This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Anthony Marrone

Anthony was referred to my husband and I by my aunt's attorney who was running for a judgeship in Syracuse. She gave us excellent information regarding Anthony's background, personality and his knowledge of the elder care law which is what we were looking for. My husband and I met with Anthony and I ...new immediately that he was the attorney for my husband and I. We met several times because I became the sole heir of my aunt's estate and I definitely needed guidance on a great many issues. He was excellent and guiding me through the estate process and how to handle issues going forward. We felt a great weight had been lifted off our shoulders since we hired Anthony as our attorney. We truly think the world of him. Excellent attorney and have already recommended him to a few of my friends.

Professional results, Personal service

Moving from former attorney (she became a judge) to a new one could have been unpleasant. Mr. Marrone made the transition smooth, both by his welcoming nature and by having learned of my interests/needs in advance and being prepared. The resulting service: Spot on!

Average

Anthony is an okay lawyer, but does not have the experience he holds himself out to have. I received conflicting information from him, and several lawyers at a very large firm in town. If you want basic small stuff done, i'm sure he's good, but that's really it.

I value this feedback from a potential client, so thank you for letting me know you were not satisfied with your interactions with me and my law firm. This matter does not sound familiar, and we strive for the utmost client satisfaction in every case. I try to be as up front as possible in our interactions with potential clients about my experience and the types of matters I can handle. If you would like to call me directly to discuss this matter further, you can reach me at 315-728-9433 x2001.

Helpful!

My family has consulted with several time and will be having Mr Marrone do some legal Estate planning for us. He has been quick to respond to questions or concerns, extremely knowledgable as well as caring and compassionate in a very difficult time. Would highly recommend him!

"After closing a real estate transaction, my clients often ask me how to protect their real estate investment going forward through estate planning. Not having extensive experience in that particular area of law, I often refer my client’s to Anthony. Not only is Anthony very knowledgeable in that area of law, but he is also very personable – something my clients value – receiving professional level services without feeling like you’re talking to an attorney."
