Excellent lawyer. Knows his stuff

Brian is great working with people. He cares and takes his time. I’ve consulted with him for real estate and estate planning issues. I highly recommend him.

Estate Planning Professional

I am extremely grateful for the legal services that were provided by the Anthony Urban Law Offices. This team of professionals has provided quality assistance to my family. I highly recommend working with Anthony and Brian Urban. Pat, in their support staff, is a pleasure to work with. Our initial... experience with the Urban Law Offices was with Will preparation for my father. Some life changes caused our family to search for a professional service so that my father could update the directives for his estate after his passing. We knew we couldn’t depend on an online resource to complete this task. We needed individuals who were subject matter experts that could personally guide us through the process. Upon recommendation, we approached the Urban Law Office whose expertise was immediately apparent. They assisted my father with his Last Will & Testament, and an Advanced Healthcare Directive. The preparation of these documents was completed in a thoughtful manner. It’s not easy to talk about what happens to your assets upon the death of a family member but the Urban Law Office made the experience a valued one. Our follow-up experience was a somber one. Knowing that our initial meeting was in preparation for future events, my family was now faced with our father’s passing and managing the estate from this point forward. The Urban Law Office immediately came to mind as the team that could help us. Being the executor of my father’s estate I didn’t know where I should start. I live in Georgia but my father’s estate was in Pennsylvania. I was immediately assured that the distance would not be an obstacle. Since I was in town for a short period I immediately started working with Brian Urban. He helped guide me in organizing the steps I needed to take to prepare the estate. Even on short notice he freed up his schedule to talk and advise me along the way. All document preparation, legal submissions, and recording of information was handled in a very quick and professional manner. I know the decision to go back to the Urban team was the right one. Even to this day, I continue to interact with the team. There are some loose ends we need to tie up and they have been just as responsive as when we were in a more urgent time. Thanks again for you professionalism and assistance. For those that live in Schuylkill County, and surrounding counties give the Urban Law Office a try for your legal needs.

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.
