Faiza Z. Chaudhry

My wife and I went to O'Connell Law to help us create a will and discuss estate plans. It's never a conversation you "want" to have and we were long overdue in getting it done. Faiza was outstanding in listening to our situation, what we were looking to do, and very clearly laying out the options and... how all of the processes around wills and estate plans work. Using the whiteboard, she listed out the different options to give us a much better understanding of what we could do. She did not pressure us into one option over another, just made them very clear and was there to answer any questions. I was really impressed with how quickly she understood our current situation and my wife and I felt very comfortable with her input and guidance. She gave us all the questions we needed to answer and that made the process really smooth and painless. We feel much better now knowing that we have some piece of mind should something happen to one or both of us. Faiza was great to work with and we would recommend her and her firm to anyone for their needs around estate planning.

Faiza made it very easy to do our estate planning while preparing for the birth of our first child. She was a great teacher who helped us understand the documents, and she was very approachable and open to questions. The documents came out exactly as we asked, with great attention to detail. We felt ...confident because she and several colleagues had all reviewed the documents, and then we reviewed them together with Faiza.

My wife and I worked with Faiza and her team earlier this year to plan a will/trust. Coming into this without any legal background, we did not know what to expect. However, after our first meeting we felt incredibly comfortable in our decision to work with her. Faiza took the time to explain all of t...he different options available and answered any questions we had. She was always up front and direct, while also being caring and compassionate. She took the time to get to know us as a family and understand what was important for us in preparing for the future. There is a lot to consider when going through this process, but my wife and left each of our meetings with Faiza knowing that we were in good hands.

My husband and I worked with Faiza before and during the pandemic. Even though many aspects of life came to a halt, Faiza’s guidance on our wills and trust continued through her effective use of technology. She listened to our needs, and provided detailed/comprehensible information for our considerat...ion. We are very pleased with the work done by O’Connell Law.

Faiza has been extremely helpful and patient through the work that we just recently did which included wills, health care proxies and other health care information, working out beneficiary information for all of our assets and placing these into a trust. Not only did she make all of these complicate...d pieces easy to understand, she answered all of our followup questions (even explaining a second time when we didn't get it the first time), laid out a detailed plan for us and gave us guidance about future pieces we could think about. The signing process was professional and well done with today's standards (everything done from your car, sterilized pen for signing which you can keep, everyone had masks on). Thank you to Faiza and your entire team!
