kristines hard work

Attorney Kristine Romano has displayed exceptional professionalism and skill in handling my mother's will. Throughout the entire process, she demonstrated a deep understanding of both the legal intricacies involved and the sensitive nature of estate planning. Her dedication to ensuring my mother's ...wishes were accurately represented and legally binding was evident from our initial consultation to the final signing. One of Attorney Romano's standout qualities is her ability to communicate complex legal concepts in a clear and understandable manner. She patiently walked my mother through each aspect of the will, addressing any questions or concerns with empathy and expertise. This level of transparency instilled a sense of confidence in my mother, reassuring her that her wishes would be upheld precisely as intended. Moreover, Attorney Romano's attention to detail was impeccable. She meticulously drafted the will, leaving no room for ambiguity or misunderstanding. Her thoroughness minimized the potential for future disputes among beneficiaries, providing peace of mind to my mother and our family. Furthermore, Attorney Romano's professionalism and efficiency expedited the entire process without sacrificing quality. She managed deadlines effectively and kept us informed at every step, ensuring a smooth and timely resolution. Overall, Attorney Kristine Romano's outstanding performance in handling my mother's will exceeded our expectations. Her expertise, clear communication, attention to detail, and professionalism were instrumental in crafting a document that accurately reflected my mother's wishes and provided our family with the necessary legal protections. I am immensely grateful for her excellent work and would highly recommend her services to anyone in need of estate planning assistance.

This Attorney in NOT Recommended Buyer Beware

One would rightfully expect both Respect and Professionalism from an Attorney when your Financial Firm and Firm that was partnered with this law office recommends Kristine Romano's practice and sends an you as an elderly couple as a Recommended and Referral Customer. This, However was far from the c...ase and what we experienced. More than 6-Phone calls to Romano's Practice were logged and requesting answers and a brief call back from her. But those Requests were all ignored, disregarded and unanswered? Is this the way anyone would expect to be treated as referral clients and further more as Seniors? Also concerning and ethically questionable is even though they advertise a 'Free Consultation' yet Ms Romano Requires an Up From Fee and payment before a meeting is even scheduled?? Though at a minimum, this rings of many bad acts and violations I may not be able to list here, Beware before Using this firm. Firms Should Honor what they advertise and be of Service to Seniors
