The Massachusetts Family Law Group focuses solely on divorce and family law matters. Founded by Attorney Irwin M. Pollack, both the firm and the attorneys have earned a reputation for standing up to those who want to intimidate its clients.  

In addition to our offices in Plymouth, the firm is both established and active in Norwood, Woburn, Worcester and Springfield.

Attorney Pollack and his attorneys of the Massachusetts Family Law Group provide the personalized attention necessary for each client to resolve legal matters relating to paternity, child custody, spousal support and property division. With a particularly watchful eye on finances, the firm’s lawyers have become well known for imputing income from an underemployed spouse, business valuation, tax issues and divorce estate planning.

Not only does the firm handle new matters, but quite often clients come to us to modify or terminate child support or alimony orders.  Orders and judgments less than three years old as of January 1, 2009 shall not be modified without proof of a material and substantial change in circumstances - such as a promotion or loss of a job.  Additionally, alimony can be modified or terminated upon showing a significant change for either party. 
 
A divorced parent himself, Attorney Pollack has also earned a reputation for representing the underdog in his tireless pursuit for justice representing fathers’ and grandparents’ rights, parental relocation cases, same-sex divorces and zealous defense against the Department of Revenue. 

It doesn’t matter where you live – Plymouth, Barnstable, Bristol, Dukes or Nantucket County – our divorce team handles everything from uncontested, simple divorces to complex divorce matters. We often consult with forensic accountants, private investigators, and guardians ad litem to help resolve issues between parties before going to trial. When appropriate, we also work with a network of mediators to assist our clients in coming to amicable agreements when possible.

Over the years, our attorneys have found that the best long-term outcomes for clients are achieved through negotiation rather than hoping that Barnstable Probate and Family Court First Justice Scandurra, Plymouth Probate and Family Court First Justice Catherine P. Sabatis or any of the other associate or circuit justices in Bristol, Plymouth or on the Cape see things your way.  When necessary, however, we will zealously advocate on your behalf by taking your case to court with extensive pre-trial preparation and expert testimony, but more often our experience and insight will reveal a faster and less expensive way to reach the same objective.  

The lawyers at The Massachusetts Family Law Group have an understanding of the issues of divorce court and will guide you through the first steps of divorce, the decisions about whether or not you should separate, who should move out of the home, how to hire a domestic relations lawyer or issues relating to changing your attorney. 

We provide prospective clients with weekend appointments and, during the work week, our first appointments begin at 5 o’clock in the morning if necessary.   

If you have questions about the divorce process, children and divorce or even money issues, we have the answers. We can also help you understand the first 30 days of divorce, how to change your divorce agreement, dealing with your spouse’s attorney or the basic big picture of divorce in Massachusetts. 

Our current clients will tell you that going through a divorce is different with our firm. Many of our clients remain close to us for months and years after their divorce or family law matter is over. Our voicemail boxes are full of praise and our mailboxes are overrun with holiday cards every year. We love our work and it shows in the results we can obtain for clients. We look forward to serving you.
