Madeline G. Blanchette

Firm: Foster and Blanchette
4 Open Square Way, Suite 124 , Holyoke , Massachusetts 01040
Practice Areas: Child Abuse, Guardianship, Family, Domestic Violence, Appeals
The success of my practice comes from my ardent philosophy of providing clients, regardless of income, with the most elite, aggressive representation that always includes meticulous listening, diligent legal research, thorough motion practice, advanced legal writing, skilled negotiating, and comprehensive hearing and trial representation. Prior to becoming an attorney, I was a social worker (M.S.W.) for 20 years, making me uniquely qualified to advocate for children and adults with complex legal, cultural, economic, and clinical needs who are facing the overwhelming power of the state in the Department of Children and Family. In Care and Protection cases, I provide comprehensive legal services and rarely advise clients to waive their rights at the 72- hour hearing, a critical legal juncture where I have had excellent success in quickly reuniting children and parents.
