Estate Planning 35%

There are many tools utilized to affect an individual’s estate plan including wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and living wills.

Probate 35%

Probate is a court process designed to ensure that a decedent's assets are distributed to the deceased's loved ones if the deceased has a will or to the deceased's "heirs at law" if the deceased's does not have a will. In a probate the court supervises the administration and distribution of the assets and makes sure that all creditors are paid before distributions to beneficiaries can be made.

Divorce and Separation 30%

A divorce lawyer helps you if you no longer want to be married. Whether you want a legal separation or the marriage ended, divorce lawyers assist you to arrange financial and family matters, typically in a negotiation with your spouse's lawyer. Alimony, child custody, child support, and a fair division of community assets (like who keeps the house or how your checking and savings accounts are divided) are matters that a divorce lawyer is trained to help determine.

I have never met a more honest man!

I met Mr. Friedman at the lowest point in my life. I was a mother to two beautiful children who at the time were 3 and 1. I was in an abusive marriage and knew the only way to raise my children in the way they deserved was to divorce. I had a divorce that dragged on nearly four years (absolutely no r...efection on Mr. Friedman). I have never met an attorney who was as knowledgeable, honest, helpful and compassionate in my life. Mr. Friedman was thrown each and every curve ball imaginable from the other side and he handled himself with dignity and respect and always made me feel that everything would be okay. I am still in contact with him to this day. He is there to give advice and answer any questions. I pray never to have to use him again but I would recommend him without a second thought. He was such a blessing at a time when I needed it most.

Personable, Responsive & Professional

When my mother passed away, I was named co-executor for her estate, which included a Florida property. I was at a loss for how to deal with liquidation of the Florida estate from 1500 miles away, so I asked our attorney in New York for a recommendation. He recommended Steven Freidman, for which I wil...l always be grateful. Steven was personable, responsive and professional, made recommendations to other professionals when necessary, kept things moving when they might have dragged, leading to a fair and timely resolution. If I ever again need an attorney in South Florida, he will be my first call.

Probate and Litigation life savor

Mr. Friedman was my life savor in the midst of one of the most stressful and anxiety producing legal situations of my life. He was always dependable, responsive and willing to answer every little question I had throughout the brutal legal battle involving an estate and ligation issue I was faced with.... Not only did he guide me and help me achieve a very favorable outcome in my situation but I always knew I could count on him and his wife to be there for me to help reduce my anxiety and reassure me throughout the entire process. I couldn't of imagined a better person and attorney than Mr. Friedman to have by my side and fighting this legal battle for me. I highly recommend him for any legal situation a person my be faced with.
