KEEP CALM she'll make sure things CARRY ON !

Lisa Roche has been an invaluable key in assisting my Uncle in his estate plans. My Aunt passed just six days after placing my Uncle in a nursing facility. I unknowingly was chosen to help with my Uncles affairs in the event of her death. Without delay, Lisa met with us and discussed many of our c...oncerns. We felt relaxed, guided and very confident as she outlined what was to come. Lisa has completed estate property sales for us with complete ease as well as overseen financial investments. Her numerous dealings with our sensitive issues were handled with the utmost discretion and privacy. My experience with Lisa Roche has been refreshing. I'm impressed with her time and effort expended on us. Without her dedication and expertise I don't know what we would have done.

All's well that ends well because she is great!!

Client Review: I hired Attorney Lisa E. Roche to handle my parents' estate. It was a very difficult situation. My father had passed and my mother was left in a state of dementia with no appointed PR and died subsequently in the same year with no will. What was most difficult was the presence of disc...ord within the family, no one would agree. Lisa's expertise in Estate Law brought a satisfying conclusion in an expeditious manner. She also had the network to liquidate two properties in a more than timely fashion in a depressed real estate market. Her level of acumen and professionalism are unparalleled. Her court room finesse is impressive. There is no other lawyer I would choose to represent me than Attorney Lisa E. Roche. -

Highest Regard for Values

As a former client and a business owner who recommends Ms. Roche to any customer in need of legal advice, I have a tremendous amount of professional experience with Lisa. Our family utilized her services for a highly sensitive issue that was handled with the utmost personal care, confidence and rega...rd for what is best for the future. Many of my senior clients utilize Lisa for their estate needs, and advice regarding sensitive family issues. Ms. Roche is highly professional, knowledgeable and extremely responsive to time sensitive issues. Ms. Roche can be very kind and considerate to a client, yet highly competent and tough minded in a situation that requires this demeanor. This is a very important quality for negotiating settlements and dealing with the opposition. I highly recommend using Ms. Roche for any of your legal questions and concerns.

100% confidence and trust

Lisa has a great way of explaining very complicated legal matters. We have used her to write our will and trust, then she also is helping us to manage our grandmothers estate. She has made some dramatic positive changes to the way her will was written so that our family can be sure that her estate ...is in good hands and protected. We have never met a more personable and friendly lawyer, it is great to have her on our side when it comes to making tough family legal decisions. It is such a relief to know someone has our best long term interest in mind.

Special Needs Trust

I needed an attorney for a Special Needs Trust from my deceased mother from Maine to care for my sister in RI and I live in Maryland. Lisa has advised me since 2006 to date handling the estate and trust and being my representative long distance for all legal work and taxes. Her approach has always be...en professional and yet she took the time to be considerate of my grief and confusion regarding the ins and outs of managing the trust. I truly do not know how I would have made it through these last years without her expertise and care.
