Attorney MacAdie was recommended to me by a forensic accountant in the area. I was at a point where I had retained two attorneys prior to being referred to attorney MacAdie, and almost quit/dropped my case out of frustration from working with attorneys who don't care and were not knowledgeable. I knew from the first consultation I had with Attorney MacAdie that she was unlike anyone I had worked with and retained her immediately. She listened to everything I said and I didn't necessarily have the data to back it all up, but she BELIEVED me and put a strategy in place to expose the truth and win my case. My case took nearly 3 years and was very complicated, but attorney MacAdie could always pivot and navigate expertly. My ex hired an opposing attorney out of pure threatening tactics, but attorney MacAdie never wavered. She is the best of the best. I cannot thank her or recommend her enough. My case ended with a positive outcome - and this was after two prior attorneys told me I should walk away. She is phenomenal and has the expertise, skills, and tactics to achieve positive outcomes for her clients. Attorney Foley provided a couple of suggestions for my case as well. Everyone in this office is lovely to work with, including their paralegal, Stephanie.
I first hired Jessica to represent me in my divorce. Jessica's calm and confident demeanor put me at ease during a highly stressful and emotional time in my life. I knew she genuinely cared for me and my children's best interests. While divorce is never happy, I was satisfied with the positive outcome for myself and my children. A few years later, I did not hesitate when I again needed legal assistance in a family matter. Jessica was my first call. She always made me feel like I was her most important client. My confidence in her was well placed as she was able to bring my case to a positive resolution once again. Foley and MacAdie are an excellent law firm. They are highly professional while being kind and empathetic to their clients. Financially they are transparent about the cost to their client. The services they provide are well worth what they charge. I would hire them again and highly recommend them to anyone needing family legal services.
Jessica, Bryn and all the staff was so very helpful. I came from a different firm which I had been dealing with for my divorce for over a year and felt like nothing was moving along. They consulted with me on my first call and kept in touch throughout the whole process of my divorce. They were so friendly, and knowledgeable and really made me feel like they cared about me and not just my money like the previous firm I had hired. I would (and have) highly recommend this firm to anyone wanting to get divorced. Even with the whole pandemic going on they were able to get my divorce finalized without even a zoom call to the judge. Highly, highly, highly recommend them.
Foley & MacAdie are an amazing group of professionals who have not only helped me during the tough process of custody battle but fought hard for a father's rights whose parenting time was being minimized by the opposing party for their own benefit and desires. Historically I was involved in the children's life for over 50% for time for years and the crook's tried to reduce it to less than 20%, Kathy and her team of amazing professionals not only helped me regain what was rightly fully mine but also stood with me against the bullies. When I approached Foley & MacAdie, my case had already mishandled by another law firm however, they accepted my case and Kathy and her team gave me confidence , listened and reviewed the facts and started to work on my case...within few months the damage caused by my previous lawyer was minimized but most importantly I was able to go back , see and spend time with my children. I must say Jessica is a very professional and a tough negotiator who knows what she is talking about, I am impressed by her skills. I have no words to thank this amazing team as they gave me a purpose to live once again in my life!!! This team has Integrity, This team is Honest , This team is Professional, This team is humble and above all have empathy ! My best wishes for Foley and MacAdie Team!!!
After being extremely disappointed in my legal representation for my divorce, I stumbled upon Attorney MacAdie and things turned around quick! While my prior counsel was lackadaisical in his representation, Attorney MacAdie was aggressive when she needed to be, but was also able to reign me in when she thought it necessary. My case involved a lot of complicated assets such as RSUs, trusts and my wife's pension, but she was able to navigate through all of the finances and settle the case. While no one ever "wins" in a divorce, I was happy with the outcome.
I can't say enough good things about Jessica and her firm. I was involved in a rather contentious divorce and she always remained calm and supported me the whole way through. She simplified a confusing legal process and made sure I understood all of my options. I had complete faith in her and it paid off! I couldn't be happier with the result!
I recently worked with Jessica to resolve a very contentious custody dispute with my ex and I can't recommend her enough. She was knowledgeable, encouraging and the dedicated advocate that my kids and I needed. It was an emotional process, but she was there for me every step of the way. I am eternally grateful to her and her firm.
I contacted jessica with an emergency related to my ability to move out of state to accept a job offer. I had literally days to make it happen. Jessica met with me the same day, drafted a motion by the next day and within 2 weeks I had the okay to move. Jessica kept me up to date and was VERY prepared for our day in court. I could not have accomplished this without her!
Jessica helped me with a modification action, which sought more parenting time with my daughters. From the start she was honest, informative and upfront about the process itself and what she believed were the pitfalls of my case. She set realistic goals and expectations for the outcome of my case and always kept me informed. I read the negative review that was given, and disagree with all of it. Her paralegal ally was always very polite and personable, as was her law clerk Steven. My case was ultimately settled, which i realize would not have been possible without her assistance an d the caring assistance of her staff. Thank you jess! You saved my relationship with my daughters!
Attorney Macadie helped me through a difficult time in my life with caring and utmost professionalism. She kept me informed, was willing to answer any and all of my questions and handled my case with ease. I put the lives of my children in her capable hands and would do so 100 times over.
