I assist clients during the most difficult time in their life, following the loss of a loved one. I help clients navigate the sometimes confusing probate process, and assist with trust administrations, in Maryland and the District of Columbia.

An excellent experience

We contacted Lindsey to revise and update our previous estate and trust papers in accordance with the recent changes in the law. The documents she prepared received unsolicited praise for clarity and comprehensiveness from another attorney involved in our estate planning process. They reflect not onl...y an outstanding level of legal expertise, but also extensive experience in addressing the individual circumstances of the client. In our case, from the beginning and throughout the process, she has been most responsive to our own family's needs and our objectives in addressing them. She devoted time to carefully addressing our questions and was proactive in suggesting and proposing options to resolve problematic aspects of our trust. She guided us to finalization of the estate papers in a patient and supportive role. She is an excellent attorney and wonderful to work with.

Client

Lindsey Sarowitz was extremely professional throughout the entire process of helping us with my brother and his wife's will and ultimately helping with my brother's small estate. Her prices are most reasonable. She also was available to answer many questions from me and other members of my brother...'s family. I highly recommend her without any reservations. We were most happy.

Ms. Sarowitz’s Legal Services

Ms. Sarowitz prepared several estate planning documents for me. Her legal advice was very clear and thorough and she carefully listened to all of my concerns and accommodated them in the documents. She was prompt in delivering the documents for my review and I was very pleased with the care and p...recision with which she drafted the documents. I also note that Ms. Sarowitz was personable and it was a pleasure to be her client. I am happy to recommend her.

Excellent Attorney

I hired Ms. Sarowitz to redo my Will, POA and Medical Directive. She was knowledgeable about the law, and answered all of my questions and concerns both in person and by email. I never felt rushed when meeting in person with her, and came away from my experience completed satisfied.

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.
