Beyond-belief legal service - thank you, John! I contacted John Larochelle about an emergency Family Court matter concerning my young child. I was astounded at John’s dedication to my crisis. I sent an email to him at 10:00 pm. I received John’s thorough response at 2:00 am. Not being able to sleep because of this stressful emergency, I replied back to him at 4:20 am. My phone rang at 5:15 am. It was John, who took 40 minutes to explain our best course of action, what I needed to do to help him achieve my goal, and what he would be doing. The rest of the day, John answered all of my texts and phone calls and did everything he said he would do. He worked on my case until after 7:00 pm. This morning at 4:15 am, John was up early to work on getting my urgent matter to a judge before 9:00 am. I can’t imagine the attorneys who work for presidents and princes could exceed the attention and service John gave to solving my crisis.

In 2005 I hired John Larochelle to change custody to me from my ex-wife. I knew that this would be almost impossible as I lived in Texas and my Ex-wife and daughters ages 3 and 4 lived in Rhode Island. Mr. Larochelle argued my case in family court and won! My Ex-wife attorney then argued this case with the Rhode Island Supreme court which put a hold on me bringing my daughters back to Texas on a technicality as the presiding judge did not stipulate the reason of the changed custody in the court documents. Mr. Larochelle argued my case again with a new trial and was granted full custody and I brought them back to Texas. 15 yrs. later I am writing this review because without Mr. Larochelle my daughters’ lives would be certainly different. I am proud to say my oldest has enlisted in the USAF and younger daughter has been accepted to the University of Texas to study neurology

It is tremendously gratifying to have had a meaningful impact on your children's lives. Thank you for your kind words. "In nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense." - W. Churchill

For years, John Larochelle has been an A+ lawyer for me – most recently for divorce. He promptly returned every email and telephone call with a thorough answer. John is a first-class lawyer who knows how to negotiate and when to press an advantage. He helped me to get the results I wanted. I hope I don’t need to use his services again, but if I do, I know I have a gladiator in the legal arena fighting for me.

After talking with multiple attorneys I found John. John actually listened, took notes, and never sugar coated anything. John always set clear expectations and potential issues that could arise and how to navigate them. After a custody trial John delivered the desired outcome. John is professional, kind hearted, but also knows when it’s time to play ball. Highly recommend!

 
Response from John Larochelle
I appreciate you sharing your experience with me and the good result we were able to achieve after a contentious trial.

My family required an attorney to represent our son in a serious case. We had no experience with these types of matters and were very worried about the process and outcome. I found attorney Larochelle through a web search. I believe that finding him was the best thing that could have happened aside from the outcome of the case. Right from the initial call to attorney Larochelle I felt more comfort and informed as to possible outcomes for our case. Prior to retaining him, my wife wanted to meet with him because she had some very specific questions. At the end of that meeting she too felt very comfortable with all the answers to her questions. Throughout the process attorney Larochelle kept us informed and was quick to answer calls and emails whenever we had questions. We had a positive outcome in our case and even if it had not ended the way it did I would recommend attorney Larochelle to anyone who may need his services.

I was represented by John in 2020. During this time the service and resulting outcome far exceeded my expectations. Communication was always timely, clear, and concise. When obstacles were faced he acted on my behalf without hesitation and was able to achieve a positive outcome. For these reasons I am confident recommending John Larochelle if you are in need of legal representation.

Restraining Orders

Hired Attorney John Larochelle

John’s stellar representation was able to immediately resolve an unfair restraining order issued against me, resulting in the case being quickly resolved and dismissed. John’s consideration of every angle, and his constant, confident, calm support of my case, not only made a traumatic and emotional ordeal manageable, but it also achieved quick results. John’s broad knowledge and intimate expertise in handling multiple types of cases in both RI and MA, as well as his meticulous attention to detail was, I believe, key to our case’s quick dismissal. I cannot recommend John highly enough for his integrity, knowledge, experience, thoroughness, and kindness. There are many lawyers out there, but I needed the best of the best. Fortunately, I chose wisely, and I hope that my review will help others choose John and be able to receive the same level of representation.

 
Response from John Larochelle
I am grateful for you taking the to share your experience of my comprehensive preparation for a successful defense of a restraining order case. It was satisfying to win your case and have the restraining order dismissed after the first hearing.

The best of the best ! You ain’t regret ! Been in a custody battle for a year now . And when I came in contact with John in June! It was a victory ! He took his time with my case did everything in his power to win! And we did ! The father of my child continuously files unnecessary motions to win this case but with John He was unsuccessful! We win the case ! And we are on the look out for any types of inaccurate motions.. which I know John will target again like He has ... if you are looking for a great lawyer in the line of legal matters or custody battles ! I can assure that He is the one ! He knows his job .. and he works with you every step of the way !

 
Response from John Larochelle
Together, we made sure we were prepared to win every time we walked into the courtroom. Yesterday, at the third court hearing, the judge gave you everything we fought for. It was satisfying to achieve total victory in a hard-fought case.
