Excellent Estate and Trust Attorney!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Colleen Scarola and her staff for my estate planning and trust needs. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Their competence, professionalism, and sincere concern for my circumstances were obvious from the initial appointment. They made sure I knew all of... my options and felt secure in the choices I was making by carefully outlining each stage of the process. They really stood out for their meticulousness and commitment to safeguarding my family's future. Colleen held our hand throughout the entire process. Scarola Law is not just competent but also affordable and trustworthy. A five-star experience indeed!

Ms

Colleen was great. We contacted her to discuss updating our wills and whether we should create a Trust. She was very thorough in answering our questions and patient with us as we worked through some of the decisions we needed to make to complete all of the documents. She is very organized and very kn...owledgeable in estate planning. Colleen took what was expected to be a tedious process and made it simple for us to navigate and complete.

Highly Recommend!

We really enjoyed working with Colleen when putting together our estate documents. She as a great resource, answered all of our questions, and is easy to reach when we have further questions or want to make any changes.

Great experience!

Colleen was a fantastic advocate for us while preparing our will and durable power of attorney! She was very knowledgeable, attentive and thorough! She had everything completed in a very timely manner and was so kind and professional! She was sympathetic to the fact it is difficult to think of the ne...ed for a will when we have such little babies, and she was wonderful! Highly, highly recommend her!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
