Bountiful Praise For the MA Alimony Reform Act

The Boston Globe published the perspective of Denise Squillante, former President of the Massachusetts Bar Association, who applauded the fact that alimony modification had changed from just a "one-shot cookie cutter for every case." She labeled the new bill "very fair" and assessed that the bill addresses both the issues of the payers and recievers of alimony.
