"I am forever grateful for the team's incredible efforts to make my stepdaughter's dream of having "a normal life" with her dad come true."

I can't say enough positive things about the O'Connor Family Law team. Atty. O'Connor, Atty. Fletcher, Lori, Sean, everyone on the team is amazing. Over the last two years, the team has represented my partner in his custody case, successfully helping him go from partial visitation and paying child support as the non-custodial parent to getting sole custody and getting his daughter out of a horrendous situation. The trial removal case from MA, led by Atty. Fletcher, proved my stepdaughter's best interest was with her father in RI. I am forever grateful for the team's incredible efforts to make my stepdaughter's dream of having "a normal life" with her dad come true. Worth every penny. You are in badass hands if you choose O'Connor Family Law.

"With her desire to gain a deep understanding of my situation and level of expertise, we successfully obtained the outcome I needed to move on with my life."

Attorney Vacchi was crucial in helping me with my case that had been previously dismissed. With her desire to gain a deep understanding of my situation and level of expertise, we successfully obtained the outcome I needed to move on with my life in a healthy way. I can’t thank her enough!

"From the moment I first spoke to Sean I knew I was dealing with a top-notch firm."

From the moment I first spoke to Sean I knew I was dealing with a top-notch firm. He was compassionate, patient, and kind in answering all of my questions. When working with the legal team, Lori and Attorney Fletcher, I was impressed by their attention to detail. I felt the entire team at O'Connor Law worked hard to help me understand my options, review all the facts and didn't just tell me what I want to hear to gain my business. Sean was excellent at clarifying any questions and sending follow-up emails. You aren't just a number to them- they treat their clients with compassion and respect. I would highly recommend anyone in need of legal services to contact O'Connor Law!

"t feels like you’re more than a number... they‘ve listened to my concerns and offered effective strategies."

I live in San Francisco and O’Connor Family Law has been my eyes and ears from the beginning. They‘ve listened to my concerns and offered effective strategies. On top of that, they reach out to ensure we have some connection during the “idle time” of waiting for court. It feels like you’re more than a number. I also wish I was in the Massachusetts area to take some of the classes and opportunities that O’Connor offers such as Self-Defense Night or get to know your lawyer through the meet-ups. I can say it has inspired our family to enroll in self-defense for the kids to ensure their safety.

"Attorney O’Connor is someone you need on your team when you have a complex case, she is not afraid."

Attorney O’Connor was called in my existing case. She was brought up to speed and with my other attorney they came up with a clear and concise strategy. She immediately found issues with the most recent filing, said that this was horribly done and most of all concerned for my children. She stated this not only affects me but ultimately affects my children. With her expertise working with my attorney they complied and presented a solid defense and path forward to restore rights. Attorney O’Connor is a professional and compassionate attorney. She will fight for your children’s rights and yours. Attorney O’Connor is someone you need on your team when you have a complex case, she is not afraid.

"Heather has an amazingly positive attitude and a burning passion to help as many people as she can."

Heather is a gifted attorney who treats every case as if she were fighting for a member of her family. She has an amazing positive attitude and a burning passion to help as many people as she can. I can’t think of a single case she handled that she didn’t fight until the opposing attorney backed down!!!

"They were exceptional to work with and helped my divorce process be as painless as possible."

I truly enjoyed my experience with Heather and the office of O’Connor Family Law. They were exceptional to work with and helped my Divorce process be as painless as possible. Heather had my back and fought for everything my kids and I deserved. I was and am still satisfied with how everything turned out from the Divorce and how O’Connor Family Law and all of the employee’s worked with me. I highly recommend this Law Firm to those I know and don’t know that are going through a Divorce. I know the office handles a lot more than Divorce, but I only mention that because I just have experience from a Divorce that I can share with them.

"With Heather on your side, you cannot do wrong... without her, the outcome could have been so different."

Heather was my attorney during a rough time and without her, the outcome could have been so different. My wife was glad that I found a pit bull of a lawyer who brought DCF to their knees. They were afraid to meet with her because she called out every lie and lack of effort to follow through with what they stated they would do. With Heather on your side, you cannot do wrong.

"I had a tight budget and felt comfortable with their communication about it and the estimate of cost they provided."

I worked with Jolee to form a prenuptial for my fiancee (now wife) and I. I had a tight budget and felt comfortable with their communication about it and the estimate of cost they provided. Jolee asked great questions and seemed to be experienced and knowledgeable. I came with some helpful already hashed out desires for the prenuptial which were refined and then reflected accurately in the final contract. We added a few things that I never would have thought of and clarified others. I will definitely be referring others to Jolee!

"I spoke to a lot of lawyers prior to choosing to work with Sasha. Once I met with her, I felt comfortable that she will fight for me and my 6 years old son and she did."

It was such a pleasure to work with Sasha Khan. Sasha represented me and fought alongside me during my divorce. Sasha was very professional and so caring. ​I spoke to a lot of lawyers prior to choosing to work with Sasha. Once I met with her, I felt comfortable that she will fight for me and my 6 years old son and she did. The entire team at the firm was supportive and easy to work with. I am thankful to Lori for all the work that she did for me as well. Sasha responded to my questions in a timely manner and it was amazing how she remembers every little detail I tell her. The divorce process was draining and I do not have any family here in MA. Having Sasha made a lot of difference for me and for that I am so grateful. I will recommend Sasha to anyone that is looking for someone to be on your corner and to fight with everything they got.

"I would highly recommend her and O’ Connor Family Law for anyone going through a high conflict divorce."

I was represented by Sasha Khan in my divorce and would highly recommend her and O’ Connor Family Law for anyone going through a high conflict divorce. Sasha was always quick to respond to emails and calls, explained everything, and did her best to keep my legal fees as low as possible by always offering a cost-benefit analysis of everything I wanted to fight for.

"They were always quick to respond... I felt they were very helpful in what I was seeking at that time."

I recently reached out to O'Connor Family law for some general divorce information via email. They were always quick to respond and provided the information I was seeking. They were not pressuring me to take them on as my lawyer, and I felt they were very helpful in what I was seeking at that time. If it comes to the point that we need to involve lawyers, we will certainly reach back out to them.

"Heather dropped what she was doing to help me get my health insurance back."

Heather dropped what she was doing to help me get my health insurance back. She is smart, direct and to the point when dealing with the other party. I admire her fierceness and standing up for my rights the way she did. She took a stand for me when I couldn't do it myself. Thank you.

"It is hard to find an attorney who will give you the empathetic hand that she provides."

Attorney O'Connor is extremely knowledgeable and cares about her clients. It is hard to find an attorney who will give you the empathetic hand that she provides. Whenever I have an issue, I call her. I highly recommend her for any family law issues.

"She was incredibly professional, very thorough before the consultation regarding the prior agreement, and researched further after the virtual consultation."

I consulted attorney Fletcher regarding the modification of child support and the father continuing to cover medical expenses for my daughter who is still in college. She was incredibly professional, very thorough before the consultation regarding the prior agreement, and researched further after the virtual consultation. She outlined, in writing, the data according to MA law statutes and case review that would contribute to the anticipated outcome if the case went to court. I felt she let me make the decision as to how I wanted to proceed after being given this information. She was more helpful than my initial divorce lawyer. I now know she will be a wonderful asset if I need her for mediation or trial. I would highly recommend her!

It is an absolute honor to be given the opportunity to work under Heather. She is extremely knowledgeable and a great teacher. I have learned so much just from watching her in the courtroom. She is skillful and always seems to know what to say and when to say it. Her clients have complete confidence in her, as they should, because she goes to extremes to fight for them. Not only is she a great attorney but she is an all-around great person. She genuinely cares and it shows by the relationships she has with her clients.

Heather is a dedicated and caring attorney that will advocate for you in a zealous manner.

"I would refer Heather over and over to anyone going through a divorce or dealing with family court which can be highly sensitive."

I would refer Heather over and over to anyone going through a divorce or dealing with family court which can be highly sensitive. She truly listens and understands your situation and will explain/guide you through the process removing a lot of anxiety that can come along. She helped mediate a difficult custody situation between my ex and I and we all came to a happy agreement- without her it could have been dragged on forever! I can't say enough positive things about Heather- she kicks ass and will stand up for you and your rights.

Ms. O’Connor is all about the details because that’s what wins cases. Heather represented me in my divorce case and from the moment we first talked until the moment we went to court, she did not miss a single detail.

"Heather immediately got the restraining order thrown out and helped me rebuild my relationship with my kids."

When I met Heather my ex had a restraining order on me, which she was manipulating to extort money, and she had my three children alienated from me. I felt helpless. Heather immediately got the restraining order thrown out and helped me rebuild my relationship with my kids. I am now back in my marital with full custody of my kids. Thank you, Heather!

"As a legal representative for child custody and child support, attorney Heather O’Connor did a great job."

As a legal representative for child custody and child support, attorney Heather O’Connor did a great job. From the first day I talked to her and hired her, one could tell she was willing to listen and take into consideration every detail given to her to handle the case in the most proper way. Throughout the whole time working with her she was really attentive and responsive to my questions and concerns and is definitely someone who made sure my money was well and reasonably spent. Because I knew she was doing a great job, I recommended her to my best friend who also agreed and said that the services were great. She has great confidence and always speaks firmly with supporting evidence to prove herself right and legal represent you the best way possible. Don’t miss out on her great service!

"Attorney O’Connor was the best in her representation of me for my child custody case."

Attorney O’Connor was the best in her representation of me for my child custody case. My ex was lying about everything and Attorney O’Connor really fought to make sure the truth came out. She’s a great listener and she makes sure the work she does is important so she’s not wasting money. I’ll definitely go back to her any time I need help with my kids.

"Heather is straight-forward with her work, and made me feel more confident in winning my court case."

When I first met with Heather O’Connor, she was exactly what people explained her as. Heather is straight-forward with her work, and made me feel more confident in winning my court case. She listened and heard through everything I was to say to her, stood in constant contact with me, dealt with my emotions, and was able to get me through everything. Heather always strove for the best and was very meticulous which I greatly admired. She also displayed aggression in court in the way where if another offer was made, she would disagree and stick to her decision. Heather O’Connor knew what was right and being aggressive proved to me that she wanted to win and highly cared for my case. I thank Attorney O’Connor and would most definitely recommend her to anyone in need.

"If you want someone that means what she says call her, seriously call her now, she is what I wish EVERY lawyer was."

I will be totally honest with you when I contacted Heather O’Connor I was worried. You see, I hate lawyers. I have never once met one that I trusted and fired one that I had hired right in the middle of court even.

WOW has my mindset changed. I contacted Heather about a case that is just, really something that belongs on Lifetime movie, you know, the ones about the guy that lives in a different world then everyone else on earth? Anyhow our case was about jurisdiction/improper venue and let me tell you, Heather is AH-MAH-ZING. Not only did she constantly stay in touch with me, deal with my emotional moments, Heather kicked butt and won so our case will be heard in the state it should not Massachusetts. I read someone had said Heather was like a lion in court ready to pounce, that is so true. I really and truly think that when Heather walks into court somewhere in hell Satan shakes with fear. Heather stands up for what is right and won’t blow smoke at you. She will tell you like it is and what you need to do.

Honesty, Integrity and Badassery explains Heather A. O’Connor. If you want someone that means what she says call her, seriously call her now, she is what I wish EVERY lawyer was. Just amazing and I seriously will never be able to thank her enough for honestly saving my kids lives. THANK YOU HEATHER!!!!!!

"She fought for me that day and I could tell she genuinely cared about me and was so sympathetic for what I had gone through in the past.

"

I had a long tough divorce and was completely taken advantage of.

A few years ago, my ex tried to go after me again for more money and while I waited to go in front of the judge, again, with no attorney, I watched this amazing, tiny, woman attorney tear down this old man as attorney and put him in his place. This was Heather O’Connor!

When I got up in front of the judge I said I needed to get an attorney so it was postponed.

I waited in the hall for Heather to become available. She listened to me and said she would take my case.

When we went back to court, she greeted me with a genuine hug.

She fought for me that day and I could tell she genuinely cared about me and was so sympathetic for what I had gone through in the past.

She was successful in helping me and has helped me on a couple other occasions since then. She even cut her fee to help me when I was going through radiation and chemotherapy for throat cancer.

This woman, mother, now friend is the most amazing compassionate, professional attorney I have ever known and I will forever be grateful for her.

I also want to add, every person in her firm I have ever spoken with is so courteous and professional and full of compassion as Heather is.

Thank you all so much for everything you have done for me!

"Heather and her team were supportive and very successful when going against a very large, expensive, and overly aggressive (I'll mannered) Boston law firm."

I had a long, hard, difficult divorce. Heather and her team were supportive and very successful when going against a very large, expensive, and overly aggressive (I'll mannered) Boston law firm. Divorce is not a loss, it is a chance to let your family grow and live a new life with new opportunities. Heather and her team know and practice that every day.

"They followed up and embraced the challenge. I highly recommend Caitlyn and the team!!"

We used this law firm for guardianship for my son, they were fantastic. Very sensitive, responsive, attentive, and professional. We had unusual challenges with our son turning 18 during Covid and the courts being closed. They followed up and embraced the challenge. I highly recommend Caitlyn and the team!!
