Practice Overview

Diligent Boston, Massachusetts Area Lawyer

At the Law Office of Steven A. Ciulla based in Reading, Massachusetts, I work hard to protect my clients' financial well-being. When you need legal advice regarding Social Security disability claims, real estate closings, estate planning and probate, or landlord / tenant law, I can help.

Each of these legal situations involves complex procedures and important decisions. Call 781-944-2260 or contact me online to put my knowledge and experience to work for you.

Social Security Disability Claims

Applying for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) can be daunting. As an attorney with extensive healthcare experience, I will guide you through the complex Social Security system and effectively advocate on your behalf.

Estate Planning

It is easy to believe that estate planning is only important for wealthy individuals and families, but there are documents that everyone should have. These documents ensure that your wishes will be followed in the future:

  • Wills
  • Trusts
  • Durable Powers of Attorney
  • Healthcare Proxy and Living Will

Probate and Estate Administration

When a person passes away, the probate court oversees the distribution of their estate. I have experience guiding clients through estate administration and a variety of other matters, including disputes between beneficiaries.

Real Estate Transactions

Buying or selling a home may be one of the largest transactions you ever undertake. As an attorney experienced in real estate law, my role is to protect your interests and make sure that the other party holds up their end of the bargain.

If you are entering into this kind of business agreement, contact me to protect your rights. I offer these services:

  • Review and Draft Purchase and Sale Agreements
  • Review Condominium Documents
  • Examine Titles
  • Review and Draft Deeds
  • Draft Declaration of Homestead
  • Review Closing and Loan Documents

Landlord / Tenant Disputes

Massachusetts law establishes certain rights and obligations for landlords and tenants. Representing both landlords and tenants whose rights have been violated, I am dedicated to reaching a fair resolution in these legal matters:

  • Eviction (Summary) Process
  • Breach of the State Sanitary Code and the Implied Warranty of Habitability
  • Breach of the Implied Covenant of Quiet Enjoyment
  • The Consumer Protection Statute
  • Breach of Contract
  • Retaliatory Eviction
  • Security Deposit and Last Month's Rent Violations

If you been the victim in any of these situations, you may be entitled to monetary damages and possession of the property.
