Great estate planning experience

Ms. Marchegiano is the third estate attorney we have used and is by far the best. This is a very complex and emotionally sensitive task. And she is terrific at making it straight forward. We have always been very comfortable with her, and her staff, they exude confidence and competence. All while b...eing very personable and pleasant to work with. We are so fortunate to have found her.

Estate Planning: Highly Recommend JM Law

My wife and I have worked with Jessica Marchegiano and JM Law for our Estate Planning needs. Until we met Jessica we knew very little about Revocable Living Trusts. Jessica explained to us in minute detail all there is to know about Living Trusts and walked us step by step what we needed to do in o...rder to create our trust and the decisions that we had to make in order to finalize the trust documents. Jessica was very professional, to the point, extremely easy to work with, very accommodating and on top of all that very knowledgeable in her field. We couldn’t have been happier that we were able to work with Jessica for this rather complex and ever changing field. Jessica is well aware of the constant changes in law and she wastes no time in adapting the new laws to her clients needs and ensures that her past clients are up to date on those recent changes that would require maintenance in their revocable trusts. We would highly recommend Jessica and JM Law for all your Estate Planning needs.

Highly Recommend

Jessica and her team did a fantastic job. They were extremely helpful in walking me through the process and describing how the documents work together to ensure my wishes are carried out.

Best decision ever!

I am fortunate that JM Law is associated with my financial planning firm, Cassaday. Although my Living Trust was fairly simple, Jessica worked closely with me to cover all aspects needed for a thorough document. Since we were working together at the beginning of the pandemic, she was able to comple...te our work remotely, which was wonderful. I continue our working relationship in keeping all of my documents current. I would highly recommend Jessica and her firm for all of your estate-planning needs!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Personable and extremely knowledgeable!

Jessica and her team were a great resource for our estate planning needs and helped us build a plan that gives us the comfort that all our wishes and family needs will be met should anything happen to my husband and I, or one of us for that matter. The team was extremely responsive and very professio...nal. Jessica is very knowledgeable and made it easy for us to understand her recommendations. Legal language can be quite confusing, but she took the time to walk us through all pages of our plans and explain clearly how everything would work. She also recommended professionals to help us implement our estate plan, which made the process even more seamless.
