 5/31/19   5     5     5     5     5   The Hennessy Law firm settled my case quickly and with as much ease as possible. I am pleased with this firm's ability to apply Employment Law to each individual case. I certainly recommend this firm to any case, especially for employment claims. RID: 211673
Click to report rating    3/19/19   1     1     1     1     1   Tom Hennessy was hired to help expand my wifes visitation custody agreement with her ex-husband. By the time he was done my wife lost all visitation rights. She was being threatened by the judge with jail time. He was being used by the court to serve us a summons. He does not return emails or phone calls promptly . While representing our family , while standing in front of the judge hearing our case he complained to the judge " that he had to be in another courtroom representing another client." He cursed at us like a thug. He has not paid back money he was over-paid. He is horrible at returning phone calls and emails. He made our case worse. RID: 209558

Click to report rating    7/9/16   5     5     5     5     5   Available to talk to clients when needed, very knowledgable and tenacious. Treats people with respect and fights for the underdog. RID: 171518
Click to report rating    5/23/16   5     5     5     5     5   Tom Hennessy did a fantastic job on my whistleblower case. He's dedicated, knowledgeable, efficient, and put in long hours on my case. He was always available when I needed to talk with him. He has achieved a great result for me on my MSPB case. I recommend him without reservation! RID: 169549
Click to report rating    5/12/16   1     1     1     1     1   He failed to file my case on due date. he didn't give me honest advice from the begging. What happened work ethic as a lawyer and what he is thinking? Why he did this to me? I saw a 5 rating, so this means he is choosing people to whom to work right and hurt others? RID: 169151
Click to report rating    2/9/16   3     1     3     2     1   This lawyer is a jerk. He tells you that he is going to do something for you for a flat fee and then he does do it and never return calls. He works on the cheap and his promises are empty. He never returns calls and gets mad if you object to that. Do not use him for anything. RID: 165117
Click to report rating    10/16/14   5     5     5     5     5   I think that everyone in this firm is outstanding. All of the people in this firm are the most compassionate, caring honest people one could hope to ever know. I love each of them. RID: 144717
Click to report rating    7/23/14   5     5     5     5     5   Mr. Hennessy has been a steady yet fierce Counsel in a case against a major employer in the area. In spite of my fear of the proceedings, his calm and reassuring demeanor has allowed me to go forward with confidence that I was doing the right thing. He knows the law better than any lawyer, he cares about the outcomes for his clients, he is scrupulously honest and can be counted on to meet with his client whenever necessary. I highly recommend him to anyone pursuing legal actions against powerful and less than honest opponents. RID: 140073

Click to report rating    2/22/13   1     1     1     1     1   Tom Hennessy as my council allowed my case to go beyond its statue. Furthermore, this case that already had a finding of guilty by the preceding governing county which was a very important step, had become no longer in force able. RID: 102680
Click to report rating    2/24/12   5     5     5     5     5   I have been working with Mr. Hennessy since 2008. Not only he is patient, caring but most imporantly, he works alot of hours on his cases. He is very devoted to his work. I have been working with lawyers as a paralegal for over 13 years but i can easly say Mr. Hennessy is one in a million. RID: 64596
Click to report rating    2/23/12   5     5     5     5     5   Mr. Hennessy was the driving force that developed a strong legal defense. He articulated the main points and after 14 months, I finally felt safe enough to allow someone else to drive me across the finish line. His legal mastery provided me not only the strength to speak, but I was able to articulate without the emotion and tears that have blinded me in telling my story and to state what actually happened. His precision guided me carefully down an emotional path. There was no crying, no pumping heatbeat. In his hands, I was safe. It was his winning question and answer strategy that I believe was the best course of action. I believe there are moments in our lives in which we face impossible odds and feel the tremendous weight of forces we cannot carry-- I believe Mr. Hennessy is a man you can trust to articulate any legal matter and he can help you in building a strong defense. If you need a lawyer, Mr. Hennessy is the man to hire. I for one, am indebted to him for a lifetime. RID: 64530
Click to report rating    11/2/11   2     1     1     1     1   saw a 5 rating here so I hired him. This was a mistake-- couldn't seem to get anything filed or return calls. I was not amused with his performance. RID: 54329

 7/20/07   5     5     5     5     5   Mr.Hennessy has represented my family and friends in various cases including family, property, probate and employment law. In each case he was excellent. In one particular case, we had retained three lawyers previous to asking Mr. Hennessy to represent us. Over the course of six years, each and every case resulted in a positive court action, only due to this lawyer's work ethic and integrity. Mr. Hennessy proved to be trustworthy and gave clear and honest advice. At times, there were circumstances which could have benefited our case, should we have taken a less honest approach, he would not agree to that course. Mr. Hennessy always abided by the rules of law and acted with respect for the courts which is sadly lacking in some lawyers. I would and have recommended him to friends, co-workers and family with the knowledge that he would honor my reference. He billed far less that his work was worth, always mindful of his clients financial status. RID: 4963
