Jason did my uncle's estate. It was so complicated the lawyers we went to couldn't figure out what to do. He took our case and was able to get our family the money we deserved.

Jason Stern is knowledgeable, conscientious, courteous, and prompt. Clients are in excellent hands with Jason Stern & Associates. Five stars all the way!

Jason Stern is smart, trustworthy and thorough - exactly what I want when someone is preparing my estate. This ensures that planning is done in the most efficient manner and provides a comforting source of confidence to know things will be handled properly in the future. I would not recommend anyone else and can assure anyone who uses Jason Stern to plan his or her estate to say the same thing.

After my mother died, my sibling initially could not find my mother’s will so I hired Jason Stern to represent my interests. The situation seemed like a roller coaster ride. First there was no will, which meant I stood to get half of a $1.5 million estate. Then my sibling found a 21-year old will which gave my sibling everything, which meant that I would get nothing. Then it turned out that the will was not notarized – making it legally invalid. So it looked like I could get half the estate. Then my sibling’s lawyer found a witness for the old will which made it legally valid, which meant I stood to get nothing once again. During the entire time, Mr. Stern always promptly returned my calls and emails – and was supportive. Sometimes I felt like I was speaking to a friend, rather than an attorney. He assured me that if I were to get nothing, he would contest if years if need be to get justice for me and my children. This would not be an easy task because my sibling’s attorney blatantly told him that he did not want to settle the case because he is a trial lawyer and gets paid by the hour. Mr. Stern fought hard in court to negotiate a fair settlement for me and succeeded in only a few months. Without him, I would not have gotten a penny from my mother’s estate. Not only was I impressed with Mr. Stern as a professional, but also as a person. After we reached a settlement, he encouraged me to mend fences with my sibling because he values family. I am very happy with Mr. Stern’s work and would recommend to anyone. - Reverend Charles

I used these attorneys in the past to plan both my estate as well as my wife's estate. They were friendly, knowledgable and very professional. For anyone in New York looking for attorneys you can trust, look no further.
