Exceptional Attorney

Mr. Baskin provides the best estate plans in the state! My husband and I hired the Law Office of Robert M. Baskin to prepare our estate plan and Mr. Baskin far exceeded our expectations. We had an existing estate plan that we needed to update. Mr. Baskin prepared a Certification of Trust, a Trust,... Wills, Durable Power of Attorney and a Health Care Directive for both my husband and me that was so much better than the existing one we had. He also prepared a grant deed to put our property in the name of our trust and even took care of recording it for us. At our first appointment, he spent the time we needed to explain everything to us. He was patient with all of the questions we had and never made us feel rushed. When we had changes we wanted to make after our appointment, he was so accomodating and told us it was fine because he wanted our estate plan to be perfect for us. He had our entire estate plan completed in one week and we didn't even ask him to rush. His assistant was so very helpful and sweet. His office manager notarized our documents for us and she was so delightful and professional. Everyone at his office made us feel like they were there to help us. If we ever have any legal needs in the future, we will definitely use the Law Office of Robert M. Baskin.

An Excellent Attorney

Over the past two decades, I have worked with Robert Baskin and two of the firm's other attorneys, Arthur Liberty and Christopher Fortunati, to handle a number of legal matters for me and my children, including estate planning and probate, two successful EEO retaliation lawsuits against the Federal g...overnment and a successful lawsuit against the executor of a relative's estate. I was highly-pleased with the outcome every time. Mr. Baskin and his firm's attorneys are highly competent, ethical and professional and will not accept a case if they don't believe in its merits or are not confident of a successful outcome. I recommend the firm without reservation.

Trust Administration and Probate

Robert M. Baskin helped administer my mother and father's trust. I give him an A++ rating as an attorney and as a person. He is highly experienced, extremely knowledgeable, very competent and compassionate with his clients. He works tirelessly and tediously overseeing perplexing and countless docu...ments in a timely manner. His understanding of the law is admirable. Calls and emails are responded to immediately. His litigation skills are superior and he is well respected by the judges and lawyers in the probate court. Nothing slips through the cracks. I could not recommend Robert M. Baskin any more highly. I would recommend him to anyone in search of a trust lawyer. He gets the job done efficiently with integrity the best results. I could not be more satisfied with Mr. Baskin's work ethic and professionalism.

The Best

The legal assistance provided to me by the Law Office of Robert M. Baskin was knowledgeable, professional, timely, and sensitive in a very difficult and emotional time. Robert went above and beyond all my expectations, and was dedicated to making sure my mothers wishes were carried out. All of this w...as accomplished courteously and honestly against aggressive and unscrupulous opposition. Robert personally put in extra effort to kept my interests forefront. The time spent going over the financial minutia and deliberately obfuscated facts and figures brought to light hidden aspects of the estate that otherwise may have gone unnoticed; making a huge difference in the final outcome. Everyone on the staff was helpful, knowledgeable, efficient and a pleasure to work with. I am very pleased to have chosen Robert to represent me, and will always return to his firm for any and all future estate or probate issues. I highly recommend the Law Office of Robert M. Baskin -absolutely the best!
