Annabel has been our elder care lawyer for years. She is extremely helpful and always available to answer any and all questions. She is a compassionate wonderful woman.

I consulted with Ms. Bazante at the recommendation of a friend who had contact with her in a number of organizations. I was also happy to find an attorney who was local. My initial request was for an updated will and suggestions for estate planning. The final result was a comprehensive overhaul of many aspects of the task, which included six completed documents (including the will) and some ancillary services. She is also easily accessible and I was always able to get an immediate response or a clear indication of how and when she would be available.

Ms Bazante was very thorough in helping us finish our will. Her guidance and explanation of each step really made the process totally painless!! Highly recommend her!

As an attorney who has practiced in elder law in the past, it was extremely important to me who I would trust with my own Will and other end of life documents. Annabel came highly recommended and lived up to her reviews. She spent a lot of time carefully advising me and was patient and compassionate with me when I needed extra time to make important decisions. I never felt pushed, only supported. Would highly recommend this attorney for any elder law or estate planning needs.

Annabelle Bazante is very intelligent. She does her due diligence and explains things very well. She really does care.

My husband and I, both in our 70's had nervously put off making our wills until now. Annabel Bazante guided us through the whole process with great wisdom and clarity and now we feel much more secure about the future.

I consulted with Annabel regarding legal advice for my father. Annabel returned my email and was extremely generous with her time during our consultation. Annabel assessed the situation and was able to refer me to her assoicate specializing in international divorce law. I highly recommend Annabel and will not hesistate to reach out to her for future legal concerns.

Annabel was a tremendous help through the entire process with my mom. She helped setup the Power of Attorney, coming to my mother's house with witness because she was unable to travel. She also processed the Will, went to Probate Court, got the Letters of Testamentary and on very short notice was able to get me refreshed letters that were needed for the House Closing a day later. She was great at explaining the entire process to me, and giving me all the options in a way that a layman can understand. All costs and timeframes were exactly what she had said. Very happy I chose to go with her, and would highly recommend.

When my sister suddenly passed away I needed someone to help me close out her estate and help me conclude over two years of estate issues that I was saddled with. I was put in touch with Annabel who was professional and efficient. She preformed per my direction and never looked to run up hours of work. Her advise on the matters at hand was spot on. I am only sorry that I did not engage her sooner to help me close out this estate for my family. I would not hesitate to recommend her services or use her in the future.

We are so pleased wth Annabels vast fund of knowledge and good advice while figuring out our complicated situation. We will always recommend her and consider her not only our friend but our attorney.

I and my son are very pleased with the documents she prepared and advice and explanations of the process that she has provided for us. I now have a living trust, Will, and Power of Attorney. In addition I know have an updated Living Will and Health Care Proxy. It is such a good feeling to have someone so knowledgeable guide us through document process.

I live in Manhattan, so I would have never thought to look for an attorney outside the city, but, Annabel came highly recommended. I needed to find an attorney to draw-up an Estate Plan for me. I was not disappointed. From the first contact I made with Annabel, then and thereafter, I always could count on both a quick and clear reply. Distance was not an issue in working with Annabel. She came to meet me in Manhattan for our initial conversation. During that meeting, I was impressed with her patience in listening to my concerns and thoroughness in collecting all the important facts. Unlike other attorneys that I have worked with, Annabel was not formulaic in her counsel. She carefully weighed all the pros and cons of what I was asking for; brainstormed various alternatives and arrived at solutions that included what I wanted and not a boiler plate plan that others are more quick to present. After numerous calls, exchanges of e-mails, reading and correcting draft documents, Annabel came back to Manhattan for the final signing of my documents. Throughout the whole process of setting-up my Estate Plan, Annabel was a professional who considered my wishes and needs and incorporated them into a first rate Plan. It’s without any hesitation that I recommend Annabel Bazante.
