We believe that comprehensive legal representation means representing clients to the fullest extent the law will allow while minimizing the impact on personal, social, and work lives. Having worked on high-profile cases in large cities and highly sensitive matters in small rural communities, we work to handle your legal matter with professionalism and a commitment to our core values so you can focus on your life.

We hired Jodie and her team to help us with the sale and purchase of our new home. Due to circumstances out of our control closing for our purchase was nearing the end of day without keys in sight (leading into a long weekend), we were very nervous we wouldn't have a home by end of day. But they worked around the clock and were able to get the keys to our family before everything shut down for the day. We are eternally grateful to Jodie for her calm professionalism, she explained everything and kept us informed, which in turn calmed us down. Thank you Primeau Law!

Their friendly and welcoming staff are always willing to jump on opportunities to get involved and grow their positive impact and support for the people of Deep River and surrounding areas.
