Google Review by Dennis Walsh ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Jeff and his staff were very professional and quite efficient. Jennifer and Mara treated us very well they all together made estate planning a painless experience.
Google Review by Gregory LaPorta ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had a great experience working with Jennifer, Jeff and Mara! We set up our trust with them and it was much easier than I thought the process would be, mostly because of the help and availability of the team I just mentioned. They were all extremely attentive to our needs, answered all of our questions (which we had a lot of) quickly, and were great in explaining a lot of the nuances involved with setting up a trust. What could be a complex and confusing thing to complete was made easy and honestly enjoyable by Jeff, Jennifer and Mara. Would highly recommend to anyone going through the estate planning process!
