Schwartz & Plante 300 Main Street, Worcester, MA 01608

"I was referred to Schwartz & Plante for representation through a complicated divorce, and what would be the most emotionally challenging year of my life. I thank my lucky stars I landed on Marissa's client list. She is a bulldog. She was fierce, powerful, persistent, and always ready for the next step. She was always available, responding in record time to any and all issues and questions I had. She was never intimidated by the other side, she only came back stronger everytime. Her expertise in her field of practice amazed me. Everytime I personally felt like I couldnt go on, she gave me stability and piece of mind to keep fighting for what I deserved and what was right & legal. Trust me when I say Marissa was my life line. You 100% want her and her team on your side! I am forever grateful for her guidance"

"Marisa Higgins was my lawyer this year and did an excellent job! She is smart and was great to work with. I recommended her to a friend of mine and she has also been very happy with Marisa's legal work. I highly recommend her to my friends and you!"

"I wanted to take a moment to express my admiration and appreciation for Marisa Higgin's work as an attorney. Her exceptional skills and qualities have left a profound impact. Her dedication to achieving positive and results-driven settlements is truly remarkable. Clients can rely on her not only to provide answers but also to advocate for their best interests. Her ethical and honest approach, paired with her extensive knowledge, intelligence, and confidence, instills a sense of trust and reassurance. Her commitment to clients is evident in her ability to put an end to unnecessary conflict and navigate complex situations with ease. She is truly a lifesaver for those facing difficult legal challenges."

"Went in for a hour consult to get legal advice from attorney Marissa Higgins. As soon as I walked into the conference room her whole vibe was off like I did something. Or maybe like she knew me? Divorce and family matters are emotional and require a particular bedside mannor. She is lacking in that department. Immediately I felt the annoyance of my presence as soon as started to talking. Correcting me over every detail of who the judge is and who the judge isn’t. She took my paperwork to look up my previous info and then came back explaining the new judge responsible for my file, and then it went way left. Everything I told her I needed help with was met with an annoyed disgusted face and that wouldn’t hold up in court. I left 24 minutes into the consult as she told me this wasn’t going to work out and left the room. I left in tears yelling she shouldn’t be a lawyer. Originally I was referred to the group for Attorney Nicholas Plante. He was highly recommended by another attorney who fell ill and couldn’t help me anymore. Attorney Plante was booked until January, so I rolled the dice with Marissa and got burned! Don’t waste your time or your mental health with this one!! Merry Christmas Marissa!!"

"Russell was recommended to me through a family friend. I was not disappointed with his services or his associate Alyssa Jankowski’s services. I worked with both of them & together they are an incredible team. Russell is straight forward, well experienced & no-nonsense. Alyssa is incredibly smart, articulate & very compassionate to an otherwise highly emotional situation. In dealing with my difficult custody case, they both helped me accomplish & fight the seemingly impossible battle I was fighting with nothing less then complete professionalism. I would highly, highly recommend both Russell & Alyssa as lawyers."
