I am a California lawyer whose client got dragged into a miserable Massachusetts divorce hearing, at the last minute I discovered that I couldn't just show up in Boston and represent my client. The MA Bar Referral Service suggests Sarah Ireland. Sarah was like a microwave lawyer, I told her the story, pushed a button and bang out poured the best advice I could ever have gotten on MA divorce law. She walked me through the entire process, which BTW was different than CA, and the speed with which she grasped my issues was incredible. The unusual thing is that I ended up using a family friend as my sponsor in MA and hired Sarah on an advisory basis and even 6 months later she was still available to give me advice, which was always spot-on. What I liked the most is that Sarah was an email person always promptly responding to my questions with long emails packed with valuable information including attachments of required forms. At the end of the day, I was admitted pro hac vice to the MA family court, and got a favorable ruling which literally saved my client's life. What makes my situation unique is that I have never met Sarah, she is not the attorney of record and yet her intimate knowledge of the workings of the MA family court system and her eagerness to share that information with me, a total stranger was incredibly impressive. I strongly recommend her especially for a complex case which requires a quick intellectual mind for its analysis.
