Ilian took a difficult situation and made it easier to comprehend and calm my thoughts. Trying to do this alone or with someone who doesn’t have compassion would be a scary dangerous road. He broke things down so they were easy to comprehend. Yes, he had to give me the truth as he talked me off the ledge (so to speak). There is happiness after this process. I’m definitely there and quicker than I thought possible.

In a nutshell, I do not recommend Giammichele Law. Steven Giammichele and his staff are nice and friendly, but their work is haphazard. The number of drafts we had to review due to their sloppiness was time-consuming, frustrating, disappointing, and concerning. I spent dozens upon dozens of hours reviewing, making corrections, emailing, and speaking in person, trying to get the drafts close to what we asked for and Steven recommended. Mind you, the first several set of drafts were 56 pages for each trust, not including all the other document drafts that coincide with each trust. After the second round of drafts, I advised Steven it was taking such a long time for me to read almost 200 pages of language that is foreign to me, and have to track and explain all the mistakes. He decided to find a new template with fewer pages. Regardless if they are 40 pages or 56 pages each, plus the other document drafts, it takes a lot of time to read and make note of the mistakes or questions, especially when you’re not a lawyer or an estate planner. That's why I hired Steven, to explain, advise and help us through the process. Unfortunately, we felt stuck with Giammichele Law because we paid thousands of dollars for the three trusts upfront and in full, that was a red flag we regret. We received many drafts that had countless mistakes and Steven would blame the mistakes on us changing our minds or miscommunication during our meetings. I would show him our submitted paperwork and our notes, and I would compare them to the drafts, and he still wouldn’t take ownership of the mistakes. It’s now been over eight months and our trusts are not up to par. We asked Steven to please fix them after we were advised by his notary that we still could sign the paperwork, and he would fix the areas that are not correct and go over the language we didn’t understand. Steven offered 30 minutes of his time and if we needed more time, he required a retainer because we signed the drafts, hence he is no longer required to revise them. I would not use Giammichele Law if you want your trust to be created in a timely, accurate, and professional manner, keeping your beneficiary’s best interest at heart. I didn't want to leave a negative review, but the way Steven has ignored our attempt to rectify the situation, I feel he is not taking the severity of his ways. I hope he will do the right thing.

My wife and I had an extremely positive experience working with Steve and his staff. They made the process easy and were able to clearly explain each step, without making it confusing. Start to finish they were extremely responsive, professional, and personable and I will definitely be referring my friends and family!

Very knowledgeable and professional willing to answer any questions. Would highly recommend this law office.

Highly recommended. Working with Ilian was a pleasure. He is a sincere professional who is responsive, highly knowledgeable, and truly compassionate. I am so very grateful for his excellent work.

Nice people

There is no one that will work harder on your case or is more knowledgeable in his field than Mr. Giammichele. As a fellow attorney I have referred countless cases to Mr. Giammichele and he has done an excellent job!

Steven Giammichele is King. He’s smart, thorough, thoughtful, logical, effective, moral, ethical and has high integrity. He knows when to push and went to retreat. He can easily think outside the box and inside the law. I would absolutely work with him again and I hope I never have to. He’s THE BEST.

The Law Offices of Steven Giammichele are absolutely the amazing. Ilian Alchehayed is in my opinion the best lawyer I have ever dealt with or worked with. He is super caring and wants what is best for you and also fair. He handled my child support case with ease and I felt very comfortable working with him. He even talked to my Ex and handled that situation for me. I highly highly recommend him and I have already sent other friends his way.

The Law Offices of Steven Giammichele are absolutely the best. Ilian Alchehayed my lawyer at the firm and assistant Katrina Lopez are handling my divorce. They are impeccable. They are communicative, responsive, and professional. They charge a reasonable fee. Unfortunately my wife is difficult in this process. Iliana and Katrina make me feel comfortable that I can be at ease knowing my divorce will get resolved. I highly recommend this Law Firm!
