Kate L. Constantino

Kate first helped us with estate planning/wills after the birth of our son. Our situation was a little complicated and she gave us good options for our needs and took the time to explain it all to us as well. She has since helped us with other legal matters beyond her core areas with as much professi...onalism and attention to detail. I'm glad that we have Kate taking care if our legal matters.

My husband and I hired Kate to work on our will. Before taking this on, I definitely did not understand how multi-layered this process is, and how important it is to hire someone who is experienced and able to walk you through each step. Kate was masterful at this, and she clearly broke down each i...ssue and helped us make thoughtful and informed decisions. With Kate's caring and patient approach, the legal language in each document became easily comprehensible. The process never felt stressful or rushed. We could've asked for a better experience. Kate's intellect, warmth, and competence was so appreciated. We're so glad we hired her!

My husband and I were referred to Kate when we needed help with estate planning. Our situation was a little complicated, because we wanted to make sure that our young child and my mother would be taken care of in the event of disaster. Kate was incredibly patient in explaining details and laid out ...all of our options in a way that was thorough, but not overwhelming. She's a great listener, and by asking the right questions, she was able to narrow down our options to those that made sense for our complicated needs. We ended up setting up a trust as part of the estate planning process, as well as setting up a living will, power of attorney, etc., and she made the complicated process as easy as possible for us. I didn't expect estate planning to be quite such an emotional process, but it was, and Kate did an excellent job helping us navigate tricky issues with kindness and care. She's great at communicating by email and in person, and the time we spent with her was always really pleasant (not all lawyers are as fun to spend time with!). One reason I think that Kate is great with families is that she has strong family ties herself, so she understands how important it is to get estate planning right! You can tell she truly cares, and that means a lot when your family's future is on the line!

Upon the death of my father (second parental death) we were faced with the overwhelming task of settling an extremely complex estate. Kate and Perry provided outstanding legal and professional advice and consultation throughout the process. They were consistently responsive and always made themselv...es available by telephone, email, or in person. Both Kate and Perry explained the complexities of the estate in detail until all the information was understood completely. I would highly recommend Kate, Perry, and this firm for estate planning and the various other services offered by their firm.
