Until, that is, a disgruntled family member felt the need to lash out at me by making a false and erroneous report to DCF about my family. At first, we didn't think much of the report and thought it would disappear fairly quickly - but when it didn't, we realized we needed help, and fast. We searched online for "Massachusetts Lawyer DCF" and found the Law Office of Kevin Patrick Seaver. After reading several positive reviews, and feeling fearful at how quickly our situation was turning into a nightmare, we decided it was in our best interest to give him a call. As it turns out, the reviews we read were right-on and then some! It was our experience that Attorney Seaver and his team of professionals are the very best there is for fighting DCF and keeping our children safe from harmful intervention in our life. The stress of our situation had gotten out of hand and our fears of the worst had brought our life to a stand-still. We called Attorney Seaver on a Saturday and he responded within 2 hours with support and calm confidence that he could help us get the results we needed. It's hard to explain the relief that we felt just by knowing we had someone on our side who "spoke the language" and was familiar with how to successfully navigate through the mess we had found ourselves in. My husband and I had gotten ourselves so upset, we were having difficulty eating or sleeping. We knew we were innocent of these outrageous claims, yet DCF was moving forward with a 3-month assessment period, somehow considering us to be a concern. It was a humiliating and isolating time in our life. We were horrified by the charges against us but Attorney Seaver knew just what to do to make them go away and help us develop a plan to get us there. It was such a relief to have him fighting on our side. From the time we hired him, until the time our case was successfully closed, Attorney Seaver and his team of professionals were supportive, accessible and quickly responsive whenever we reached out with a question or needed anything related to our case. Day or Night, calls or e-mails were answered quickly, his support was key to our peace-of-mind and the success of our case. We didn't know the full extent of our rights and that was the biggest problem that Attorney Seaver solved for us. He got DCF to send us a copy of the file they had compiled on us so we could see first-hand the full extent of the wrongful claims made about us so we could defend our good name and our family from a place of knowing.
His rate was reasonable, covered the 3-months we would need him for, and he offers flexible payment options to make his services affordable and attainable for families like ours who don't have a lot of money but fully understand the serious nature of a DCF investigation, how long it takes to navigate through it, and how important it is to have legal advice and representation throughout the process. Having him there with us during the DCF home-visits were just what we needed to hold DCF accountable and stop them from twisting their assessment to suit the narrative they were trying to create against us. Doing our research and learning that DCF actually profits from taking children from their families was disturbing and gave us reason to believe that if we hadn't hired legal protection, our family could have suffered tremendously for it.
If I can offer a piece of advice to anyone reading this review who has found themselves in a similar situation as we did it would be this: Don't make the mistake of thinking you can't afford to hire a lawyer- when DCF comes knocking on your door, you can't afford Not to. Attorney Kevin Patrick Seaver is the best there is. We are so grateful we found him and grateful to be able to say our case was successfully closed so we could move on with our life and heal from the trauma of the biggest scare our family has ever experienced.
Thank you Attorney Seaver for helping our family, and for the valuable service you provide to the community. We're forever grateful to you and your team. Sincerely, Andrea and Dennis Duvall read less - 12/04/2018
