Thomas Joseph Marks

Tom has been my personal attorney for almost five years. He helped my wife and I with our wills, powers of attorney, and setting up multiple trusts to prepare our estate for our children. When my wife passed away this year he helped me with the process of settling her financial affairs, re-writing ...the trusts, and just being a compassionate human being to me. I am fortunate to have retained his services and recommend him to anyone.

My wife and I consulted with Tom Marks in order to establish our wills, and we were provided with much deeper and more thorough service than we expected. As a result of working with Tom, we now have wills, power of attorney statements, health care proxy statements, and trusts for our estate. Tom pr...ovided great advice on tax planning and organizing our estate. He answered questions quickly, provided us with up-to-date documentation throughout the process, and was very easy to work with during our meetings. Tom is knowledgeable, thorough, patient, and personable. I recommend him to anyone pursuing an estate plan.

My wife Theresa and I hired Tom to re-do our entire Estate Package. Way above the cost ( which was very reasonable) was the manner by which Tom works. We had the following completed for both of us: Wills Personal Trusts Real Estate Trust Health Care Proxies Power of Attorneys Tom made ...it his mission to ensure we understood every aspect of each document. Extremely organized and direct but the comfort-level we felt during the entire process was the most important. We would highly recommend Tom if you are considering options for Estate Planning.

Tom just completed our will, set up trusts and worked with my wife and I in getting our estate plan finalized and explaining our options. It was a pleasure working with Tom. He explained things very thoroughly and made us feel very comfortable immediately. We were charged a very reasonable flat fee, ...so we never felt that the clock was always ticking. We had 3 sit down meetings with Tom and each time my wife and I were totally impressed by his competence, professionalism and his caring demeanor. He was very thorough and would HIGHLY recommend him for anyone looking to have these services done. I have worked with alot of professionals and can safely say that Tom was a stand out.

A review should be written when everything is fresh in mind but here it is, still on my mind to do, even a few years later. I've reread all of the reviews and agree with so many of them, I'm finding it difficult not to repeat. A good friend recommended Tom when we had quite a lot of things going o...n requiring us to update our wills, health care proxy's, POA's and understand how trusts work. My wife and I met Tom on a "get to know each other" consult and found Tom to be a good listener, easy to understand, honest and caring. Most importantly, Tom was up to speed with the ever-changing rules of estate planning needs which including trusts, wills, health care proxy and power of attorney. We took care of everything painlessly in 2-3 meetings. As a side note, we asked Tom to review our elderly mother's recently updated trust and discovered that the recent updates did not protect her assets as expected. Tom's knowledge in this field is current and extremely important, especially with the ever-changing laws. We feel very good about recommending Tom Marks as your attorney. He has your best interests in mind.
