Beyond Excellent

Carla provided an excellent consultation for our family regarding elder guardianship proceedings and all it entails. This was our first experience with an attorney, and she provided instant action items we could take on our own without having to retain legal services. I never expected an attorney to ...actively encourage the least litigious course of action possible, but Carla’s heart is to truly honor elders by finding the best possible outcome for both their care and the family’s peace of mind. Carla helped our family navigate a potential crisis in the least intrusive manner possible. I cannot explain the immediate lifting of what was becoming an incredible weight on our shoulders. In one consultation, she gave us renewed hope. We are forever grateful, and would not hesitate to retain Carla if there is a need.

Experienced, Knowledgable, Kind and Compassionate

We were seeking an attorney to assist us with the unexpected task of Guardianship for our daughter nearing eighteen. A rare genetic disorder resulted in some mild intellectual disabilities for our daughter and forced us to seek protection for us in her affairs. We were clueless on the impacts and req...uirements not to mention quite emotional about the process. Carla kindly guided us through our options and made recommendations to fit our situation. She took into account our needs, financial concerns and was courteous in keeping our daughter as the priority. Carla and her team kept the process moving smoothly and quickly. When it was time for Carla to meet our daughter she made her feel comfortable and even followed up with a staff birthday card for her. The experience was not one we anticipated but were thankful to have Carla lead us through to completion. We would recommend her services and will seek her counsel again in the future.

Creating a Family Trust

After putting off the many tough decisions for so many years, I am glad that when I finally bit the bullet, Carla was there. At the ready, willing and able to get us through what we thought would be overwhelming. Instead, she and the Berg-Bryant staff, broke it down, answering our questions, providin...g solutions for all of our concerns. Carla turned my trepidations into a memorable experience...in spite of a Pandemic!

Personalized, Trustworthy Representation

As a recent widow, with no children and a high risk patient, facing upcoming surgery, I needed to put my affairs in order. A new friend had recommended the Berg - Bryant Elder Law Practice. Being medically home bound, arrangements were made and I met CARLA TRINCA-CONLEY, a joyously spirited y...oung lady., with a great sense of humanity and kindness. Accompanied by her wonderful assistant GRAY, a delightful young gentleman who is quite accomplished and as is CARLA, quite genuine. This law team made complicated issues easy to understand. They saw to it my final wishes were documented as I wanted them to be and that I was reassured of its protection and execution. I was made to feel as a client should feel. Respected and heard. And cared about after the bill was paid. I feel a true fondness for CARLA, GRAY, JOANNE and LIZ in the office as well. Sincerely. I highly recommend this magnificent young attorney CARLA TRINCA-CONLEY.

Caring, Considerate and Kind

The entire team was warm, kind and knowledgable in helping me navigate through unknown territory while managing my mom's last wishes. They were quick to respond, always offering sound advice and doing so in a manner that made me feel as if they truly cared about my well being while understanding I w...as still grieving my Mom's passing. I highly recommend their services!
