Posted by Gayle | March 09, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Highly Recommend for Estate Planning

Time was of the essence when a terminal cancer diagnosis necessitated immediate action in the creation of a Trust, Will, Power of Attorney for Health Care and all related documentation essential for "end of life" estate planning. This was, indeed, the most difficult time of our lives. Allyson Russo ...was MORE than compassionate, trustworthy and unbelievably proficient in the finalization of affairs. Because of her high credentials, knowledge and professionalism, she was able to complete the entire process, which may have taken an "average" attorney months to complete, within two weeks from the devastating medical diagnosis. In addition, she continued to reach out to us throughout our journey expressing concern and empathy. She has assisted me with issues following my husband's passing as well. I have highly recommended her to others who, also, have been more than pleased. On top of all that, she has the most amazing personality! We were so fortunate to have met her.
