Probate lawyer | Apr 08

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Richard Ehrlich is an intelligent, knowledgable, capable and trustworthy attorney. I would not hesitate to recommend his services to a client in need of Estate Planning or Probate assistance in the Coral Springs area . The reason I am writing this endoresement is not just because Mr. Ehrlich is an authority on Wills, Trusts and Probate matters, but because he combines his skill as an attorney with the highest level of proffessionalism and integrity. It has been a pleasure working with Mr. Ehrlich, not only does he represent his clients well, but he was happy to invest time helping a younger member of the Bar. His practice should be an example to others."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Richard and I have had the pleasure of working together on several matters. As an attorney who solely practices real estate law, I frequently find myself in need of assistance with probate (and estate planning). Richard is the attorney that I entrust the referral of my clients to. He has ablely and effectively represented their interests in preparing wills, trusts and probating their estates. Having an attorney of Richard's knowledge and experience at the ready for my clients' needs has enhanced my practice and I know that Richard will handle your matters with the same efficiency and concern as he treats my clients."
