Trust funds for special needs children

Nick was extremely helpful in estate planning for our family, especially in providing advice for our special needs children's trust funds.

Estate

Dominic was very experienced and more the helpful he went above and beyond for my estate and probate case he was very attentive to my questions and when I didn't understand something he broke it down for me to understand he really goes the extra mile to get things done

Great Lawyer!

Nick is a very conscientious detail oriented lawyer. Could not ask for better support. He makes all the legalese very easy to understand. I am so happy with the results he’s gotten me!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
