SUCCESSFUL EXPERIENCE
Mr. Sokoloff prepared all necessary documents for estate planning for my husband and myself. Our consult visit was thorough and Mr. Sokoloff made technical information understandable for us, which enabled us to make necessary and important decisions correctly. When we came back for our follow up visit to sign documents, everything went smoothly and was very professional and efficient. We highly recommend Mr. Elliot Sokoloff.

Highly recommend Elliot Sokoloff and his firm
I was referred to Elliot Sokoloff for a hit and run car accident. I am absolutely pleased with the results of winning the settlement case by Elliot’s hardworking help. Elliot is very knowledgeable, professional, has good organizational and communication skills as he kept me informed throughout the the entire length of my case. He was honest from the start with an honest service, helpful in giving advice, responsive and flexible around my work schedule to come in to sign documents and to schedule phone calls, patient in answering all my questions and concerns, and very persistent with my case to make sure myself, the injured, got what was needed. Along the way I also got assistance from his Co-Director Seth Weinstein who was also a pleasure to work with, very kind and caring. It was also great to work with Nancy that assisted in gathering my documents to get signed and notarized. This was my first time using an attorney and I would like to give my highest recommendation for the firm who I will be reaching out to in the future for their other services!

Excellent Experience
Elliot was very thorough and understanding while reviewing and updating my will. He brought up great suggestions and was overall very helpful.

A caring and professional attorney.
Mr. Elliot Sokoloff is a very professional, knowledgeable and caring attorney who I have called upon three times for his services each time set me down and explained step by step why this was the best direction to take saving me literally thousands of dollars. He takes time to explain everything in detail and answered all my questions and as stated before I have used in the past and will continue to call upon him in the future if needed.

We had no idea how much was involved in creating a will, a living will, a power of attorney and what was needed for all these documents. Mr. Sokoloff walked us through each document and taught us exactly how things worked and why each was needed. We could not be happier with our final results and feel very fortunate we trusted the reviews we read before selecting this law office for our needs. The process was a true learning experience and was well done by Mr. Sokoloff and his staff. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend Elliot Sokoloff and Weinstein, PA

Great choice for legal work
I have been putting off updating all our Will, POA and other legal documents. I finally picked up the phone to make an appointment. Elliot Sokoloff answered and I had an appointment in no time. He immediately put me at ease and I was very comfortable in discussing what I needed done. He is very knowledgeable in all areas I needed help with. He took diligent notes and really listened to my concerns. In no time at all I received a call that all our documents were ready for us to sign. When my husband and I went in everything was explained at length. He had remembered all I had requested down to the minute details. We are extremely satisfied with all that was done and definitely will go back if ever we need any more legal work done.

Eliot did a great job getting my will and power of attorney papers FINALLY done! I had been procrastinating for years assuming it would be a time consuming pain in the neck. Eliot was highly organized and made completing this important task easy and stress free.

Professional, attentive, detailed.
This is the second time I've used the service of Mr Sokoloff and once again, I was extremely pleased with the service rendered. All of the legal wording in the documents that I provided, was explained in detail to the point of what was going to be too my benefit and what wasn't in my favor before signitures were applied. As a matter of fact, it was even pointed out in said paperwork that it would be best to contact the institution and party involved concerning some of the wording in the documents that didn't make much sense to Mr Sokoloff. This was important because the instructions for signature(s) indicated that ALL documents requiring it must be signed to affirm agreement between both parties. If I didn't have his guidance, I would have been in a world of trouble. He is and will always be the attorney of chose for assistance in any legal matter in his field of expertize.
