I'm from MA and am leary of working here due to the AG and the new laws.  Any information would be appreciated.

IF you live here not so bad. If you come from out of state they are harsh with you. You can google to see.

They were so nice to me... why ?

I was a provider in Maine for two years.  Maine is very small so yes, outsiders are recognized right away.  LE is very much on top of things in Maine so be careful.  Rates are lower than they are in CT as well  - cost of living I guess!!  Many people of there frequent agencies more so than independents - that was my experience anyway.

Based on your rants on the boston & general board and your reviews you will be easy pickings for LE where ever you go.
