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.

If you're searching for an honest and thorough law firm, look no further. I found myself in a nightmare situation where my previous estate lawyer took advantage of my emotional state, milking me for a year or more. Unfortunately, some people can be dishonest and even cruel.
I had the privilege of working with Pauline Yeung, who was incredible. She knew how to get things done swiftly and effectively. With an estate case that had been dragging on for years, Pauline took the reins and brought it to a close within a matter of months.
I highly recommend!

What is the main quality you want your lawyer to have? The answer of course is knowledge and experience. I retained Grimaldi & Yeung to help me with a Medicaid Application. It was a very involved process, but the lawyers at Grimaldi & Yeung handled the details flawlessly. Their knowledge and experience resulted in the approval of the application expeditiously. They were courteous and friendly throughout the process. I highly recommend this law firm.

My husband and I recently moved to New York State and needed a lawyer to create a living trust and to redo our wills. We feel so fortunate that we were referred to Marie Corliss. Working with Marie and her staff at the Corliss Law Group was a very positive experience. We appreciated Marie's expertise, guidance, and thoughtfulness during every step of the process. She took the time to understand our needs and wishes, to explain the legal terminology and the laws, and to make sure the documents were customized to meet our goals. Throughout the process of creating these important documents, we knew that Marie had our wishes and our best interests in mind. My husband and I highly recommend Marie Corliss and her staff at the Corliss Law Group.

My mom is a pediatrician and all her life treated patients. She knows nothing about business continuation or estate planning and when she needed a lawyer who cared about her clients as much as she herself did my friend attorney recommended Inna Fershteyn’w law office. Inna was amazing from the get go. She prepared family trust for my mom and helped her protect her assets and do business continuation planning. As a practicing attorney I have since referred clients to Inna for estate planning and asset protection as well and got glowing reviews from everyone as she does care about each and every one she helped. I have to honestly say Law office of Inna Fershteyn is the best business planning law office right now in New York.

I had the privilege of working with Johnmack as my lawyer, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the very beginning, he was aggressive in ensuring that those responsible for what happened to me were held fully accountable. He didn't back down and fought tirelessly on my behalf.
What truly sets Johnmack apart, though, is his sensitivity and understanding of my circumstances. He was incredibly patient with me, especially during the toughest moments when I felt overwhelmed and ready to give up. His unwavering support and encouragement were invaluable, and I always felt like I had someone in my corner who genuinely cared.
If you need a lawyer who is not only a fierce advocate but also deeply compassionate and supportive, look no further than Johnmack. I am beyond grateful for everything he has done for me, and I HIGHLY recommend his services.

Tracey Daniels and Seamus McDonough helped us in the sale of a 1-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn. They were both knowledgeable and great communicators and the cost for their services was fair. I highly recommend Daniels O'Connell PC.

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.

What a Trusts Lawyer Can Do for You
A trusts lawyer specializes in creating and managing trusts, which are legal entities that allow individuals to transfer assets to beneficiaries while maintaining control over how and when those assets are distributed. Trusts are used for estate planning, asset protection, tax planning, and ensuring the financial security of loved ones. Trusts lawyers help clients choose the right type of trust for their needs, draft trust documents, and advise on the administration and management of trusts.
Whether you're planning to pass on your assets to your heirs, protect your wealth from creditors, or provide for a disabled family member, a trusts lawyer can help you establish a trust that meets your financial and personal goals.
When Should I Hire a Trusts Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a trusts lawyer in various situations, particularly when you're planning for the future distribution of your assets or protecting your wealth. Common reasons to hire a trusts lawyer include:
- Estate planning: If you want to ensure that your assets are distributed according to your wishes, a lawyer can help you create a revocable or irrevocable trust to avoid probate and provide for your heirs.
- Asset protection: If you want to protect your assets from creditors, lawsuits, or potential future liabilities, a lawyer can help you establish a trust to shield your wealth.
- Special needs planning: If you have a disabled family member, a lawyer can create a special needs trust to provide for their care without affecting their eligibility for government benefits.
- Tax planning: If you're looking to minimize estate taxes or manage tax liabilities, a lawyer can help you create tax-advantageous trusts, such as a credit shelter trust or charitable remainder trust.
- Charitable giving: If you want to leave a legacy through charitable donations, a lawyer can help you set up a charitable trust to ensure your donations are managed according to your wishes.
- Business succession planning: If you own a business and want to ensure a smooth transition of ownership, a lawyer can help you establish a trust to pass the business on to your heirs or chosen successors.
Hiring a trusts lawyer early in the estate planning process ensures that your assets are protected and your wishes are clearly documented, reducing the chances of disputes after your death.
What Does a Trusts Lawyer Do?
A trusts lawyer provides a variety of legal services to help individuals create, manage, and administer trusts. Their responsibilities often include:

- Choosing the right type of trust: Assisting clients in selecting the most appropriate type of trust for their needs, whether it's a revocable trust, irrevocable trust, living trust, or special needs trust.
- Trust administration: Guiding trustees through their legal responsibilities, including managing assets, making distributions to beneficiaries, and filing tax returns.
- Modifying or terminating trusts: Helping modify or terminate trusts if circumstances change, such as changes in tax laws, family situations, or personal preferences.
- Protecting beneficiaries' interests: Structuring trusts to protect the interests of beneficiaries, especially if there are concerns about financial management, disability, or dependency issues.
- Minimizing estate taxes: Assisting clients in structuring their trusts to minimize or avoid estate taxes, ensuring more of the estate passes to beneficiaries.

How Are Trusts Lawyers Paid?
Trusts lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the trust and the type of legal work involved. Common payment methods include:
- Flat fee: For drafting basic trusts, such as revocable living trusts or special needs trusts, many lawyers charge a flat fee. This can range from $1,000 to $5,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the trust.
- Hourly rate: For more complex trust planning, ongoing trust administration, or resolving disputes, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates typically range from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Retainer: For long-term trust administration or complex estate planning cases, some lawyers may require a retainer, an upfront payment that covers ongoing services.
- Contingency fee (rare): In rare cases, particularly in disputes involving the administration of a trust, lawyers may work on a contingency fee basis, getting paid only if they successfully recover funds or resolve a legal dispute in your favor.
Always discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand the total cost of services.
How Much Does a Trusts Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a trusts lawyer depends on the complexity of the trust, the lawyer’s experience, and the fee structure. General cost estimates include:
- Basic trust creation: For simple trusts, such as revocable living trusts, fees may range from $1,000 to $3,000.
- Complex trust creation: For sophisticated estate plans involving multiple trusts, tax planning strategies, or special needs considerations, legal fees may range from $5,000 to $10,000 or more.
- Trust administration: If you are serving as a trustee and need ongoing legal advice, hourly rates for trust administration can range from $150 to $500 or more.
- Dispute resolution: Costs for litigation or mediation in trust disputes may range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.
Be sure to get a detailed cost estimate from your lawyer during the consultation to ensure the services fit within your budget.
