We spoke for over half an hour about possible business bankruptcy. He asked A LOT of questions to guide me correctly. Sincerity and forthrightness come to mind. Invited follow-up calls on the issue even if I didn't need his services. A delight to talk with.

We were referred to Emiliee through a mutual friend who is also an attorney. We are very happy that we found Emilee. She is just great - smart, capable and compassionate. We worked with Emilee on estate planning for two generations of our family. Her advice and guidance has been extremely helpful and we felt supported throughout the process. I can't say enough about her innate ability to communicate kindly and frankly to everyone in our family.

I hired Emily because she stood out on the service. Two trustees denied me any and all benefit of the trust. I was billed over $1,700 for a one-hour conversation with the current trustee. I received copies of 15 bank statements. My purpose hiring herwas to have the trust dissolved. She spent more time trying sell auditing services than she did trying to have the trust dissolved. At 63 in poor health with cancer. I requested her to have fund managers move the money out of high risk profile considering covid-19 presented unprecedented issues in the market. She was quick to email at $360 an hour and accomplished little to nothing.

I live some 1500 miles away from Emilee Lawson Hatch. Never met her in person. Discover her on the internet. Her profile stood out from the others. I needed a probate lawyer in New York state to represent me. And that she did. I talked to her on the phone two times. The rest of the times we mainly communicated via emails. There were times when I would email her two three times a day. Her spontaneously response amazed me each and every time. If I had a question after five o’clock CST my time, and sent her an email, the next morning I had my answer waiting on me. She made me feel like I was her only client. Her firm, Bousquet Holstein is very fortunate in having a lawyer of her excellent caliber representing their firm.

Responded quickly to my call & answered all my questions-so grateful!

Didn't have a pleasant experience with them. Although my case went through, however, it was very painful. I don't recommend them to anyone for anything. There are lots of better, and local law firms out there that they will actually care about you. They ask for premium money but they don't provide premium service. In one instance, although I reminded them of our deadline multiple times, they postponed my applications to the point that they had to expedite it, btw, they not only didn't apologize but made a funny respond to my complain and most probably billed my company for all those expedite fees anyway. If they are the last lawyers in town, I still will not hire them.

Ms. Hatch provided solid legal work on our case. When we presented options, she would intently listen to our what we had to say. And she would provide scenarios as to how things could play ou in Court. This all based on her last work experience. Ms. Hatch has a working knowledge of Estate work. Whenever a hiccup occurred Ms. Hatch was able to put us back on track. At one point we were contemplating a Partition & our case was handed over to another attorney who specializes in such cases. However, we lost traction & felt put on the back burner. We asked for Ms. Hatch back and she settled the Estate within our proposed timeline. We highly recommend Ms. Lawson-Hatch to anyone struggling through Estate/ Probate Cases.

When our Estate Lawyer retired, we solicited recommendations and researched Estate/Trust lawyers in the Syracuse area. Emiliee K. Lawson Hatch’s profile stood out among her peers, and upon talking to and eventually meeting her, we found Emilee personable, professional and competent in Estate Law. She was a good listener and an organized detail person. She welcomed questions and explained complex legal issues, in layman’s terms. When it became apparent that our original trusts needed major revision, we were able to work back and forth by email and occasional phone conversations to complete the process. As our estate planning progressed, Emilee demonstrated an excellent grasp of the overall goals we were trying to achieve in our multi-generational estate, as well as understanding the complex family dynamics and specific needs of individuals. Emilee’s “no nonsense professionalism” inspired confidence that she would stand firm should the situation require it. She is also gifted in interacting with individuals of limited capacity... making them feel comfortable, really listening, and explaining “legalese” in a non-intimidating way. It was a pleasure to work with Emilee and we feel confident that she will continue to be helpful to our family through current and end of life issues.

My wife and I recently engaged Emilee to update our will and other estate planning documents. We were delighted with experience. Everything went very smoothly and we are confident that we found the best person to handle this matter. We will certainly request her services again if the need arises. Thanks Emilee.

Very knowledgeable, getting right to the point and reasonably priced.
