Client reviews
Real Experiences, Real Results
What clients say about working with Rachel, Joe and our team.
“She is like family.”
I can not say enough about Rachel Bachand and her team! I’ve been working with her since 2005 and have always experienced the highest customer service and professionalism. She and Dy are always quick to respond and always very upfront and honest about possible outcomes. I truly feel that she has our best interest at heart, she is like family.
“One of those lawyers that has your back and your trust.”
Joseph Bachand is one of those lawyers that has your back and your trust. I never feel like a bother with my questions and he explains the law at a level that I can comprehend. He has always come through for me at my most stressful times. I would highly recommend his firm to anyone and everyone I know. I am that confident in his ability and knowledge and know my friend or relative would be taken care of by a caring articulate morally ethic lawyer.
“Very honest and trustworthy.”
Such a pleasant experience dealing with this firm. They will not take your case unless your best interest is at hand with this firm. If you require other expert assistance they will redirect you elsewhere. They are not just looking to make money off of you. Very honest and trustworthy. They go above and beyond what is required for their clients and/or future clients.
“I always felt confident that I was in great hands.”
I am so glad and grateful to have had Rachel, who was recommended to me by a family friend, as my attorney. She is excellent at what she does and made a very difficult situation as easy as possible for me. She is hard-working, meticulous, and astute, and she puts everything she has into her job; but she is also kind, empathetic, and a genuine advocate for her clients. She made me feel as if I were her only client, although that was certainly not the case. Her team is responsive, helpful, kind, and efficient. They also ensure to go above and beyond what may be required by the courts, to ensure that no there is no delay in the legal process (thus saving you time, money, and frustration). I also briefly met her husband, Joseph, another attorney, who was just as kind and diligent as Rachel. I always felt confident that I was in great hands with Rachel and her team, and I was never disappointed. Finally, her fees are very affordable. I eagerly recommend this team to anyone who needs an attorney for a family law matter.
“The entire staff is knowledgeable, caring and friendly.”
Mrs. Bachand and her staff have always responded to my inquiries/requests in a timely and accurate manner. The entire staff is knowledgeable, caring and friendly. Never once has there been any delay in services, response or prompt return of a phone call. I have been a client since 2010 and I will continue to recommend Bachand & Bachand!!
“My expectations were exceeded during every interaction.”
My expectations were exceeded during every interaction with the professionals here. The knowledge/expertise from the lawyers as well the responsiveness and attention to detail from the rest of the staff made my experience as painless as possible. I will recommend this firm to all of my friends and family members in need of legal services.
