Will Update

After attending an informational seminar with Cheryl David my wife and I decided to pursue updating our previous will. We met Paul as part of our first session and he was extremely thorough and knowledgeable. His review of the final papers and process was once again very complete and he encouraged an...d answered all of our questions. Paul deserves and has earned our highest recommendation!

Estate planning sessions

My husband and I were very pleased with Paul's legal advice, the documents he prepared for us, and the legal fees charged. I would definitely recommend him to our friends.

Help with my mother's estate

After my mother's passing, I was being named executor of her estate. I was overwhelmed with all the legalities of this position and had no idea what to do. But I hired Mr. Zucchino and he very patiently and thoroughly guided me through the process. He very clearly answered any question I had about my... mother's estate. I am very thankful for his help and I could never have done this by myself.

Estate Planning

Paul assisted my husband and I with our estate planning and was able to help us set up a trust to ensure that our family would be taken care of in the future. He was very responsive, knowledgeable and professional throughout the process. We highly recommend him for any estate planning needs.

"Paul Zucchino may have been born to help clients through the difficult probate process and dealing with the loss of a loved one. Paul has a calm and comforting demeanor that immediately puts his clients at ease. Aside from being extremely knowledgable and capable of handling the numerous intricacies of estate administration, Paul is extremely organized and works very hard to stay ahead of deadlines. Having gone through the experience of losing a family member and trying to navigate the maze that is estate administration at a time when all I wanted to do was grieve, I would highly recommend speaking with Paul about helping you with your needs so that you can focus on what is most important, you and your family in your time of need."

  • 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.
