How and when did the company get started? Valanzola Law Group opened its doors in 2015 with an office in Mansfield and has since expanded to Boston and Hingham. What products or services do you offer? We specialize in residential and commercial real estate conveyancing, lender representation, leasing, condominium law, zoning and land use and development, business law, probate and estate planning. What’s the one thing your business is known for, over your competitors and why? We consider our firm to be "boutique", in that we provide direct communication and support to our clients throughout any given transaction. It is common for firms to shift responsibility from one lawyer or paralegal to the next. A client may hire one attorney but end up communicating primarily with a paralegal at the firm. At Valanzola Law Group, the attorney you hire is the attorney you will work with until your matter is completed. We pride ourselves on this streamline approach which enables us to effectively meet the demands of any real estate transaction. Tell us an interesting and fun tidbit about your business. Attorney Matthew A. Valanzola is the managing attorney of Valanzola Law Group. He has over 15 years of residential and commercial real estate experience, 8 years of which he worked as Owners’ Representative for the largest commercial real estate development company in the Country. His extensive experience in real estate managing all phases of the development process affords him a unique opportunity to understand clients’ goals and needs. Why did you decide to become involved with the Chamber? The firm opened an office in Hingham in 2021 after Matthew Valanzola and his wife, Sarah Belanger (also an attorney at the firm) relocated from Boston to the South Shore. They now reside in beautiful Scituate, MA with their 3-year old son, Theo.

 ROCKLAND, MA AND ALEXANDRIA, VA, ISSUED AUGUST 31, 2022… The South Shore Chamber of Commerce has been named one of three Communications Excellence Best In Show winners by ACCE, the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives. ACCE is the leading national association for chambers of commerce and economic development organizations representing over 1,600 members, and more than 9,000 industry professionals. The South Shore Chamber of Commerce initially won the 2022 Award for Communication Excellence for “Overall Best Campaign” for their Hello! South Shore campaign. Hello! South Shore is a regional destination marketing campaign that was created and designed to assist the regional recovery from the economic impact of COVID-19. After receiving a Regional Pilot Project Grant through the Massachusetts Office of Business Development, the Chamber partnered with local towns, businesses, and organizations to create a series of excursions that ran throughout the summer. The excursions were designed to spotlight arts, culture, history, outdoors, food, shops, recreation, holiday events, farmers’ markets, and neighborhoods across the South Shore. The campaign was the first to formally promote the South Shore region. It’s companion website www.hellosouthshore.com encouraged 600,000+ residents to think of “local” as more than their own neighborhood or town and promoted broader exploration. This was accomplished through an exciting and robust marketing campaign—launched in less than six weeks— spotlighting discovery and the many excursions across the 25 cities and towns the chamber represents. The Chamber enlisted local business members for campaign creation including logo and creative development as well as media placement. The campaign launch spanned three months during the summer of 2021 with 125 unique communications produced and delivered through email, radio, social media, billboard, magazine, and other forms of media. The website, www.hellowsouthshore.com, is still very much the hub for all the excursions and places to visit in the region. As a result of this groundbreaking campaign for the South Shore Chamber, Hello! South Shore reached nearly a million impressions in just 13 weeks. The project also provided countless local businesses, organizations, and events the much-needed support they deserve as they recover from operational losses due to the pandemic. The Best In Show Award was announced live at the ACCE Annual Convention held July 27 in Indianapolis. The Hello! South Shore campaign competed against major metro chambers and regional chambers in 3 other award categories including Digital Media, Website, Print & Electronic Publications. “Effective communications and storytelling are crucial to supporting a chamber’s mission and showcasing its impact,” said ACCE President & CEO Sheree Anne Kelly. “The South Shore Chamber of Commerce’s innovative efforts to help drive engagement and make a difference in the region it serves are inspiring and very deserving of this recognition.” “Looking ahead and beyond recovery, the Hello! South Shore project is directly linked to our larger economic and community development goals as part of the South Shore 2030 Plan,” explained Peter Forman, president & CEO of the 121-year-old chamber. “If you’re thinking about a campaign to brand your region, think local. Marketing the assets of your community to outsiders falls flat if the local businesses and residents don’t recognize and value those assets first.” A panel of communications and marketing professionals from ten U.S.-based chambers of commerce evaluated entries submitted for this year’s competition. Entries were organized by category — based on the chamber’s annual revenue. Judges presented 13 Awards of Excellence and three Best in Show awards.
