What Our Clients are Saying



Tom and his staff helped me more than I could have ever asked for! From beginning to end, Tom as well as Brandi and Maria were there to help in any way they could. I could not recommend a better family lawyer. They always got back to me quickly, and always made me feel reassured that I was in good hands. Tom is a wizard, and knows the Massachusetts legal system in and out. He has been doing his job for a long time, and was realistic about every possible outcome and what was most important to me. If you need someone to truly fight for you and your family rights, please call Tom. I am so lucky to have found him due to all of his good reviews, listen to them! I hope this helps others make the right choice. Thanks again to everyone at Taranto Law! ...

Excellent Attorney! I have been working with Tom from beginning to end of my divorce for a total of well over four years. Tom represented me with 100% success through numerous motions, two trials and one appeal. I could write a book about it, but I will keep this short. If I could summarize my thoughts in one sentence I’d say you do not want to be on the other end of the table with Tom. I was very fortunate to choose Tom as my attorney, and he did a great job. Tom never lost focus throughout this long period, and he treated every step of it with the urgency it deserved. I learned throughout this period (from my case and from spending so much time in court) that for an attorney to be successful it is not sufficient for him/her to just be knowledgeable of the law. A successful at...

Set your expectations very high - for that is what you shall get. Knowledgeable of not only the intricacies of divorce law but also of the prevailing tendencies of each of the judges. That is what sets Tom apart. That combined with his thorough attention to every detail, ability to answer any and all questions about our case, ability to speculate on what-if scenarios, and his exemplary responsiveness through the process manifested itself into exactly what you want. A FAIR AND PREDICTABLE OUTCOME WITH NO SURPRISES. Our court appearances before the judge were never ones of worry for me, but more the simple ratification of the outcomes which Attorney Taranto said would happen in prior discussion. This type of post-court exultation is only possible when your attorney knows the st...

Simply, the best! I hired Tom to handle my divorce case from the start. I knew I would be leaving for Afghanistan and did not pursue custody at that time, however, it became clear that was the road we were going to have to go down. Even from Afghanistan, Tom communicated clearly with me, helped me understand each and every step of the process. I worked closely with Tom for over three years. He was patient and understanding, even when my patience and understanding were at an end. His honesty, hard work, knowledge of the law and his keen courtroom skills enabled me to have full custody of my children. My family and I will be forever thankful. -P.A.

Thank you for your referrals. They are making a big difference in our practice.
