“ Steve and Renee were great to work with! Very professional and realistic. Gave no false expectations or predictions. They communicated everything to us in a timely manner. We will definitely use them again if ever needed! Thank you, Steve and your team! “

“ For my family law case, Steve Smith had a very strong presence and was dominant in the courtroom. The manner in which he carries out cases is something you see in the movies. He was really animated and passionate about my case. His military background is a big asset, and he really helped me out. I would highly recommend him. “

“ We hired Leah M. Baldacci for a family law case and she was so extremely helpful and got me through my case. She’s very professional and takes the time to listen to her clients. She’s a wonderful advocate and a fantastic attorney. If you’re looking for a great attorney, I recommend Leah. Thank you so much for your legal help. “

“ I’ve hired Steve for two cases, and I am very pleased with my decision. He fights for his clients and strives for the best outcome. His entire staff is pleasant and wonderful to work with. “

Amber

“ I hired Steve for a parental rights case involving my 2 children. He was aggressive but supportive and did not file unnecessary motions that wasted my retainer. I was terrified of court, but with his experience, I felt at ease. The process was explained, and his staff was great as well. I would hire him again if needed and received a great outcome with an order that works for me and my children. “

Our Second Anniversary

December 15, 2022

Our Second Anniversary

Although our team of attorneys is vastly experienced, we have only been working together as a firm for two years. Today, we invite you to join us in celebrating Our 2 Year Anniversary! Over the past two years, we have welcomed great people to our team, we have won challenging cases, and we have and will continue to stand up for you.

While life can be unpredictable, we have stayed consistent in our services and providing our clients with a high-caliber, vigorous defense, always aimed at achieving successful results to preserve their freedom. We have over 30 years of combined experience that we utilize for you as our client. We use aggressive methods, paired with conservative beliefs, to better serve you.

We have been fortunate enough to have a successful start to our firm, achieving some great things in just two years. We are thankful to have a team focused on doing and being the best. Some highlights from our past year include:

Attorney Steve Smith successfully defended a wrongfully terminated university professor.
After her first five weeks of employment, Cassie, our Civil Legal Assistant, was able to attend and assist with her first in-person court case, which lasted 2 weeks.
Attorney Carl Woock has remained undefeated in Canine Custody cases.
Attorney Leah Baldacci won the Law Court Appeal Beedle v. Beedle.
Stacy was promoted from a Legal Assistant to the Criminal Legal Assistant of Steve Smith and Ian L’Heureux.
Meredith joined our team as our first Marketing Director.
Attorneys Steve Smith and Carl Woock won a six-digit attachment for an elderly couple.
Attorney Ian L’Heureux successfully defended a client against a domestic violence allegation.
Attorney Carl Woock obtained a $700,000 lien for an elderly couple against fraudulent property developers.

Our mission has always been centered on our clients. Some have trusted us with referrals, others have “just” been supportive. Either way, you have played a key role in our success.

With the end of every year comes a time of reflection and hope for what is upcoming. We are thrilled to start our third year as a firm and to see what we are able to accomplish next. We are grateful for our team, and for the future. We are grateful for you.

Previous Case Outcomes

CHILD CUSTODY

Result: Client Granted Custody

Our firm successfully obtained custody for our client who had worries for his children’s safety when they were with their mother. Our lawyers were successful in moving the children away from the mother’s unsafe environment and permanently into the father’s care.

RELOCATION

Result: Blocked Relocation

We represented a father whose ex-spouse was attempting to move out of state with their two children to slightly advance in her professional career. The father’s close relationship with his children would have been disrupted.

ALIMONY

Result: Enforced Alimony, Attorney’s Fees & Court Costs

The ex-husband of our client was not complying with the provisions of their marital agreement and was not paying alimony. Our attorneys were able to get a court order to enforce the alimony award as well as have the ex-spouse cover the attorney fees and court costs.

What Our Clients Say
