available to answer questions and he keeps you informed every step of the way.

Highly recommend this attorney. Was very professional and took a lot of the worry of my shoulders! He was able to get a suspension off my license and had both a reckless driving and dui charges dropped!

Kurmay and his firm is great. Ive always thought of him this way and have worked with him for years now. But what led me me to make this review is what ive read , about what he how he is fighting for an 88 yr old woman in. Aa soon as i read Kurmay was 9n the job, i knew that our ekderly was 8n goid hands.

As a tooling company, we didn't foresee the need of the assistance of a probate attorney. However, after the passing of one of our partners, Attorney Kurmay led us through the probate system skillfully and successfully transferred our business domain name to the proper parties. Attorney Kurmay was knowledgeable, reassuring and thoroughly explained all aspects of the process. Without hesitation, we will certainly seek his advice with any matters that we may encounter in the future.

Chuck has determination, drive and commitment to any case. He stands by you and fights for your rights. My case has been going strong for almost 9 years, and he faught thru it all. Never leaving my side. If your looking for someone that truly cares for you. Look no further. Chuck and his firm will always be there in your time of need. I highly recommend him for any case you may encounter in your life

Charles is an excellent attorney. He handled my situation in a professional manner and had my issue resolved quickly. Highly recommended!

Charles Kurmay is one of the best lawyers I have met. I needed his help on a issue and he was on top of it real quick. He took the time to understand what I wanted and did what I asked him for. He is still working on my issue for me and he is no where near stopping. I would definitely recommend people to work with him to get their case up and running and get the results they deserve.

I was 100% pleased with the service we received from Kevin Black in a recent family matter. He was very professional; responded to us immediately whenever we had any questions; gave clear instructions; and took care of every detail from the start of the case through to its conclusion. I could not have asked for more.

It was a pleasure having Mr. black and his team represent me. Mr. Black was so professional and responsible. I never had any issues! The best criminal lawyer in CT!

Kevin Black has helped us on many occasions over the years with issues ranging from minor teenage issues, real estate closings and to most recently the creation of our wills. He has always gone above and beyond to accommodate us. At times we had to trust his judgement and vast legal knowledge. I'm so glad we did. Kevin is a straight shooter and will always be honest with you. Most recently I have suffered with some disabilities and Kevin was empathetic and understanding when it came to my mobility issues. He did everything in his power to accommodate us. Kevin is a kind caring individual who will always go the extra mile for you. I recommend Kevin Black without hesitation.

Interacting with this law firm was incredibly exhausting. Attorney Kevin Black conducts himself in a different manner when in front of the courtroom and his peers. Note: if you're going to discuss your outside affairs please don't do it in front of your clients. Beyond Attorney Black's egotism and demeaning manner which was degrading and beyond rude. Lost papers, his presumptuous claims that he knows what he's doing when the end result was completely opposite. Please save yourself the difficulties and problems and hire a lawyer who conducts himself professionally and will put effort into your case.

My divorce case started in 08/18. At the time, I was self representing as I thought I would get a more agreeable settlement with my ex. It turns out that she & her lawyer took that to their advantage to rip me off of hundreds of dollars per week in support. To try to adjust this unfortunate settlement & get the divorce finalized ASAP, I began searching for a lawyer. Enter James Hardy! That lawyer basically took me for a ride for almost 4 months before I fire him, filed a complain against him then hire Kevin Black during the last week of 12/2018! Kevin & Amanda REALLY took care my case & defend valiantly from the start to the end. They were very diligent & provide me with the proper & excellent advice through out the process. They were prompt in responding to my questions & worries. Kevin perfectly understood my case and rectified to the best of his ability most of the bad decision that were made earlier in my case. His cautiously optimistic approach to resolving the matter to the best of ability brought a truly satisfying ending to my case (all support were cut by 50% at least from where they were in 08/18) on 08/19. Kevin & Amanda, again thank you, thank you, for all the great things you accomplished for me! I HIGHLY recommend the team of Kevin Black & Amanda Ell and without an ounce of doubt. R-E-S-P-E-C-T!!!!

Jeffrey Jowdy represented me a couple years back and I have to be honest. The man definitely did a great job. He kept me informed, stayed on task and made me feel secure through out the process. I was very pleased with the end result. If I ever need to hire an attorney again it would definitely be him.

Great lawyers helped me DUI and and referred me to the best interlock company ADS

Nice folks very helpful and knowledgeable thanks John

I was in a tough bind, Jeff Jowdy didn't let me down and has a winning attitude-that is to say- he knows the fight isnt over til its over. I thought I was, for lack of a better term, screwed legally, but Jeff protected me and saw me through to an almost Hollywood feel-good movie conclusion.

I've retained Jeff four (about to be five) times, and he is very knowledgeable, and what I think is very important - he knows everybody. There's a reason I've retained him several times...he's a good attorney.

Recently, our son encountered legal issues, enough to hurt his future regarding his records. We as a parent, were looking for a good lawyer, we found Mr. Angel Lugo and per his previous reviews, we decided to contact him. He was sent by God, Mr. Lugo met with us after business hours and answered all the questions we had. He is very professional, knowledgeable of his work, and a nice person. As soon we enter to the court Mr. Lugo talked to us and we did not have to put a foot in the courtroom, my son's cases were dropped, and his records continue clean. We are very thankful to Mr. Lugo and recommend him 100%.

Attorney Lugo was excellent, I’d highly recommend him. I presented him with a case that had an impossible deadline because I waited until the last minute to get representation and within a week he had it thrown out. Great guy, great service.

Attorney Lugo is very professional and very proficient at his job. He took my case with two weeks of notice and had the task of getting it dismissed or I would lose my job. I had to get a court date prior to 7 April and get my case dismissed by 31March. Attorney Lugo took the task at hand and did just that. He took my case, got us in by 25 March and got my case dismissed. He’s a person who understands you and knows your needs. He is very communicative and gives precise guidance as to what needs to be done. He makes sure he is prepared and knowledgeable before going up in front of the judge. He makes it very clear as to what he wants and as to how he will approach handling your case, I would absolutely recommend him????%..

I recently got into trouble with the law and Angel is the miracle worker who ended all of my problems for me. He is prompt (even answering calls and texts on weekends), understanding, and non-judgmental (to the point where he made me feel normal again). My cases were settled quickly and favorably, and I did not even have to set a foot in a courtroom. Long story short, if you get into trouble with the law, you want Attorney Lugo representing you, he will get your case resolved both quickly and favorably!

Mr.Lugo got rid of two of my cases in which I only went to court twice for, he is very professional and great at answering my questions and my constant texts about updates! The outcomes was better than expected. Definitely recommend ????

Brian Dumeer is not a good attorney, he bribe me to convince my niece to change her deposition in court to favor his client and he was going to work on his client to give the custody to myself and he lied, he used a voice message that i did not allowed him to use since his client did not comply with the aggrement. The worst part was that he did charge the amount of $12,000 without my authorization, His client steeled my credit card and when i found out i requested a copy of the receipt and there was no signature. BE CAREFUL with this attorney, he requests the bail bond to refer him to criminals like the client he defended. I don’t know who is worst if his client that tried to kill her daughter and stole my credit card to pay his service or BRIAN DUMEER that accepted a credit card that wasn’t his client and charged and did not returned the money back in the card. He is not a good attorney; he makes deal with people to try to defend his client because he knows that some cases, he doesn’t have the capacity to do a good job. HE IS A CROOKED, 1O TIMES CROOKED. AN ATTORNEY THAT THREATS A 15 YEARS OLD TO CHANGE HER STATEMENT OTHERWISE HE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DEFEND AND KEEP HIS CLIENT OUT OF JAIL ISNT A GOOD ATTORNEY. DO NOT TRUST BRIAN DUMEER NEITHER HIS TEAM. HIS SECRETARY SELMA IS ANOTHER ONE, SHE IS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL ALSO HELPS HIM ON HIS ILLEGAL THINGS. HOW CAN A ATTORNEY USES A CREDIT CARD THAT WAS STOLEN FROM SOMEONES WALLET AND DID NOT EVEN QUESTION OR REQUIRES A SIGNATURE? Been fighting with my credit card also the Bars association and he used information provided from his client that other than have an attempt murder also is a criminal to do not pay back the money he earned illegaly

Carlson and Dunmeer were incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. They were able to answer all my questions and provide me with any further details to give me a full picture of the process. I would highly recommend them to anyone. You’re incredibly friendly, professional, and informative through and through. Even when things became complicated they were able to walk me through the whole process providing me with all the necessary information and options. I felt like I was in great hands while working with them. I can’t recommend them enough.

It was a pleasure working with Brian Dumeer and his team. They provided the utmost patience, respect, and professionalism. I would highly recommend Carlson & Dumeer, LLC.

Brian Dumeer was a great lawyer, very responsive could text him most hours of the day with questions and he would explain the scenario and outcomes, positive attitude and friendly staff in the office. Can't say enough good things about this company and the attorney

They were very professional and responsive to my case. They guided me through the process and helped me out tremendously. I highly recommend their services!
