Excellent Estate Planning Lawyer

Steve Zipper did an excellent job for us. He listened to us and understood what we wanted. He provided guidance on tax planning and protecting our children. He explained clearly the complicated language in the documents. We appreciated that he and his staff were able to create the documents so qui...ckly.

Charges to much and not experianced in estate taxes

I went to Steven Zipper with a simple probate for my mother’s house. This is a probate that the lawyer that I switched to charged me $3,000.00. Steven performed some work on the probate documents and talked to my accountant. My accountant recommended filing a 706 form. Steven stated that he was not a... tax attorney and could not recommend whether to file a 706 or not. At the only meeting I had with him, Steven told me that I did not need to pay until probate was closed so I did not check his bills for four months. I checked the October bill and it was up to $10,164.30. This is for a probate that should have cost about $4,000 total. I immediately canceled our relationship and found another lawyer. Steven Zipper had my bill up to $12,969.20 in Dec 2016 a few months after I fired him. He kept adding to the bill even after I fired him. My new lawyer told me to just pay the bill and write him off as a lesson learned.
