Joe, as someone else said, is "The best of the best" for estate planning purposes and estate matters.
He is extremely busy so sometimes he comes off as being abrupt. My parents used his services, their friends used his services and now I use his services. You will do yourself a big favor using Joe for your estate planning - he loves what he does and he does it so well.

I had a difficult time communicating with Tracey. Specifically, I asked her to "clarify" why the final bill was more than "twice" the estimate she gave. Her response was "I will put down my pen" if you do not pay. No clarification. In fact her response is against the code of ethics for the New York Bar which advocates resolving disputes "amicably". Tracey was not resolving disputes "amicably" in this instance. In fact, she is often less than "amicable", and unprofessional, if she feels challenged.
As well, her office "makes mistakes". For example, I have the same documents notarized "twice" because they "expired". The reason they "expired" is because we were missing a Certificate of Death. I expect Tracey to be on top of required documentation and not come up "short" the last minute.
Bottom line, the transaction took six months because of Tracey's lack of attention to details (such as the missing Certificate of Death). To rub salt on the wound, she charged more than twice the estimate because it took "so long" to close.
Do not recommend.

Portale/Randazzo is "without question" the highest quality criminal defense law firm in Westchester!
On behalf of a family member and close family friend, both former clients of Portale/Randazzo and in each case (non related separate matters) declined and labeled hopeless by other attorney(s) upon their introduction, Richard Portale carefully reviewed the details of each case and graciously accepted the challenges. He then guaranteed a successful outcome, fought for justice and won!
Rich and his team have an extensive knowledge of our laws and rights and they are undoubtedly committed to providing every client with the respect, privacy and attention they deserve.
Most importantly, Richard Portale is a genuinely compassionate and patient person (perhaps a rare quality in this field) making it clear that everyone should be comfortable asking/answering any questions. He and his team were very supportive throughout the process, reassuring doubts and being concerned with everyone's wellbeing, which makes the overall experience a lot less stressful!

After firing my first TWO LAWYERS, I was finally relieved to have found Natalia. I had just escaped an abusive relationship and my ex decided he wanted to sue me for custody of our 1 yr old son.. (Even though he never showed any interest in being a father until I got the courage to leave him) He was incredibly skilled at playing the victim and I needed someone who was able to not only recognize this but to have the ability to present the truth to the judge. From our first consultation, I knew I finally found the right representation with Natalia. She was incredibly intelligent, attentive and perceptive. She helped me to navigate this nightmare with such professionalism and tenacity. After 2 1/2 years of litigation, the judge in fact saw that my ex dragged me to court under “self serving” purposes and awarded me Sole Legal AND Physical custody with permission to relocate out of state. This was a complex case and if not for Natalia’s wisdom and expertise, not to mention compassion, I don’t know where my son and I would be today. Lawyers are a dime a dozen but very few actually CARE about their clients. This is definitely what sets Natalia apart from all the rest. I highly recommend her if you find yourself in a contentious custody and/or divorce case. She will keep you grounded, focused and empowered with knowledge of applicable state laws.

After firing my first TWO LAWYERS, I was finally relieved to have found Natalia. I had just escaped an abusive relationship and my ex decided he wanted to sue me for custody of our 1 yr old son.. (Even though he never showed any interest in being a father until I got the courage to leave him) He was incredibly skilled at playing the victim and I needed someone who was able to not only recognize this but to have the ability to present the truth to the judge. From our first consultation, I knew I finally found the right representation with Natalia. She was incredibly intelligent, attentive and perceptive. She helped me to navigate this nightmare with such professionalism and tenacity. After 2 1/2 years of litigation, the judge in fact saw that my ex dragged me to court under “self serving” purposes and awarded me Sole Legal AND Physical custody with permission to relocate out of state. This was a complex case and if not for Natalia’s wisdom and expertise, not to mention compassion, I don’t know where my son and I would be today. Lawyers are a dime a dozen but very few actually CARE about their clients. This is definitely what sets Natalia apart from all the rest. I highly recommend her if you find yourself in a contentious custody and/or divorce case. She will keep you grounded, focused and empowered with knowledge of applicable state laws.

Amazing. If you are thinking about making a big decision in your life financially, Mr. James J. Rufo is the lawyer to go to. I was ignorant about bankruptcy as a whole and he guided me through this process with everything I needed to know and made me feel it was okay to make this decision. By choosing him and decide to file, it felt like the weight was lifted on my shoulders of financial burden. Thank you James.
