Marvin S Silver

Marvin helped my husband and me with our estate planning and establishing our trust. He was always articulate explaining our options and we felt he provided very practical, intelligent guidance on the best course of action for our family. His attention to detail made sure we not only had all the do...cuments we needed but also allowed us to give the appropriate thought into how we wanted our estate to be structured. We really appreciated his tax law expertise as it related to our trust. Despite the pandemic, Marvin made the estate planning and trust formation process enjoyable; we felt we were in good hands throughout the entire process. He and his staff made it safe and easy to meet, and he was very responsive and accommodating to any questions or requests. We would highly recommend Marvin for any estate and trust needs and are grateful that he was recommended to us.

My wife and I were extremely pleased with the representation provided by Attorney Silver. Marvin was most thorough in his explanation of all details of estate planning, thus allowing us to choose the best plan for our purpurses. In particular, Marvin has a unique expertise in tax law that was invalua...ble to us as we sorted through the tax implications of estate planning. Marvin is personable, professional, detail oriented and trustworthy. When the time comes for an update of our estate plan, we will be working again with Marvin.

It what can often be a difficult conversation (estate planning and wills), Marvin was a fantastic resource and made sure we were thinking about things in a thoughtful and complete manner. Further, during this pandemic, he made working with him and his team easy and safe. For instance, since we could ...not do the final signing electronically, he arranged for us to do it in the parking lot of his office - a very creative solution that left us feeling safe but accomplished what we had to. Marvin was exceptionally easy to work with, professional and always looking out for us. We've already recommended him to all of our friends who do not yet have wills!

Marvin is a very knowledgeable attorney who guided my wife and I through the estate planning process. Although it's evident that he has a very thorough knowledge of estate law, he explained the process to us in a way that was easy for us to understand and made himself readily available to answer ques...tions that we had for him. We will definitely employ his assistance for any future needs, and would recommend him to anyone looking for a smooth estate planning process!

In the Spring of 2019, I realized I was in need of a new Estate Plan. The one I had was not aligned well with my current personal and financial profile. Based on the recommendation of a friend, I reached out to Marvin Silver and scheduled an introductory meeting. That meeting took place May 30, 2019 ...with Marvin and myself. The purpose of the meeting was to certainly get to know each other, and to help me identify my goals, my wishes for the creation an Estate Plan. For me, the two most memorable recollections from that first encounter were: 1. I quickly realized Marvin possessed excellent listening skills...there was nothing I said that he passed over in a lightly manner...I was given ample time to develop my thoughts and wishes. 2. Marvin's "professional patience"! That is, I know there were more that a few instances where I asked the same question more than once. He always took the time to explain matters, again patiently. A second meeting took place on July 02, 2019. My wife H. joined us for that meeting. In retrospect I wish I had included H. in the first meeting as, my lack of doing so, forced Marvin to cover areas, again, for H's benefit. After the meeting, H and I both agreed that Marvin was the individual we needed to work with for our estate plan. Highly knowledgeable, professional, all presented in a patient manner! In August 2019, H and I received a draft copy of our Estate Plan which we reviewed. On September 17, 2019 a meeting with Marvin, H and myself took place to review the draft and make final edits. As I recall, the number of edits were 2 or 3, and minor in nature. This, I attribute to the quality of the up front prep work Marvin took H and I through, and again, the manner in which he did so! On October 04, 2019 we reconvened at Marvin's office and signed our new Estate Plan. We are most happy with it. Thank you Marvin for being our knowledgeable and patient guide through the process!
