Great experience!

I am so happy I selected Cristina Perez Abelson as my Probate lawyer. She was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend her to anyone who is in need of a Probate lawyer. Cristina provided a clear and thorough explanation of the Probate process, court appearances, court documents and the duties an...d responsibilities of the Administrator. She was thoughtful, professional, personable and translated complex legal issues in easy to understand terms. The estate was quite complex, with multiple properties and numerous heirs, but Cristina managed the process seamlessly. She was instrumental during the process of selling my Dad’s properties and worked tirelessly with attorneys in other states as we had to probate properties in those states. Cristina was always positive and responsive to our many needs.

Depth and breadth of experience and expertise

I have needed a lawyer a couple of times in the past few years, once to revise my trust and another time to deal with a tenant issue. Both times the lawyers at Abelson Perez Law, primarily Cristina Abelson-Perez, were responsive, knowledgeable, and efficient in resolving my issues. The lawyers at thi...s firm have a breadth of experience and expertise. Ms. Perez-Abelson guided me in making sure all the bases were covered for my trust, and then helped to quickly resolve what could have been a very messy situation with an irresponsible tenant who was not meeting her obligations. Our interactions were always professional. Ms. Perez-Abelson is a good listener, intelligent, and committed to meeting her clients needs. I highly recommend Abelson Perez Law.

Very Disappointed

I felt very very disappointed and displeased with the services rendered to me. The actions that she took in handling my case were purely unsatisfactory to me. Her lack of urgency and transparency left me with the feeling that I just threw my money away. I never felt like she was working for me. I fel...t like I just threw my money away. I was very disappointed in her services rendered to me. I truly regret it. In my case, she proved herself to be a very inexperienced Trust Estate/Probate attorney. It felt like I was paying for a lawyer in training.

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.
