Nice people i love themAxel Braud2024-08-15I refer cases to Brian and Frank all the time. Brian is my go-to source for any issues relating to estate planning, probate or bankruptcy. I referred a good friend to Frank for a divorce and Frank did a great job. When my clients have these types of issues, I send them to Devane, Fogarty and Ribezzo.Joe Daigle2024-05-17Frank represented my daughters father in making changes to our custody agreement. Unlike my lawyer, Frank was competent and straight to the point. Our schedule can be confusing but he understood it clearly, thankfully for me! I wish I had hired him. My lawyer still couldn't tell you the schedule even if he was looking at his notes.. I don't usually write reviews but considering the absolute awful experience I had on my end, I thought it was appropriate to give credit when credit is due.marisa puleo2022-06-09I HIGHLY recommend Attorney Brian Fogarty! I had a few legal issues that came out of nowhere and they were causing me GREAT distress and concern. I discussed these situations with Brian and found him to be very knowledgeable, honest, forthcoming and pro-active in helping me deal with these issues. He was very attentive to my request, needs and questions and always got back to the same day that I would contact him. If you need legal assistance to guide you through this confusing and difficult legal system call Brian, you won't be disappointed. I certainly wasn't..... RFRay Forrestal2019-04-18Attorney Fogarty has been a pleasure to work with. He and his staff allowed an automotive accident to be as painless of a process as possible. I'm very pleased and plan on working with them again in the future with any legal matters.Jeff Rogers2015-11-04
