Great firm to work with. Always on top of things. Kim was particularly great to work with. This was a complicated estate with all the parties located out of State. The Kaufman firm made it easy to settle the estate. I highly recommend them.

"I endorse this lawyer. Scott is a worthy adversary and a pragmatic attorney. He knows when to play "hard ball"and when to negotiate in a client's best interest.

I would hire him if i had a trusts and estates litigation."
