Ms.

We worked with Gabriel on Estate Planning with an extremely tight timeline and were delighted to find him amazingly accommodating, knowledgeable and friendly. He is a talented professional who has tremendous experience and competence. His efficiency in understanding our case and executing the plan pr...omptly have put us at great ease - having made a complex subject both simple and tax efficient. His transparent communication regarding his fees too, was an icing on the cake. We would highly recommend him.

Excellent Service

Estate planning seems a bit daunting, but Gabe and his team eased all our concerns within minutes of our first consult. Not only is Gabe professional and smart, but he is courteous, thorough and listens carefully before offering up suitable options. He prepared wills for my husband and me, and turn...ed them around in short order. We live in NY, and met up in his office to finalize signatures. One and done. After having such a pleasant experience, I thought it’d be good to set up my elder aunties in NJ up with their wills as well. It was during Covid, and the experience was just as easy. We had several Zoom calls to clarify what was best for my aunties. He was so patient and kind. Strangely enough, this is quite important and comforting when discussing lifetime earnings and assets. There is no doubt he is a terrific estate planner and he’s fees are reasonable. We’d give him 10 stars if we could. Hire him, you won’t regret it.

Estate Docs

Gabriel was professional, expeditious and courteous developing my estate documents . He gathered the necessary information, quickly provided a draft for my review and was readily available to revise the document as necessary. I was a bit slow to get back to him on certain things, but that did not ...at all affect the timeliness of his responses. Also, due to the pandemic, I was unable to execute the documents in a traditional fashion and Gabriel set up a zoom signing and laid out the process to get the officially executed documents witnessed, and notarized and returned easily and quickly - which was a step beyond and gave me great peace of mind during a dark time. It was great professional service.

Excellent experience!

First of all, if you don’t have an estate plan, get one together because you never know what will happen and it is in the best interest of all of your loved ones to ensure you leave your hard earned assets to the right people. This review is a reflection of Gabe as a friend first then our estate plan...ning attorney. We all prefer to work with those you trust so it was definitely our relationship with Gabe that built that trust first. Gabe is a person of integrity and it is apparent in all aspects of who he is and what he does. We first became acquainted with Gabe through our kids who attend the same school. Our families became friends quickly as we aligned well with our mindsets, enjoyed one another’s sense of humor and outlook on life. We were ecstatic to learn what he did as his profession as we needed to update our family trust that was established years ago in a different state. The entire process was so convenient as everything was done remotely through emails, e-notary and zoom calls. He was in constant communication and gently nudged when we needed reminders to get all that was required to him and his team....much appreciated when we have so much to juggle in every day life. He took the time to explain and clarify our questions to make sure we were on the same page at every turn. The cost of his services was reasonable for his attention to detail and professionalism. We now have the peace of mind that our estate plans are in order and highly recommend him to all within our circle who require his services.
