    Dennis did nothing to help but just added the 1000 fees to me when he did nothing. Advising to go somewhere else where someone more helpful and willing can do something for you.

    I was fortunate enough to meet Dennis and Sue during a small transaction. I only review based on my experience with the company or individual. Dennis and Sue were fantastic to work with. Both are top shelf people and they have worked as a team for 40 years! Hope I never need the service of a law office. But if I do Dennis will be my first call!

    There are simply not enough words to adequately express the gratitude and respect I have for Denise Gonyea and the work she performed as Guardian ad Litem for my three daughters. During one of the most difficult and important periods of my daughters' lives, Denise was entrusted with something absolutely priceless to me as a father: making sure my daughters had a voice and that their best interests were genuinely represented. Denise did not take that responsibility lightly. She listened. She paid attention. She remained professional, compassionate, honest, and focused on what truly mattered — my daughters and their well-being. What meant the most to me was knowing that my daughters had someone in their corner whose responsibility was to advocate for their best interests. Denise demonstrated through her actions that my daughters' feelings, concerns, and voices mattered. As their father, I cannot possibly put a value on that. There are attorneys who simply perform the duties required of them, and then there are attorneys who leave a lasting impression on the families and children whose lives they touch. Denise Gonyea is unquestionably one of those people. Her dedication throughout this matter earned an extraordinary amount of respect from me. She demonstrated the integrity and professionalism that families should be able to expect from someone entrusted with representing children. Long after the court proceedings themselves are forgotten, I will remember the people who genuinely stood up for my daughters when it mattered. Denise will always be one of those people. As a father, saying "thank you" almost feels inadequate. When someone advocates for your children and helps ensure their voices are heard during circumstances that can affect the course of their lives, that gratitude goes far beyond professional courtesy. It becomes something you remember personally. Denise, from the absolute bottom of my heart, thank you. Thank you for listening to my daughters. Thank you fo
