Smooth process

We wanted to have peace of mind in future. That’s why we decided to create a trust that was offered by the Melnik Law Group. The process of creating it went pretty smooth. The staff are professional and courteous. Special thanks to Gayane Galstyan, trust coordinator. It was a pleasure working wi...th her. She was very helpful and caring during the whole process. Whenever you have questions, she would answer them over the phone or tell you to come to the office. We hope that everything will work the way we expect when time comes.

Great experience creating a trust!

We had a great experience creating a family trust and other planning documents at the Brooklyn office of Prof. Melnik. Previously, we received consultations from 2 other firms. From the beginning, we liked that Prof. Melnik is both a lawyer and a CPA, giving him a unique insight and perspective. We w...ere finally convinced that we would hire this firm when we met the staff. From the very informative lecture, to the personal meeting with Prof Melnik, to working with his assistants, we were very impressed by their high professional standards, knowledge, and quickness of responses to our questions. Documents were created on the time schedule that was promised initially. We would like to especially praise Gayane (an amazing trust coordinator) and Michelle (an assistant and guru of documents.) They offered in-depth explanation of the process and the documents, and were ready to work with us on the many changes we made to a complex trust. They were also very accessible by email and phone, responded to questions super quickly, and made all steps of the way smooth and clear. Thank you so much again! We are definitely recommending your firm to our family and friends.
