Anne E Crane

My husband and I recently engaged Anne Crane for Trust and Estate planning. We had been going on and on with our general attorney for over a year about this process but were, it seemed, just going around in circles. Anne was able to put our interests and concerns in perspective, walked us through '...Estate Planning 101', and translated all the legal, tax, and asset protection issues into plain language for us so we could understand what we were doing. We are very impressed with her wealth of knowledge, incredibly analytical skills and her practical approach with near 30 years of experience. She is very creative and thoughtful in working to achieve our objectives within the constraints of the law in a very tax (estate, income, and gift) efficient way. She was always very reachable, personable, calm, and patient in taking us through every step. At the end of the day, her fee is reasonable and more than paid for itself in tax savings by looking forward and being proactive in the planning stage. We both feel very comfortable and secure with the plan Anne put forth and consider ourselves very fortunate to know such a skilled and personable attorney. Anne is truly exceptional, clearly one of the best of best in Connecticut and New York State, on estate planning, with a unique and special expertise in dealing with clients/families as real people.

We engaged Anne Crane when it came time to update our will/estate planning. She came highly recommended by other trusted professionals, but the decision was solidified by a gut instinct that she was the right attorney for us. She possesses the intelligence and integrity to address all of our legal ne...eds, yet is able to clearly and succinctly convey pertinent information to us in language we can easily understand! We look forward to many years as clients!
