Knowledgable, professional, responsive.
I worked with Gary Melamed to execute a will, my first time managing a process like this. Gary was helpful, knowledgeable, informative, and responsive throughout the whole process. I never had to wait for an answer, and Gary was patient in explaining the details to me so I understood the process.
