Professional Service: Elder Law, Estate Planning, Wills & Trust

I highly recommend The Hobbs Law Firm which we hired to manage my parents' estate planning for many years. Kevin and his Associates provided exceptional legal support as they aged well into their 90s. They kept my sisters and me (out of staters) continually informed about matters involving Wills, Tru...sts, Power of Attorney, and Medical Directives. Most recently, they provided incredible guidance before, during, and after the sale of their home during the pandemic. Kevin’s, time, counsel, empathy, kindness, and patience meant the world to us especially during the past six years while dealing with all aspects of our parents’ healthcare and finances. When we count our blessings, we are very grateful for The Hobbs Law Firm’s sincere support and superior service.

Estate Planning... Wills... Trusts... Probate

I highly and enthusiastically recommend Attorney Kevin Hobbs who we first hired seven years ago. His understanding of elder law, estate planning, and the real estate market were evident from the start. He is a caring, respectful, and extremely knowledgeable attorney. His patience, delivery, and atten...tion to legal detail were always appreciated. Documents and materials were well-prepared and presented in a timely and informative manner. I trusted that Kevin’s advice and recommendations were always in our family’s best interests. Thank you, Attorney Kevin Hobbs, for your guidance and support, throughout the years.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Very prompt and professional service.

As out-of-staters, we needed guidance and advice on an estate matter in NY. Mr. Hobbs was excellent. He gave us a very prompt consultation and was very thorough and straightforward. He wrote us an excellent letter summarizing his opinion in the matter. Many thanks for a great help to us.
