"I was new to Rhode Island and had no idea what to do"
I found myself in the horrible circumstance of an unexpected/unplanned divorce amidst the worst time of my life. I was new to Rhode Island and had no idea what to do, or who to call, who was good, or who wasn't. All I knew was that I needed to find someone to help me navigate the worst days of my life, trusting them with my most private moments and fragile existence. A co-worker had recommended Assalone Lombardi, LLC, so I, nervously, placed the call. From the very first communication with the admin staff, onward, it was the most wonderful, professional, kind, empathetic, safe space giving, helpful experience I could have ever hoped for. The entire staff was fantastic. I never once felt judged or alone, instead I felt cared for, represented, supported, and confident that I had the best team I could possibly ask for. I was lucky enough to be given to the care of Attorney and Managing Partner, Victoria Lombardi. I am forever blown away. Ms. Lombardi is fierce, charismatic, brilliant, kind, strong, understanding, and will fight the fight of her life for you, as if she were your own sister, but with a level of unparalleled professionalism and grace. Should I ever find myself in another unfortunate life situation or circumstance that requires an attorney, she will always and forever be my obvious choice. I trust her implicitly with my most sacred life issues and I would never go anywhere else. If you are in need of an attorney, do yourself a favor... call Assalone Lombardi, LLC, and if you are so lucky as to get Victoria Lombardi, it will have been the best decision you have ever made, I guarantee it. She is phenomenal. I am so grateful to the entire team and thank them all for the way in which they cared for me in my darkest moments. Grateful.
