Real Estate

This year I went through the process of buying my first home and it turned out to be quite the adventure, but through the ups and downs Anita's firm was there for me, especially her paralegal Iola. I went through 2 housing contracts that fell through, and one that I finally closed on. Anita's office ...was always there for urgent situations such as getting certain paperwork taken care of, or dealing with other parties, such as my bank or real estate brokers, directly on my behalf. This all took months of dedicated effort but they made it so easy for me to contact them by phone or email for whatever was needed and were always quick to respond. Several times Iola went above and beyond in faxing things for me or putting in calls as needed. Perhaps most importantly, she really listened to me and never made me feel like I was annoying her with my million questions or ridiculously long emails. She gave me so much information I wouldn't have known otherwise and the relationship felt personal even though I didn't meet her in person until right before my close. She just made an otherwise crazy experience less crazy by being there for me every step of the way. And as we rushed to close in time before the end of the month she was always reachable and seemingly continuously working on my case for a few days straight even though I'm sure in reality she was juggling my case and her other clients as well. I can't say enough about how helpful she was and how often she put me at ease. Even now that we have closed she has still been answering questions for me, which goes above and beyond her job description I'm sure. Anita too was there to ensure funds were transferred to agents properly, and she was there on my close day to congratulate me. Working with this office was my pleasure and I know that if I had any other legal needs I would come back to them. Highly recommend!

The Legal Doctor

She is an excellent attorney. Has helped me greatly through my divorce, my sons citizen certification, and my husbands process as well. She's a great soul, caring and passionate about helping those who need it. She is to legal processes what a doctor is to medical emergencies, attentive, focused and ...urgent. I recommend her services to any who ask. She will always make you feel safe and calm. I have no doubt in her talents and professionalism

I highly recommend her services

I couldn't be any happier to have had the opportunity of hiring her for my case, Luana and Aiola are also part of this great team, they're very helpful and respectfull, always prompt to help reagardless of anything. Anita is a great professional, kind and genuine. She gave me the best advices for my... case and did such a great follow up until the last minute. I'll be happier to recommend her for my friends.

Excellant Professional, Detailed and Well Organized

I came to Ms. Mignone-Lazaro regarding a divorce. She was very honest with me, gave me both worse case scenario and best case. She returned all of my calls and her staff was impeccable. They where both very courteous and not only explained things to me in English but where bi-lingual and always made ...me comfortable as I had many questions about the divorce process. I would use Ms. Mignone-Lazaro again, and would recommend her to any friends and family.

Anita is a professional like no other I've known

Anita helped my husband with his get is green card. She was so kind, reassuring and accommodating which was a godsend for my husband who was nervous about the whole process. She went through every detail step by step throughly until we were absolutely satisfied. The process felt like a simple task af...ter she was done with it. It's obvious to me that she has a true desire to help others and a dedicated professionalism to her clients and will always see the case the whole way through regardless of obstacles. I can honestly say I never had a trust for lawyers (still don't) but Anita is a clear exception. I would always recommend her services.
