Butters Brazilian LLP

Alec offered excellent advice, guidance and made the entire process easy. He and Christina truly care about their clients, and fought hard to ensure that my son received the full benefit of his settlement. They are knowledgeable, helpful and steady, the exact team you want on your case!

My family had the privilege to work with attorney Beth Keeley over the past few years (2024-2026). She was incredibly knowledgeable, professional and empathetic. All interaction I had with the firm as a whole was very positive. I would highly recommend Beth and this firm.

Being a Boston Real Estate broker for over 35 years, concentrating on luxury condominium sales. It is without question that John and Alec are great attorneys—professional, knowledgeable, and very responsive. They were easy to work with and always available when needed. I highly recommend them.

I was given a referral after getting into a motorcycle accident. Everybody was great and always available for questions during the whole process. Helped me deal with my insurance company when it came to my motorcycle and all the medical bills. Thank you again!

I can’t say enough good things about Joseph Coluntino. Joe has handled the majority of my closings on both the buy and sell side, and I’ve also trusted him personally for my own home purchase and sale. As a real estate broker, I work with a lot of attorneys. Joe consistently stands out as exceptional. He is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and solution-oriented, even in high-pressure or complex transactions. He anticipates issues before they become problems, communicates clearly with all parties, and keeps deals moving forward efficiently. Most importantly, he gets the job done and makes the entire process feel smooth and controlled. I recommend Joe without hesitation to buyers, sellers, investors, and fellow agents looking for a top-tier real estate attorney.

Beth Keeley was easy to work with and kept me well informed throughout the entire process. I would recommend her to anyone in need of legal advice. She is a professional on she's job

Attorney Matthew Thompson has the highest regard in my book. He came recommended and did not disappoint. His thoughtful and creative approach was able to win my case outright, which to be honest, was highly unlikely. His thoroughness in his work is noticeable in the amount of hours he puts in. Cost comparison it would’ve cost me way more on an hour-by-hour basis. Staying in contact was easy and he would continuously check in as well. Trying to find the right council is a daunting task, but after all is said and done, I probably wouldn’t have been as satisfied with anybody else. In a bucket of attorneys, I’m pulling out Matt Thompson every time!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Joseph Coluntino from Butters-Brazilian as our attorney for a recent house purchase. He was very helpful and thorough, as he went through all the legalese in the contracts and broke it down into language we could understand. Even the seller's attorney complemented Joe on his organization of the materials and how he made the process easy for everyone. Joe gets my endorsement 100% and would recommend to anyone in need of legal representation for real estate matters.

I had a great experience working with Attorney Joseph Coluntino at Butters Brazilian. Even though my matter wasn’t a “huge” case, he took the time to really listen, understand my concerns, and offer thoughtful guidance to help me navigate a tenant/landlord issue I was dealing with. That level of attention and care is rare these days, and it made all the difference. Customer service like this is exactly why I would recommend Butters Brazilian to anyone in need of legal help, and why I would not hesitate to call them again, specifically Mr. Coluntino, for any future tenant/landlord matters.

Working with Joe on both personal and business real estate transactions has been an exceptional experience. Joe is a wealth of knowledge and goes above and beyond for his clients. The commitment and care he puts into his work is apparent from day one, and more importantly, is consistent throughout the lifecycle of the transaction. I have worked with a number of real estate attorneys but Joe has been the best!

I worked with Joe Coluntino on the sale of our condo in Back Bay and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and a true pleasure to work with. His experience and calm demeanor helped keep stressful situations to a minimum. I highly recommend Joe and his firm to anyone navigating a real estate transaction. He is simply the Best!

Butters Brazilian LLP - especially Attorney Pat Hanley has been nothing short of amazing. I don’t think my words will do justice with the professionalism and dedication I received from Pat and his legal assistant Julie Guerra. I had initial apprehension, but was quickly set at ease by their kindness, attentiveness, and overall work ethic. He listened to all my questions, concerns, and provided the assurance I needed at a very difficult time. I was treated with respect and allowed to have input with every decision. I was never left wondering or waiting for any responses, as Pat is highly communicative and allowed me to be as involved in the process as I wanted to be. Pat and Julie are a dynamic team and all-around wonderful people. They helped give me a voice against a powerful institution and finally be heard.

I had a fantastic experience working with this law firm, especially with attorney Joseph Coluntino. He helped me with the purchase of my home and later provided invaluable support when I started my business by carefully reviewing and explaining my lease agreement. Throughout both processes, Joseph was incredibly kind, patient, and thorough. He made me feel fully supported, answering every question I had—whether it was about a legal term I didn’t understand or a more complex legal issue I needed guidance on. His professionalism and genuine care were clear every step of the way. I highly recommend this firm, and especially Joseph Coluntino, to anyone looking for trustworthy and supportive legal help. You’ll be in great hands!

Worked with Joe C. on the sale of my home. Joe is a true professional. He kept me informed throughout every step of the process and was always readily available to answer any questions I had. I highly recommend Joe to any family, friends, or anyone in need of his services!

Alec Pine is kind and professional. He gave me very helpful suggestions. Thanks!

I am beyond grateful for everything Alec has done for me over the past 3.5 years. From day one, Alec has been not just a highly skilled attorney but also a genuinely kind and compassionate person. Alec is passionate about his work and deeply cares about his clients, which made a significant difference in my experience. My case was pretty complicated, but his hard work and dedication were evident every step of the way. And I truly believe that without his efforts, the positive results we achieved would not have been possible. I feel incredibly blessed to have had Alec representing my case. His commitment to my well-being and success has left a lasting impression on me, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thank you, Alec, for everything!

Alec and the team at Butters Brazillian have been integral in providing expert legal services for us. We'd highly recommend them for anyone looking for professional and responsive legal support at very reasonable rates.
