Joseph Augustine Kelly

Attorney Kelly was AMAZING! My Mom had passed away, and we are located in CT. Very unfamiliar with NY LAW, we needed to make sure we had the right legal advice dealing with the transfer of REAL property. Attorney Kelly got the job done, in a timely manner, and executed all parts of the transaction... flawlessly. He will be handling all my NY legal matters for me and family in the future. Call him today for all your legal needs that he may service!

Attorney Kelly helped clear up all the issues we had with a previous trust documents along with a deed for the house. His assistance helped us get the land records straightened out with the Westchester County clerk's office that we had tried numerous times to resolve unsuccessfully. The previous ...legal firm in NYC had put together a very complicated trust which involved a QTIP Marital Trust and Family Trust that were inappropriate for our needs. Attorney Kelly greatly simplified the document and corrected mistakes they made which affected placing the house into the trust. This also helped clear up the mistakes the previous firm had made which affected the land records with the Westchester County Clerk. We very much appreciated his timely follow-ups by phone and by email. He was very reasonably priced and offered far more value than the NYC firm we dealt with previously. Working with him has been a pleasure.

Joe Kelly was recommended to me and my husband when we needed assistance getting an elderly relative in a nursing home. We were so overwhelmed with all that needed to be done. He handled everything in a professional manner, answered all our questions, filed everything that needed to be done, and we... were able to get our loved one the help she needed. Since that time we have had Joe handle all our legal family issues. He has done it with sincerity and compassion. I would highly recommend him. He is not only my attorney, but I consider him to be a friend.

Mr. Kelly was recommended to me through the long term care facility where my dad was receiving rehabilitation. My dad needed long term care so I hired him to assist in the medicaid application. Mr. Kelly was extremely helpful in guiding me through the difficult medicaid application process. He answer...ed many emails and phone calls to my numerous questions. We were successful in getting my dad medicaid-qualified and able to stay in the long term care facility. I would highly recommend Mr. Kelly.

I was the executor of my mother's estate. Joe Kelly was recommended to me. I hired him - a decision I now regret. When I asked him about filing a certain paper, when he finally got back to me he told me there was an initial paper that had to be filed. I asked him why that paper had not been filed... months before and his non-answer was telling. Finally, the estate was concluded and I sent Kelly an affidavit to that effect, to be filed as part of the closing of the estate. I just checked the Westchester County Surrogate's Court and was told my affidavit was not filed and the estate is still "open." I don't know whether Mr. Kelly was going through problematic personal issues at the time, but my experience with him suggests that his handling of my mother's estate either was - or bordered upon - professional malpractice.
