Trusts and Estates

I have a fairly complicated estate that includes property and securities, and I also have an adult child with special needs. Barbara Sonin was wonderful to work with for the review and restatement of my estate trust and my special needs trust for my daughter. She took time to get to know me. The fee was stated up front, and there were no extra add-ons to the fee.

Barbara Sonin helped us with a living trust and will. She was very experienced, knowledgeable, and was great at answering our many, many questions. Her staff was also very welcoming and friendly on the phone. My husband and I can easily recommend Sonin Law.

Setting up a trust can be a tedious, stressful and frustrating experience. That is why it is so important to find the right attorney to work with. Barbara Sonin was definitely “the right attorney” for my wife and I, and we highly recommend her to others! Barbara displayed a high level of professionalism, knowledge and skill, and the ability to listen to our needs and concerns, and then offer solutions. She makes your concerns, “her” concerns! She definitely went the extra mile!

Before we enlisted Barbara’s expertise, we had written our own living trust along with a number of amendments trying to address some of the special needs of our children including an amendment to my father’s trust. Barbara listened to our needs, asked the appropriate questions, and quoted us a price that seemed quite fair. Her extensive knowledge led to many safeguards being built into our new trust along with an amendment to Dad’s trust. We give her our highest possible recommendation.
