100 % Professional!

The Best!!!Working with Augulis Law Firm was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my family’s future. They treated me with genuine care and compassion, not just like another client. The peace of mind I felt after completing my estate plan is something I can’t put a price on. They truly listened, a...nswered all my questions, and made a difficult process feel simple and empowering. I’m deeply grateful for their guidance!

State of NJ Rebate Error

After several phone calls to the State Department of Taxation without any results, I contacted this office and the issue was resolved within a few days. The staff at this lawyer's office was very efficient, polite and above professional. We are very pleased with the results, and would highly recommen...d this law firm.

Excellence and knowledge

We visited this firm regarding my parents welfare in regards to medical and power of attorney. The staff was so very knowledgeable and professional we came back to do a living trust. Again, everything was handled professionally. Mr. Augulis explained so much that we were unaware of; we were lucky to ...have him and his staff handle our living trust. No question was left unanswered. I would recommend the Augulis Law firm to anyone looking for information regarding trusts and elder care. They clearly exceeded our expectations.

GREAT ESTATE LAWYER

My mom used Mr. Augulis for her estate planning. When my mom died, a friend convinced me to engage a major law firm that she had used to handle the estate. What a mistake! Within 6 weeks of their handling her estate, the bills were over $50000! I was being overbilled by two lawyers on the case, bot...h of whom were billing at over $500 an hour with the partner billing for "attention to detail" on a daily basis for over $450! I realized that I had made a mistake in not allowing Mr. Augulis to handle the estate. I engaged Mr. Augulis and found his fees to be reasonable, the work to be excellent and the communications to be superb. An attorney on his staff, Peggy, was there for me every step of the way. Mr. Augulis put me in contact with a fine accountant who handled the estate tax return filings. Mr. Augulis was competent, capable, honest and someone I do not hesitate to recommend. He is truly a hidden gem of an attorney! In a world where many lawyers are unethical and interested in billable hours over client's interests, Mr. Augulis is a light of fresh air. Thank you Mr. Augulis for helping me with mom's estate! I do not know what I would have done without you!
