Always exceed our expectations!

We have known Mark for over 30 years and have used his service (and other partners in his office as well) for all our legal needs. Most recently, we have our "Last Will and Testament" done by Mark. Mark is extremely knowledgeable in estate planning, and his efficiency and professionalism is most impr...essive. He gave us a detailed overview of the process, and in doing so, also gave us insights and options to various decision points. We are very happy with Mark's service, and would highly recommend Mark and his office for any legal work.

Excellent attorney and firm

We had the pleasure of working with Mark Chazin in drafting our wills. As an attorney myself in another practice area, I appreciated his professional approach and knowledge of the subject area. Our wills and accompanying documents were prepared quickly and in accordance with our desires. We have u...sed the firm for other tasks, including pronating an estate, and have been well satisfied. Recommend without limitation.

Updated Estate Planning Documents

This was the second time we used Mark after creating our first wills with him over 11 years ago and it was another great experience. It is clear that he knows what he is talking about and is very easy to work with.

Estate Plan Update

Right at the outset, in our first meeting, Mark helped me resolve a number of very sticky issues with regard to my Estate Plan that I had been struggling with for many months. Once these were resolved, I was pleased with how smoothly the updating process proceeded. I much appreciated Mark's profes...sionalism and breadth of experience, and his patience in carefully answering all of my questions. The entire process required only two meetings.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
