About Feron Poleon
Feron Poleon LLP works from Sweet Home Road in Amherst and was founded by two lawyers who were previously at Spadafora & Verrastro, Kelly A. Feron as a managing partner there and Katie M. Poleon as a senior associate. Both are named as founding partners on its own roster page.
35 reviews at 4.7. This firm was nearly left out of the ranking altogether: its site answers on its www host and refuses a connection on the bare domain, which read as a firm with no website until the crawler was taught to ask the other host. It explains four stages of a matrimonial case, publishes no structured data, and publishes no fee.
What this firm has earned Every one from a measured value, with the evidence behind it
LFL Verified 2026
Every eligibility gate this firm's state allows us to check has been checked and held: licensure, discipline, entity, website and footprint. Certification additionally requires a score of 70.
No public discipline
None of the 2 named attorneys carries a disciplinary status on the public register: no disbarment, suspension or disciplinary resignation. Those statuses persist, so the check reaches back years, but it would not show a censure or a suspension since lifted.

Feron Poleon does not publish a free consultation on the pages we read. That is not the same as charging for one, and it is worth asking.
