Flaherty Legal Group, LLC

I was very happy with the outcome of my divorce. I felt like Sandi was a life saver. She is smart, kind and helpful. I couldn't have gotten through it without her. I will be forever grateful. Debra Kenny

Sandi was receptive and willing to hear me. She made me feel as though my story was valid and she helped through a very difficult decision and process. Nuni and, I apologize, but I forgot your name, the receptionist were always available for my questions. They are a wonderful team and group of people. Thank you.

Don’t waste time or money, unless that’s all you’re looking to achieve. If you want constant inaccurate information, and your lawyer making decisions behind your back without your consent, Misty is the right lawyer for you! In 1 year time Misty has successfully taken $12k from me and i have nothing to show for it. But what really did it for me, was New Britain clerks office making me aware that my own lawyer was consenting to continuances behind my back, adding in the delay of my case for well over 6 months, just to take my money and for no other reason. Despite my repeated frustrations about the continuations, Misty did all she could to make sure she was going to continue depleting my retainer so i can keep restoring the balance, with no end in sight for a very, very simple custody case. For the amount she charges, she is highly unintelligent, I have numerous emails with false information, yet i was still charged… a hefty amount at that. I’m not sure how she can charge so much for things she doesn’t even know. I can’t say Misty did anything really for me. All i have to show for what i spent is a drafted agreement mostly put together by family relations, not even her. She was up against a criminal lawyer with no family law experience, and in my eyes, Misty failed miserably. Less than 24 hours after firing Misty, i was able to resolve half my case ON MY OWN. I’m in the process of reporting her to the BAR association, do to her back room decisions made without my consent. Misty is your typical lawyer. Charges top dollar, but provides little to no results. In addition to them being legally required to release all of my case documents to me, they’re trying everything they can to not hand over my case documents. Again, this shows the integrity of this law firm, and that even they can’t follow their own legal obligations.

This Law firm is awesome! Best experience I’ve ever had. I met Pam and her team back in 2013 and she and her legal group has helped me throughout my divorce over the years with different issues. They are so professional and easy to work with. They are exceptional at their jobs and will do everything to get the best outcome. I highly recommend their services.

Very thankful to Pam, who my attorney suggested be GAL in my case. This was a very tough time for all of us but she was able to keep my children safe.

I would highly recommend the Flaherty Legal Group for any family law needs. I was extremely impressed with Attorney Girolamo. She represented me in my divorce and was patient, knowledgeable and kind. I was the most impressed with how prepared she was for each of my hearings and trial. She found, fought for and won me resources that I wasn’t aware even existed. Attorney Girolamo was instrumental in obtaining the best possible outcome for me and my children. I enthusiastically recommend her and her entire firm to anyone who is in need of representation.

Sandi Girolamo had to come into my life at an extremely difficult time and I was so fortunate to have her in my corner. Family court is terrifying and when your goal is to keep your very young children safe, Sandi is one of the BEST people to help ensure that happens. She and her team communicate with you whenever you need it, explain things thoroughly, and make you feel more comfortable and confident in what you are dealing with. The court system is overwhelming and yet Sandi made it bearable. Flaherty legal group consults with each other and have each other’s backs. Sandi and her team are very well respected within the court system and court visits were always quick, efficient, and very effective. Sandi played a huge role in helping my kids to have a mostly normal childhood during a very turmoil time. They have grown to be wonderful humans that are in college preparing to do great things in the world. Things could’ve been so different if I didn't choose to have Sandi and her team working for me. They made sure my kids were safe from Alcoholism and Domestic Violence within my family. I am forever thankful to them for their impactful service they gave my family.

Pam Magnano was my mediation review counsel and provided me with guidance and support over the six months I was going through mediation with my ex-husband. She was incredibly understanding, patient and helpful as I had many questions and was unfamiliar with the process of divorce and mediation. I felt she was rationale and looked at all angles of the situation, providing me with honest and transparent feedback. She was timely and responsive and truly empathetic. I had a few somewhat complex dynamics and she was able to navigate them with me in a way that provided clarity and resolution. I very much enjoyed working with Pam during this extremely difficult time and would recommend her time and time again to anyone needing representation. In addition to her professionalism and experience, she is also just a very nice, kind person and made me feel at ease when I needed it the most. Thank you so much, Pam!

We have worked with Sandi Girolamo for 28 months ins sole custody and not only did we get the full sole legal and physical custody of my stepdaughter awarded but we have been able to count on Sandi being there every step of the way. Sandi has been instrumental in this journey being from answering our questions to just being there holding our hand thru this extremely difficult journey. I would highly recommend Sandi as a lawyer and her firm to work with. Sandi has gone the extra mile working outside of normal office hours and being there when we needed her

Divorce is an extremely emotional time that is filled with pitfalls, and on top of that, it is usually not something that someone can be familiar with having not been through it before. Having someone to coach you, explain what is happening, and support you is critical to successfully navigating the process. Pam Magnano was my go to at Flaherty Legal Group when my wife chose to begin the divorce process. I was completely unprepared for what was about to occur, and Pam was recommended to me as someone that could explain things and guide me through what was to come. She listened to my concerns, explained what would be happening, and helped me to identify what my goals for the outcome were. Luckily for me, my ex-wife and I were agreed that we wanted the process to be fair and equitable for both of us. Pam coached me through the documentation process, advised me on the decisions that needed to be made, and worked with us to insure that all of our court filings reflected our desires. The end result was an amicable and streamlined divorce, without ANY excess expenditures on the process. All work was documented, billing was accurate, and there was no evidence of any "make work" that could cause unnecessary costs to appear. I would highly recommend Flaherty Legal Group, and especially Pam Magnano, for legal work that is within their realm of expertise.

I called Attorney Magnano based on a friend’s recommendation and what I read about her online. I could not be more relieved that I did. She and her staff were on top of things from day 1. The communication was great and I am happy with the outcome. Thank you Pam and Flaherty Legal Group!

I partnered with Jenna from the firm, I couldn’t be more happy or express more thanks in the attentiveness she displayed throughout my journey. Knowledgeable on her own along with great resources to double back to for even more advice. Their fairness and curtesy on charges and pricing deserves great recognition as well. I would highly recommend Jenna and the firm in its entirety.. thank guys.

Sandi and her practice were recommended to me by a friend. They were excellent, heard and accounted for my concerns, provided clear communication, and achieved fair results.

Really, the truth about Jim and Pam, money Greedy deceptive terrible attorneys looking for a quick dollar! Forget family values They will build you up to be angry and spend every bit of equity you have including your pension for their own personal gain. They are totally unethical and it’s been proven! Didn’t even want to give them a star but it’s below one they should be prosecuted,For their unethical tactics trust me you won’t win with this gruesome twosome

Great !

My experience with the Flaherty Legal Group, and Sandi Girolamo was nothing short of outstanding. I was going through a potentially contentious divorce that could have proven very stressful. Instead, with Sandi's guidance, professionalism, and respect in the legal community, the divorce was straightforward, fair, and ended on time. I recommend this group and Sandi highly. She cares about families, fairness, keeping everyone mentally healthy in a stressful situation, represents you strongly, and just wants to get the job done such that everyone can move forward.
