Great Attorney

Samuel Blatt represented me in an estate in which I was named as executrix. He was polite, efficient, quick to respond to requests and questions, pleasant to work with. and extremely qualified. It was a pleasure working with him and I wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

  • 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.
