The trusted attorney I rely on

For the past ten years, Marc Weisman has been my attorney. An unexpected bonus was for the bond that we would create over this past decade. Marc has worked on my real estate purchases, trusts, contracts, estate planning, and other legal matters. I find Marc to be so smart and capable in all of t...hese matters. Like many people dealing with legal issues, I get a little excited and emotional, but I find that Marc’s personality is a calming force. He is kind, compassionate, caring and most importantly I trust him, and he knows his stuff. Marc does not get flustered. He listens, absorbs, and comes up with solutions. He explains very patiently and clearly. This is wonderful for a client like me. I never thought out of this relationship that I would call my attorney a dear trusted friend.

The attorney that makes attorneys look good

Marc Weissman has been my Attorney for about 18 years. I have used Marc for my commercial and residential Real Estate purchases, commercial leasing, Estate planning, Trusts, asset protection, contracts, and other areas of law. He is very smart, extremely knowledgeable, calm, patient and easy to talk... to. Another bonus is that Marc has an accounting degree and he is great with numbers. Whenever an outside expert is needed for consultation, Marc always knows just who to use. Marc has earned my respect by always being responsive and caring. He is an honest, trusted attorney and has become a dear friend to me and my wife over the many years. I am lucky to know Marc and have him as my attorney.

In addition, he has always been available to answer questions that pertain to our financial holdings, future investments, and matters that deal with taxes and real estate. Not only is Mr.... Weissman extremely knowledgeable, but he goes the extra mile in order to assure us that our discussions and decisions will have positive results.In otherwords, during these changing and difficult times, he is available more than just answer questions. He explores, in depth, our concerns, and he is willing to make changes when necessary. Because of his expertise and his genuine concern for his clients, we have recommended him to our friends and family. The feedback that we have received from them has been very positive. Sincerely, Jane and Jerry

Extremely helpful and knowledgeable

Marc guided me through the difficult process of administering my late brother's estate. He and Kathy Villanueva, his paralegal were responsive to my concerns and questions. I felt very confident in their advice.

Worst Case Scenario, Best Case Attorney for the Job

My mother had died intestate, my two brothers had been living rent free in a home that was about to be crushed under the weight of mounting tax liens. The thought of anyone wanting to buy a dilapidated 100 year old home with old open permits (from 1947!) on the brink of foreclosure seemed impossible.... As would the task of handling my deceased mother's affairs. It was all very stressful and I having no knowledge of what to do put my trust in Marc and Kathy (his super capable paralegal). He was knowledgable and patient as he set up the steps to have me appointed the administrator of my mother's estate, having my brother's sign the necessary waivers, and go forth with the sale of the home. He was always prepared for the worst as I hoped for the best. I am so very glad we chose him. My brothers cooperated and I was appointed administrator to the estate in what seemed like record time. He negotiated with the buyer and we were able to sell the home even with the open permit and violations that turned up in the title search. He prepared Informal Accounting to show each of us what we got from the sale so there would be no issues or questions. Marc's paralegal Kathy was truly amazing and helped clear many issues on the house, including judgments against my brothers, mortgages from 30 years ago (!), and the aforementioned open permits and violations. They communicated constantly with me, be it phone or email and I never felt in the dark. Plus anyone with the patience to ignore my energetic 2 and 3 year old at the initial meeting and maintain such razor focus explaining the steps to be done is a truly special and talented attorney. Closing was quick, and we received our proceeds the next week. It all seemed to happen so fast and they always had my best interests at heart and I am very grateful for the work that Marc and Kathy did for us.
