If You Want An Expert, Look No Further!

It was a pleasure working with Desiree Fusco and her staff to create a trust, wills, power of attorneys and health care proxies for my wife and myself. She is clearly an expert in all aspects of these legal matters. She answerred all of our myriad questions with patience and clarity and made... the entire process a breeze. We never felt any pressure to rush through the paperwork if we did not understand something. We will definitely be using her again if we need further work in these areas.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
