Having Jay by my side made all the difference
Going through a divorce is one of the hardest experiences a person can face, and mine was especially contentious and stretched over several exhausting years. Having Jay by my side made all the difference. Jay was kind, compassionate, and always put my best interests first. He was honest with me at every step and made sure I understood what was happening and what to expect. I always felt comfortable talking to him, no matter how stressful things became. Most importantly, I trusted him completely. I felt confident walking into court knowing he was defending me. I am so grateful for his support, guidance, and dedication. I truly could not have asked for a better advocate. :)
Shannon Desmond
Top-notch lawyer with experience and success
Jay and his team are very responsive, caring, and thorough. Jay has represented me more than once and I would definitely hire him again. Jay represented my position very well and, most importantly, treated me with kindness and understanding. He is a top-notch lawyer with a great deal of experience and success! I thank him and his whole team for the excellent representation!

I Strongly Recommend Davis Law Group
My hope is that you never never never never and never need a lawyer and that you never have to step inside a courtroom. But if you ever do, I strongly recommend Davis Law Group. Jake and Shea are the kind of team you want when things get serious. Jake is no nonsense, he is honest, and direct. He’ll tell you when to slow down and when it’s time to stand your ground. Shea is meticulous, organized, and steady. She makes sure everything is prepared properly and that nothing falls through the cracks. (Trust me there is a lot.) She also listens, which matters more than people realize when you’re under pressure. That said, the lawyer and client relationship is a two way street. If you hire them, do your part. Follow their instructions. Be prepared. Don’t sabotage your own case by doing the opposite of what you’re being advised to do. You hire professionals for a reason; trust them if you want the best possible outcome. When I was in the beginning of my own difficult chapter, I prayed and I read these two poems daily and they kept me grounded and I believe they will forever do. “If” by Rudyard Kipling and "Self Pity" by D. H. Lawrence. If you’re facing something that feels overwhelming, read them. They will remind you how to keep your balance when everything feels like it’s collapsing and to keep going. Whatever you’re dealing with, it will not always feel this heavy. And if you do find yourself needing legal help, Davis Law Group will give you a strong shot at getting through it.

Their professionalism and compassion made a difficult time much easier.
Jay Davis has been my family lawyer for many years. Recently, Jay Davis and his associate Elizabeth Coyne handled a family member's divorce with care, patience, and expertise. Their professionalism and compassion made a difficult time much easier. I highly recommend Jay Davis and his firm for anyone seeking a strong divorce attorney.
Jean Boudreau
I appreciated the promptness, honesty, and willingness to point me in the right direction.
Jay responded quickly when I contacted him about my case. Although he determined he wasn’t the right fit for the matter, he took the time to speak with me directly and referred me to an attorney who could assist. I appreciated the promptness, honesty, and willingness to point me in the right direction.
Steven Perry
I cannot recommend Mary Anne at Jay's office enough!
We worked with Mary Anne on the purchase of our home as first-time home buyers. She was extremely easy to work with and was professional every step of the way. She answered our questions confidently and she made our closing day go flawlessly. Jay's secretaries were also great to speak with over the phone and work with. I cannot recommend Mary Anne at Jay's office enough!
Charlotte Chretien
Highly Recommend Jay Davis
Jay Davis and I worked on the sale of a home that was a very complicated and at times contentious transaction. Throughout the entire process, Jay was very responsive, gave sound legal guidance, and was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Jay for anyone in need of legal assistance.
john westlund
He fights hard for his clients
I had the pleasure of working alongside Jay Davis and I can't recommend him highly enough. As a divorce coach, I've seen too many attorneys who either dismiss the emotional + logistical work we do or try to take over completely. Jay was the opposite. He genuinely respected and amplified the foundation we'd built together, understanding that a strong coach-attorney partnership serves the client best. What impressed me most was his collaborative approach. He valued my client's preparation and emotional readiness, then built on that strategically. Jay is both kind and compassionate—he fights hard for his clients while treating everyone with dignity. I can't recommend him enough!
Meghan OMalley
Jake was so helpful and positive
Jake O’Kane was so helpful and positive throughout the whole legal process. He continuously gave me the legal advice that I needed to stay focused. He answered my questions and concerns at any time I reached out to him. Jake stepped up and argued on my behalf and got me what I needed in a short time.

Reasonable time with my children again
Jay Davis has been my attorney for over four years now. Understood my situation and worked with me every step of the way. His assistant Jake O'Kane was passionate about my case and they have been very reasonable with me with my finances. Long story short, I get to spend reasonable time with my children again! Thank you Jay and co!
Donny Hayes
Absolutely great to work with!
Jay Davis and his office are absolutely great to work with! Was very accommodating to my needs and communicated through the entire process. Even after finalizing my divorce, Jay has offered his time to help with legal questions that I have had without even billing me. He is a very hard-working lawyer and compassionate person that you will not regret choosing.
Antonio Hernandez

A Life Saver in My Divorce Case
I unexpectedly became involved in a complicated divorce/child support case and was referred to Attorney Jay Davis. He has truly been a lifesaver! His promptness, professionalism, knowledge, and compassion have greatly exceeded my expectations. I can’t thank the entire Davis Law Group enough for their assistance!
Kerri Anne
I highly recommend Jay Davis Law Group.
I highly recommend Jay Davis Law Group. I had a question on my son’s estate and Jay got back to me very quickly and was very helpful. He put my mind at ease and I’m so grateful for that.
Jeanne Turner
Incredible Team at Davis Law Group
Atty Elizabeth Coyne and the rest of the team at the Davis Law Group have been nothing less than incredible. After moving to MA from out of state, I had to make changes to my parenting plan and update child support orders. There is no actual word to describe my ex-husband/father of my children: narcissistic, psychopathic, mentally unstable, etc. To work with/against him is not for the weak of heart or lack of law knowledge. Elizabeth dealt with my situation with the utmost professionalism and care. She fought for what my children deserve and made sure that I received what was fair and just. I also met with Atty James (Jay) Davis during my experience, and he too was superb and compassionate about my case, which also comforted me knowing I was in good hands at this law firm. I trust Atty Elizabeth Coyne and this law firm with any legal family matter that would ever arise, and I highly recommend them to anyone that needs a family attorney.
Analisa Faro
Highly recommend Davis Law Group!
I had an all-around great experience working with Ryan Medeiros and Davis Law Group. Highly recommend! Ryan was knowledgeable and accessible, and knew what it would take to get the job done. I will definitely be using them again!

Customer Service in Its Highest Form
James (Jay) Davis was extremely helpful with my legal questions centered around a part of the law he does not practice. He immediately reached out to his network and found a perfect attorney for my case! Now that’s customer service in its highest form! Thanks again, Jay!

Truly Above and Beyond
I benefited a lot from a recent consultation with Mary Anne McGonagle. She is very knowledgeable in the area of landlord-tenant law, but what impressed me the most is her ethics. Although it was a free consultation, she still took it very seriously and spent the time to read my files prior to the call. During the session, she made complex legal issues easy to understand, analyzed my case and offered very good advice. She also worked very hard and communicated with me even after her normal work hours. What she did was truly above and beyond my expectation.

Three Generations of Trust
Three generations of my family have trusted Davis Law Group with our legal needs, and they have always done right by us. Since April, I have been working non-stop with Mary Anne McGonagle and Jay Davis to navigate and probate an excruciatingly complicated estate. Both Mary Anne and Jay have gone out of their way numerous times on my behalf and have vigorously protected my interests in the face of some fairly significant headwinds. I could not be more thankful for, and appreciative of, their attention and the care they have demonstrated for my family.
Bryan Lynch
Extremely Professional and Caring
I have used the services of Davis Law Group a number of times during the past 20 years and found them to be an extremely professional and caring law firm. Specifically, I have used them for real estate transactions and for estate planning, wills, and healthcare proxies, with Jay Davis and Mary Anne McGonagle as my primary attorneys. Whereas some law firms use boilerplates and treat clients as transactions, Jay and the firm have cared about my specific needs as a client and customized to those needs. I highly recommend this firm.
Rob Foley
Extremely Helpful and Supportive
Jay and his coworkers were extremely helpful and fought for us as clients. We are so happy with his practice and will most definitely be calling him again if need be!

Jay went out of his way for a stranger
After surprisingly being served by my ex-husband of 12 years for a dramatic change in child support, I desperately searched the internet for attorneys. After reading the main page of the Davis Law Group website on a Sunday, I felt like they may be a good match. I noticed that I could start a chat at that very moment. I wondered if it was legitimate because it wasn't a business day. I was pleasantly surprised by the attendant who forwarded the basics of my case on to Jay who called me shortly thereafter and spoke with me for over 40 minutes. He was very attentive and informative, even though he felt I would be better served by a lawyer in the Court District I was being assigned to. Even knowing he would not be getting my business, which I am disappointed by, he gave me many helpful insights and a connection to an amazing attorney in the district where my case is. To go a step further, after we ended our call, he phoned the recommended attorney to put in a good word for me and followed up with a joint email to the new attorney and me as an introduction along with the detailed notes he had taken during our call. I honestly do not know many people who go out of their way for strangers, especially when they could be handsomely compensated, but Jay did. In a time when the uncertainty and anxiety of the unknown is chewing me up inside, he offered me experiential insight that has informed and prepared me for a variety of outcomes I can begin to process and plan for. There is no doubt in my mind you will be well served by this practice if you are looking for an honest, savvy, and intellectual lawyer. Thank you so much, Jay.
