Experienced and Knowledgeable Attorney

David H. Lee is an exceptional family law attorney with a remarkable 50+ years of experience. His deep understanding of family law, particularly in complex alimony and divorce cases, was evident throughout my case. He provided clear, strategic advice and was always well-prepared. David's recognition as 'Lawyer of the Year' for family law is well-deserved. He handled my contested divorce with sensitivity and professionalism, ensuring the best possible outcome. The only minor downside was occasionally slow response times, but his expertise and dedication made up for it. I highly recommend David Lee for anyone navigating family law matters in Boston.
