Estate Planning

I hired Attorney Allaire for assistance during a very trying time for my family. Attorney Allaire expertly assisted with elder care issues, asset protection, and estate planning. He came highly recommended, and he lives up to his reputation -- I give him and his team my highest recommendation. We wer...e working against some very tight deadlines, and Attorney Allaire and his team were incredibly personable, responsive, and competent. He has assembled a powerhouse group that can expertly navigate the confusing terrain of elder care law and planning. He's a man of integrity, which is incredibly refreshing.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
