Linda Anne Amato

I could not have found a better trust lawyer than Linda Amato. I was at a loss on how to proceed, but she talked me through the whole process, efficiently and with empathy. She really made an effort to accommodate my schedule, made many helpful suggestions, and in no time I ended up with a neatly org...anized binder holding all the information I need. Another factor that made me choose Linda was, that she works by herself, and I never was referred to a junior staff member, as may happen at larger offices.

Linda is a competent, knowledgeable and trustworthy attorney. And just as important a pleasure to deal with . We came to Linda with very limited knowledge about estate planning and Linda guided us through the decision making process with much sensitivity and patience. Linda was straightforward, ...open and honest when she presented the options available to us and did not apply any pressure for us to decide one way or another. Yet, she shared her opinions and recommendations to us with clarity.

Linda is very knowledgeable and hard working. I consulted with her as she created a trust and health care documents for an elderly friend of mine. She was always patient and caring in working with my friend and I observed Linda proactively advocate on my friend’s behalf when she couldn’t do it hersel...f. After my friend’s passing, as Executor of her estate, I hired Linda to be the estate attorney. She has been enormously helpful to me, patiently walking me through what turned out to be a rather complicated estate process. I trust her judgment, find her dependable, responsive and easy to work with and will soon be engaging her to set up my own estate.

My husband and I were looking for an estate lawyer to set up a family trust and feel very fortunate to have found Linda Amato. We have a complicated family situation which includes 2nd marriages with children from our first and current relationships. In addition we have a child with special needs. ... We found Linda to be intelligent and very knowledgeable as well as personable and compassionate. She had an understanding of our situation including issues that we did not foresee. Linda provided us with extra time needed without an additional cost to create a family trust that fit our needs. We highly recommend her!

I hired Linda to help me with my estate planning, including transferring all of my assets into a revocable trust, establishing power of attorney, healthcare proxy, and other related matters. I had put off handling these things because although I'm young and healthy, I was uncomfortable thinking about... and dealing with such potential end-of-life issues and scenarios. And as a single woman with no children, I found contemplating these issues even more difficult. It's sobering to face end-of-life "what ifs" when you're alone. Linda is not only an expert in these legal matters, she's also a very caring advocate--especially for single women. I truly appreciated the time she took to explain the pros and cons of all the options available to me and that she did so in a very personal and supportive way. I highly recommend Linda as an estate planning attorney.
