About

My passion to help people less fortunate than myself initially led me to law school.  Upon graduating from Penn, I went to work for the Legal Aid Society in Brooklyn, New York in the Criminal Defense Division.  I worked there for a number of years, until my husband's job required us to move.  I continued to work as a public defender for many years, in many states, and helped an innumerable number of clients with their criminal and family law cases.  Ultimately, when i had my second child, I left public interest law, and went into private practice.  I have been in private practice since 2002, and i continue to take on pro bono cases so that i can help those less fortunate. When i am not practicing law, you can find me volunteering in my children's elementary, middle and high school, on the tennis court, or out running the streets of Newton and Boston.

I've known Victoria Spetter for over 20 years. During that time I never had a need for an attorney. But, earlier this year I was dealing with a domestic issue that I needed help with. I contacted Victoria and she helped provide me with the tools and support I needed to prepare for my case. I was grateful to have her on my side and it helped me a lot when I appeared in court. I find her to be honest, knowledgeable and thorough. In addition, she has an approachable quality that made the very stressful situation I was dealing with much easier to handle. My case was resolved and I've been able to resume my life with this situation behind me. I would highly recommend Victoria to anyone who's looking for a kind, compassionate, hard working, knowledgeable and intelligent attorney.

I already had a divorce lawyer, but wanted a second opinion regarding the intricacies of some points that needed clarification. Victoria is extremely sharp, and gave clear, succinct answers to all the questions I had. I just wish I had met Victoria earlier, so that she could have handled my case to begin with.

Victoria did a great job. She explained my rights, and the law, in plain language I could understand. She kept me up-to-date on my case via e-mail. She helped me get a great settlement and avoid the expense of a trial. I would recommend her to my friends and family.
