Response to survey Request

Attorney Alan Spiegel reviewed a trust that was drawn by a previous attorney and I had questions and changes. I met with him and left the current trust which he looked over and directed how to make the changes I wanted by mail. I then met with him again to review and he answered questions. Mr. Spieg...el is a pleasure to work with and is professional, competent, friendly and when we left (my daughter was with me), we were relieved and pleased that I chose the McLario law firm.

A super attorney!

Attorney Spiegel prepared trusts for me and my spouse. Comprehensive and in language easy to understand. He made amendments easy. I have nothing but respect for this firm.

Family Trust

Al reviewed our will from when we were first married and setup a new trust to protect our now adult children. Al also worked with our financial advisor to help with the transition of information with our investments. On the day of signing, Al reviewed all the forms in non-lawyer terms so we understoo...d everything he setup. Al was very professional and once we got our end taken care of everything went quickly.

Wise decisions led to successful outcome.

Attorney Spiegel assisted me with a difficult and frustrating complication affecting my divorce. He simplified the case so as to bring clarity to the most important points affecting the outcome, thereby resulting in a fair and successful judgement. I appreciated his honesty, integrity, and wise use o...f time. He has a relaxed, yet very professional demeanor that helped me deal with the difficulties of facing trial.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
