Great focused and pragmatic advice/services

Dana and her team were great at getting us through our estate planning in an efficient way, and ensuring we understood any decisions we made (family trust, wills, DPOA and healthcare surrogate) Wholeheartedly recommend her!

Estate Planning, Pet Trusts

Dana was outstanding. We needed special personalized attention for our trust and pet trusts for our cats and dogs. She took lots of time to listen to our wishes and concerns and addressed them thoroughly. She provided exceptional thoughtful solutions to our needs.

COMPETENT, CARING, AND TOP ATTORNEY

We hired Dana to do our will and set up a trust for us. It was apparent at the first meeting that she is very bright, efficient, careful, knowledgeable, and first rate. She also clearly cares about her clients and her reasonable rate shows that caring not money is her motivator. We would recommend Da...na to anyone, at any income level, as a terrific attorney.

Ms. Gerling is very professional

It was a pleasure dealing with Ms. Gerling and her staff. Our questions were taken seriously and answered thoroughly when we had a joint revocable trust drawn up by her.

wonderful advocate for your furry children

We were looking for an attorney who could help us set up a trust for our cats. It was a more hurried process than ideal, given our desire to have it in place before an overseas trip, and the fact that we had no idea what we were doing. We wanted to work with someone who would understand that our cat...s would be no more beloved, had they been human children. We found our way to Ms. Laganella by way of searches related to animal welfare, and she is wonderful-- just what we were looking for. She went through a great deal of trouble to have our assets secured before our trip, and followed up after our return to see if we had any lingering questions. She is informed, patient, and kind. The ironic thing is that she is also my in-laws' attorney. After we made an initial appt. with her, my mother-in-law called to suggest that we consider using her attorney, who was recommended by neighbors, and who my in-laws were happy with. Of course, it was Gerling Law Group. We had just made our way to them via a different search. If you want to protect your babies and need informed assistance from someone kind, you should contact this attorney.
