Estate Planning 33%

No one likes to contemplate death or the possibility of years of illness or disability. The thoughtful creation of an estate plan, when you can effectively express your desires regarding the distribution of your assets, care of your minor children, and health care wishes, is the best way to control your future and protect your family.

33%
Probate 33%

Probate is the process of identifying and transferring assets owned by a person who has died (the "decedent") to the individuals or entities (the "devisees") legally entitled to receive the assets, pursuant to instructions in the decedent's Will, after any taxes and legally enforceable debts and expenses against the decedent's estate have been paid. If the decedent failed to leave behind a Will, those legally entitledto inherit the assets are determined by Mass. inheritance laws.

33%
Corporate and Incorporation 17%

Starting a business is an exciting undertaking but it is filled with many traps for the unwary. How your business is set up and structured from the beginning will dictate whether your personal assets are protected from any business liabilities and the tax implications of any business income and expenses. Given these consequences, making the correct decision from the beginning is critical.

17%
Mediation 17%

When ending a marriage, we acknowledge the position you are in, the decisions that you face, and the changes that lie ahead. Dissolving a marriage via mediation can be an amicable and cost effective solution.

Real estate purchase with Jason's help

We first hired Jason to help get us set up with our estate planning. He did such a great job that he was the first person/lawyer we thought of when we started the process of purchasing our new home! As anyone can attest - purchasing a home can be very daunting & stressful, Jason was very patient wi...th us and answered/helped us with all our questions. Jason guided us in the best way to go about purchasing a new home. Jason's suggestions in protecting our interests have been wonderful & very much appreciated. Jason will be ther first lawyer we go to with any and all other legal matters!

"I have worked with hundreds of Attorney's in my 30+ years as a Lawyer in Massachusetts. When it comes to Estate Planning, Family Law issues and Mediation, Jason Carrozza is among the best of the best. His attention to detail is exemplary and his genuine desire to help and support his Clients is admirable. To further my endorsement, although I am capable of creating and executing my own estate plan, I am in the process of hiring Jason and his Partner Amy Antonellis to update my estate plan and to advise me on some business related matters. I unequivocally endorse this Attorney."

Estate planning lawyer | Dec 17

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known and worked with Attorney Carrozza for a number of years and during that time I have had the ability to refer a number of clients to him in his core areas of practice. Without exception, Jason has demonstrated the utmost in both legal ability and client service typically getting great results for the client. In several cases I have had the opportunity to speak with some of the clients after Attorney Carrozza had handled a matter for them and they spoke of him in only the highest terms. They were also quite happy with me for having referred them to him, as his good work and skill got results and made not only him look good but made me look good for making the connection. Not only would I highly recommend Attorney Jason Carrozza to others, but I would use (and have used) him myself if I were in the need of legal representation beyond the scope of my practice."
