Heather Boyer Samuels

I cannot express enough how grateful I am for Heather and Tara's exceptional guidance throughout the entire probate process. They helped us navigate the complicated task of settling both my stepmother's and father's wills, and their expertise made all the difference in determining homestead eligibili...ty and my ownership of the house. Heather and Tara were patient, thorough, and always available to answer our many questions. Their ability to break down complex legal concepts into clear, understandable terms gave us peace of mind during what could have been an overwhelming experience. Every step of the way, they handled the probate process with professionalism, integrity, and genuine care, which made a difficult time much easier to manage. I highly recommend Heather and Tara for anyone dealing with probate or any legal matters related to estate planning. They are not only fantastic attorneys but also a true advocate for their clients.

We hired this law firm to help get my father on medicaid benefits and some help from the veterans and do a trust and other legal estate planning for my mother. We were with a different lawyer before this lawyer in the same firm. That lawyer blew us off and I would not rate her positively, but then ...we got this young lady, who my mother and father liked and felt comfortable meeting. She was real personable and patient. I feel that this lawyer went out of her way to explain things in a way my mother and father could understand and took pains not to make them feel rushed. I feel that the lawyer was expensive, but you get what you pay for, and I feel that we got real concierge level lawyer service. She always was good about answering our questions, even when she had to get back to us with the answers. She did all new legal documents for my mother and father and talked us through the bank and their issues.

This lawyer was assigned my fathers Medicaid case by the senior partner. She helped us get him on Medicaid and recommended people to help me find him a nursing home. I live in New York so I call and email a lot. She answered my question and treated my father with respect. She always answered my e...mails too. I had a situation where my father needed Medicaid right away--she and her assistant did it in a month. The DCF took a long time to handle my fathers case, and she spoke to the home to make sure he didn't get evicted and found me a lady to check on him and report to me. I can tell it's a busy office there but as a professional myself I am satisfied.

I retained Ms. Samuels to represent my grandmother in a lawsuit against a Boca Raton nursing home, for neglect and improper care. She was malnourished, suffered from bed sores. I gave her pictures and other documentation of my grandmother's condition. She failed to take any actions to rectify the pro...blems. Ms. Samuels seems clueless, and did not seem to know what she was doing. There was no communication, and telephone calls were frequently unanswered, and when they were, it took a long time, and the answers we not useful. She just took my money and did nothing to stop the abuse of my grandmother.
