I was injured on the job in 2017, I didn't seek out legal advice until I was told to return to work against my surgeons advise or I would be terminated. The day I received that letter from my employer, I called Jane Edan's office and she met with me that day. I met with Jane and Attorney David Maille. They both were very personable, friendly, knowledgable and comforting. I received a notice in the mail on a Tuesday, requiring me to return to work the next day or I would be considered abandoning my job and would be terminated. David Maille was assigned to my case. He drafted a letter to my employer while I was in the office, explaining to my employer I was unable to return to work at this time and sent them a copy of my surgeons note stating the same. It was a very trying time for me & my family, thinking I may be terminated after 25 years working for this company as a supervisor because I was injured. In my opinion the Worker Comp process is broken, They delay medical treatments & play games with the injured employees. I can't say enough good about how well David handled my case. If I had a question or concern, it was addressed right away. The communication from their office was like nothing I've ever seen before. Phone calls were returned same day. If David was unavailable, I would receive a call from Jane or their paralegal Linda. I never felt like I was alone. David settled my case that exceeded my expentations by far. He went above and beyond making himself available to me at times that I wouldn't expect him to be available, but he was. I can't say enough possitive things about Jane & David and I would refer them without reservations to anyone in need of representation for WC. If you need an attorney to go up against the big WC insurance companies, David is the professional pit bull you'll need. David, Thank You for everything you have done for me and my family. Warmest Regards, Brad

We hired Attorney Jane Eden. With a personal touch and all the knowledge you could ever need, Jane worked at getting the case reviewed, resolved, and finalized with a professional and friendly manor. We cannot say enough about how great we were treated. Never a question as she made sure we had all the information we needed at any time and quick to respond with extreme attention to detail. We will only think of this practice if we ever need anything again and will refer any family and friends to her as we were shown great respect and a more than willing attitude to get the job done. Thank you so much Jane.

I hired Attorney Jane Eden after the lawyer I had representing me at that time was retiring and referred me to her. I was suffering from a horrible back injury that I suffered at work. So, I did my homework and found out that Attorney Eden was not only qualified to represent me, I was, in fact, extremely lucky to have found her. Each of her qualifications were remarkable! I soon found that many of the standards and guidelines which are followed by Massachusetts Law, Attorney Eden was on most of the committees that actually wrote those guidelines!!! I was completely in awe and KNEW that I was in the best hands possible. Once I signed on with Attorney Eden, we sat down for an initial consultation, she thoroughly explained the entire process to me, answered questions that I had and then she created my profile. Then, she and her team went to work. (and work they did!) Within a very short time, I was receiving weekly WC checks to help me with living expenses, bills, etc... I cannot begin to tell you how easy Attorney Eden made this process seem. I would ask her, "Attorney Eden, is there anything that I can do to assist you?" Her standard reply was always, "Your job is rest and most importantly...recovery!" Many of you reading this already know that insurance companies are notorious for not wanting to pay out claims or approve anything. Well, with Jane in my corner I am happy to report that each of my claims has met with complete success. That's not to say it wasn't a battle. We encountered many of those, but ultimately Jane represented my interests successfully at each and every turn. I quite simply cannot say enough great things about Attorney Eden... She's professional, kind, extremely hard-working, knowledgeable, she makes herself available whenever I had questions, and she is a Rottweiler in the court room. Tell me? What more could anyone ask for in an Attorney. And as a subsequent footnote, Jane also represented me in my SSDI claim and she won that for me, too! Without Jane Eden, I really don't know where my life would be today. I wholeheartedly recommend Attorney Jane Eden in any of your Worker's Comp and/or SSDI claims and issues. In my humble opinion, there is NO BETTER!!! Jane... thank you for everything you and your team did for me. This is one client who is ever so appreciative!

Jane represented me on a very complicated workman's comp case. She handled all the legal angles professionally. She answered every question, addressed every concern, and when the time came, presented my case with great passion. Throughout the process she never forgot I was a human being. She always expressed great care and concern for me as well as my family, my health, and our future. She also saw me through the process of Accidental Disablity Retirement which is another long arduous process. I would highly recommend Jane Eden for any workman's comp or retirement case.

Attorney Jane Eden is an excellent attorney. She did a great job handling my case and that was after I was told by other attorneys that I did not have a case. She is a caring professional that displays a genuine concern for her clients' well being. In a court setting, she was very affective and well respected by both the judge and the other attorneys. Her office is conveniently located with easy parking. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced attorney.
