Ive been taken care of my parents ever since i returned from california over 5 years ago. My sister and her husband were in charge of the estate. Now that my parents passed we looked into the money. Needless to say I am forever thankful to Jason in that before I found him the three other lawyers said the outcome looked bleak. Now i can assure you I am safe and monetarily comfortable despite this pandemic.

Would recommend this office to anyone forced to navigate through an estate issue Jason, always responded to our calls, in a timely manner and was also very easy to talk to. This office did everything they could for our family.

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.

We never realized how good it was to have a great attorney on your side until we needed one. Oh boy did we need one after our parents passed. Our mother made the mistake of making our sister in charge of her estate. Almost a year after she passed our sister still refused to tell us anything about the inheritance. Fortunately we found our way to Mr. Stern and he and his partner Matt went right to work on the situation. Once these attorneys dug in they would not stop until we received every penny owed. More importantly Mr. Stern gave this family the closure we needed to move on with our lives. Great attorneys who care.

Very lucky to find such great attorneys to handle our estate. My family is entirely out of state and we needed an experienced attorney to handle our NY kinship case. Jason Stern and Matthew Hunter treated us with nothing but respect and patience, warmly explaining each step of the proceeding to us in terms we understood. Our kinship case was a bit more difficult than most because we had lost touch with members of the family years ago. Jason and Matt did not disappoint and did not give up until they successfully recovered the estate for us. Definitely attorneys you can trust and turn to with your case.

Jason and his partner Matthew took on my challenging and at times very difficult case. They stayed the course and because they are beyond excellent lawyers, I get to start the next chapter of my life very soon! They never made me feel dumb and explained the process. Jason made sure to update me every step of the way! I'm glad I researched properly and found them! Call them and make an appointment!!!!! It might just change your life!

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

Jason W. Stern is excellent in the services he renders. He is a very nice person and does his work efficiently. I recommend him highly.

Jason Stern is a highly respected estate attorney and I recommend him!

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.

Knowledgeable and trustworthy estate attorney. He worked hard on our family's estate until it was settled. He was professional, easily accessible, and did not take any money upfront until the estate was closed. I highly recommend Jason Stern.

I was recently diagnosed with cancer... my son has special needs and I was unsure how to setup a way for him to receive my life's earnings when I was gone. I thankfully am in remission and will be here for many more years for my son. Jason was able to setup a payment infrastructure and will to make sure he's taken care of in case something ever were to happen to me.
