Meredith helped me remove my child from the state as quickly as she could. I have a complex case and it was time sensitive. We also ran into a few delays from the court, but Meredith advocated for us to a higher extent than most would. She is personable and very knowledgeable. As a current client, I recommend Meredith to anyone.
I hired Meredith to represent me in my divorce and also to do my estate plan after my divorce was finalized. She is bright, intelligent, caring and compassionate. She always replied to my emails promptly and was able to explain complex aspects of my case in a way that made sense to me. She also took a lot of time to ask me questions which helped make a huge difference in the outcome of my case. Meredith is easily the most knowledgeable and honest lawyer that I've dealt with. After my divorce was final, she helped me prepare an estate plan. Knowing that my children would be protected if anything were to happen to me gave me great piece of mind! Meredith made a difficult period much easier for me. If you are going through a divorce or need an estate plan I would highly recommend her.
I worked with Meredith on a real estate transaction; everything went smoothly and without a hitch. Since I had to be on the other side of the U.S. for the upcoming holiday, Meredith was my proxy on the day the home sale closed. She not only was very responsive, but also was a good communicator, staying in close touch with me, my agent and the buyer's attorney. I especially appreciated Meredith's professional, but personable demeanor. Based on prior experiences I have had with attorneys, Meredith is very timely in her feedback and follow up on issues. The Dedham office also provides convenient access since it is located above the bank building; ample space is available in the parking lot, depending on time of day. I only wish I had worked with Meredith earlier when I had an terrible situation mismanaged by two other attorneys who were poor communicators and wasted my time. If the opportunity presented itself, I wouldn't hesitate to work with Meredith again!
Meredith is an amazing lawyer. She is quite skilled at both family law and estate planning. She deftly handled every aspect of the always confusing and often challenging divorce process. No divorce is ever easy, but mine was particularly complex, involving enforcement of a prenuptial agreement my ex and I signed in another state over 20 years ago and a complicated co-parenting situation. In short my case required a great breadth of knowledge. Her ability to not only understand and apply the law but to also effectively manage all the personalities involved was nothing short of astonishing. In addition, Meredith has cultivated a network of highly skilled specialists who were always available when I needed them for an appraisal, tax analysis, etc. She is articulate, composed and highly professional both in and out of court. She truly made the impossible possible and now that my divorce is over, I look forward to having Meredith help with my estate plan.
I could not be happier with the results Attorney Stratford was able to provide. As a Dad it is so difficult to get a fair shake in Massachusetts when it comes to family law situations. My only regret is not having her by my side in the court room in years past. I would highly recommend her to any dad/mom looking for a skilled and knowledgeable family law attorney. I have had several attorneys in the past and now I just have one, Meredith Stratford, Esq.
My divorce was complicated and difficult. Meredith was instrumental in determining the alimony allowed. The process was overwhelming and lengthy she explained in detail what I was to expect. In the final settlement her knowledge proved to be most effective. I was comfortable working with her during an emotional period of my life. I would highly recommend her for legal representation.
Meredith was my divorce attorney when I was going through my divorce two years ago. She did a great job representing me through the process. She was very knowledgeable and very helpful answering all of the questions that I had. I would highly recommend her for anyone going through a divorce.
Attorney Stratford was extremely helpful throughout my divorce proceedings. She kept me well informed and was honest at all times. I highly recommend her!
I've been fighting for my children for almost three years, Meredith has been by my side the whole time. She's always been completely honest with me and is always there when I need her. When we show up to court she's always very well prepared and organized. She makes you feel as if you are her only client. I would recommend Meredith to anybody.
Unfortunately I didn't have Meredith by my side when I got divorced but I had to go back to court two years later. At that time I hired her as my attorney and thank god I did. She was excellent!!! She was my back bone. My ex husband is the type that tries to break you down so you give in but Meredith became my strength and fought for me. I would have given up without her. She is a great attorney but more then that she's a great person. Thank you for all your hard work!!!
