The Calm in the Storm

My case was complicated...a decades-long marriage, multiple trusts and assets, multiple inter-state jurisdictions, spousal mental illness (diagnosed but untreated), spouse's extended family dysfunction, risks of firearms, etc. In the midst of my life-storm, Jeff Soilson returned my initial call to hi...s firm at the request of his partner whose case load could not accommodate my timing. Jeff immediately asked me a few key questions, listened thoughtfully, made certain I felt that my college-aged daughter and I were "safe," and then offered clear recommendations for next steps. From the first phone conversation, I knew there was a reason "he" was the one to take my case. And so began my journey through a life-changing chapter in my life - one that was guided by the skill, knowledge, perspective, strategic thinking, patience, and client-care/kindness of Jeff Soilson. During the course of many months, Jeff and his colleague Hether Cahill were "a sense of calm in my storm." In the beginning, I found it interesting that Jeff's retainer contract specifically referenced his engagement as a “Personal Advisor.” I now fully understand all that his word choice/description meant. Jeff was always there to guide me through the unforeseen twists and turns of my journey not only from a legal standpoint, but also by helping me understand and defuse the emotional aspect of my circumstances, so that I could face the challenges logically and professionally with a foundation of "reason" rather than "emotion." I would definitely recommend Attorney Jeffrey Soilson for his holistic approach to sorting through a complex situation, developing/partnering/packaging a long-term strategic game-plan, adapting to unpredictable changes from the opposition, and successfully completing his engagement.
