Robert Kurre, Elder Law attorney

Robert Kurre represented me in my capacity as a trustee of two trusts. He is quite knowledgeable in elder law and saw to it that the trusts were properly administered and settled. He was a great help in seeing to it that assets were preserved for the beneficiaries. My sister and I and our spouses ar...e also presently using Mr. Kurre for our own estate planning. We know we are in good hands with him.

Robert Kurre, Attorney at Law

Robert Kurre handled the Trust of my deceased mother. I was totally ignorant of what this process entailed and, as I live out-of-state, this complicated the process. He guided me every step of the way and infinitely patient with me. There was no question he would not answer. Aside from his responsibi...lities, he referred me to other professionals in New York state who could assist in other facets of my mother's affairs. This was a daunting situation made so much easier by Mr. Kurre and his staff. Should you consult Mr. Kurre, you will be the recipient of the level of expertise only years of practicing law can provide. On every level, I have enjoyed the better part of this relationship. I highly recommend attorney Robert Kurre and his associates.

Client; Probate matter

Mr. Kurre and his staff fully explained the entire probate process to me, from beginning to end. In addition, he was kind and compassionate at a difficult time. I have worked with several members of the staff at Kurre Schneps. Each person has been knowledgeable and professional. The firm is facili...tating the transfer of a home to a beneficiary and assisting in preparing a second property for sale. I highly recommend their services for any probate and estate matters.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
