Michael Monteforte Jr.

Firm: Monteforte Law, P.C.
300 TradeCenter , Woburn , Massachusetts 01801
Practice Areas: Estate Planning, Elder Law, Trusts, Wills & Living Wills
The law firm was established in 2006.  We specialize in Estate Planning, Elder Law, Real Estate, and Business Law.. I grew up in Wakefield, MA, went to Wakefield High from 1990-1994.  I received the Salem State Presidential Scholarship for academics, and graduated Magna Cum Laude from the Salem State Honors Program in 1998 with a degree in criminal justice.  The most important thing that the criminal justice curriculum is that I never wanted to be a criminal lawyer.  I started Suffolk Law School straight out of college, determined to finish in three years, despite having to work nights and weekends.  I went to school with kids whose parents put them up in apartments around the corner from school, while I was either taking the train or fighting the traffic.  When I got out of class, I went to one of my two jobs, either the computer store in Woburn or the small Law Firm in Lynn.. Despite being exhausted most of the time, I graduated Suffolk after three years, in 2001.  I actually took the bar exam and got married all in the same week (bar exam on Wednesday-Thursday, Rehearsal Dinner Friday, and wedding Sunday) and still managed to pass on my first try.  I was sworn in to the Massachusetts Bar in January 2002.. My wife and I moved to Wilmington in 2003, and we have two children in the Wilmington school system.. I stayed on as an Associate with the Lynn firm until 2006, when I went out on my own, and opened the Law Office of Michael Monteforte Jr. in September 2006.  The firm started out as a General practice, handling pretty much whatever came in the door, but over the years, I started to concentrate on the specific legal fields that I found to be fulfilling and challenging.  I began to take continuing education classes that specialized in estate planning and elder law, and hones my expertise in those fields.  The firm underwent a name change incorporated in 2017, now called Monteforte Law P.C.  The firm specializes in Estate Planning, Elder Law, Real Estate, and Business.  For any other areas of law, we can provide referrals, but we are accepting new cases only in those fields of law.

I have been practicing bankruptcy law exclusively since 1996 and have handled literally thousands of bankruptcy cases and every one sucessfully.  I always offer a free, non-rushed consultation and fully explain all of your options.  We offer a convenient payment plan which suits your individual needs and always keep our fees low and reasonable.  From start to finish you receive personal and individualized attention.  Over the years we have become the attorneys that other lawyers call first when they need bankruptcy advice and we are often called upon to "fix" bankruptcies for other attorneys.

Attorney Patricia Bloom-McDonald loves going to work each and every day because she looks forward to interacting with people.  She enjoys working hard to help retired individual(s) get a full spectrum of choices and receive all that the community has to offer.. When you hear "good" comments about lawyers you more commonly hear that they are detail-oriented, well-educated, and tough.  Rarely do you hear additional words of descriptions such as concerned, warm, compassionate, and caring. You would, however, if you heard comments about Patricia Bloom-McDonald. Her clients have commended her for being unlike any lawyer they have ever known.. When meeting with Patricia for the first time, her clients say it is a bit like sitting down with a good friend, or member of their family. Patricia makes herself available to really listen to what her clients are concerned about.  She takes the opportunity to really get to know what matters to her clients the most: what their long and short-term goals are, and what their hopes for the future may be. Only when Patricia fully understands her client's particular situation and aspirations will she then design a plan and course of action that helps to accomplish her client's goals. She will always make sure that she explains to her clients all their options in clear, easy to understand language, without all the confusing legal terminology, and she continuously allows her clients to ask as many questions as they need.. While every individual client is unique, Patricia Bloom-McDonald and her staff strive to serve each and every client utilizing the following philosophy:
