Estate Planning 35%

"Estate" is the legal term used to define your property and money—basically, everything that belongs to you. Estate planning attorneys tell you different strategies you can use to transfer your belongings after you die. By planning your estate, you can maximize its value by minimizing taxes and eliminating court costs and interference. Estate planning attorneys also help you control and protect your estate during your lifetime, by writing documents that allow you to transfer property and money.

Always available

i own a dog grooming business and Ron was a client of mine. I had a loan with the bank and had paid off nearly all of the loan and only had $2500 to go when I recieved a letter stating my loan was sold and the bank that took it over was demanding $11,000 ( $1,000 more than the actual loan) and I prov...ided the letter and all necessary paperwork showing all I had already paid and he had the rest of the loan forgiven. Most recently I had hired someone to do a website for me and the person used copyrighted material on my website and I had recieved a cease and desist email and Ron was able to handle that matter!! Ron ialways reaponds in a timely manner and is knowledgeable and very honest. He always has his clients best interest at heart and will do whatever he can to help them.

Meeting in the Forbidden Kingdom

I met Ron Fichera in 2007. He was providing legal counsel for a company that had hired me to do project work in China. The negotiations were not going as well as I had hoped. After a conference call Ron and I agreed to speak by phone later in the day. I was very frustrated with his employer. Whe...n we spoke I asked him directly, "can we agree that we will find a solution before we hang up?" His reply was, "yes we will" Three hours later we had worked everything out! I laugh because not only is he a master negotiator, but I felt good that he had listened so well regarding the cultural differences and how they would impact his client. We actually met face-to-face a few months later in China. As we proceeded that week I could tell he was different. So many lawyers become jaded, cynical and all about the money, but Ron is authentic to the core. As our business came to a close that week in China I asked him if I could hire him to represent me on another matter. That "other matter" turned into a journey that has lasted almost 10 years now. He is a good listener, because he hears what is "not spoken" out loud. That requires a very special skill set. Everything is done exactly when he says it will be done, in a most professional manner with a code of ethics that I have seen rarely in my 30+ year professional career. He has represented me personally and professionally with various issues through the years. He's human, he's authentic, he's very smart about International Law. I prefer direct and to the point conversation and to date, he's never sugar-coated anything. I wholeheartedly recommend Ron Fichera to perform legal work.
