The attorney, paralegals, and legal assistants were professional, knowledgeable, patient, and attentive throughout the process. Daria, the paralegal dedicated to my matter, was responsive, thorough, and communicative. She did an outstanding job assembling 11 separate documents totaling more than 80 pages. Kendal guided me through the execution of those documents, meeting with me at the firm's office and carefully explaining each one. She also notarized the documents and coordinated the necessary witnesses to finalize my estate plan. Both Daria and Kendal took the time to answer my questions and ensured that every aspect of the process was handled carefully and competently. Peter Antonoplos, the principal attorney handling my representation, was the consummate professional. He demonstrated exceptional skill and a deep knowledge of estate planning, provided meticulous work, and remained responsive to my many questions throughout the process. I received these legal services through the MetLife Legal Plan, and I could not be more pleased with the quality of the representation. I cannot give this team enough praise and recommend them without reservation.

Since this was our first experience with such a project, it was important for us to work with a firm that both understood the legal complexities of the planning and had regularly worked with same-sex couples. Our first consultation with Mr. Antonopolis was a valuable and informative one that made us feel confident about the undertaking. And we very much appreciated his straightforward personal style. We always felt fully supported, understood, and respected. Over the course of gathering the needed information to create our documents, staff members, particularly paralegal Daria Brovenko, were always ready to guide us through the process and provide answers to questions. And at the final signing, we were happy to meet other staff, all of whom made the closing step of our legal journey one that went smoothly and was filled with their warm congratulations. Having these legal protections in place was important for us, and our very positive experience with Antonoplos & Associates played a significant role in providing that peace of mind. We highly recommend their work.

Though financially it was a little more, the feeling i know that its all done by a person i feel took care of me andcmy family member in the best way, you cant out a price on that. Ms. Kelly was professional and knowledgeable. But most importantly she was patient and kind. Our process took an extended period of time for various reasons. But we all rolled with it. Through it all Ms. Kelly remained communicative, understanding and patient. Months later we finally completed the task and we're a little sad that we wouldn't be talking to Ms. Kelly as often lol. This process is not easy, you feel vulnerable about the topic but Ms. Kelly and her firm is definitely the place you want to be held by when completing such an important task in life. Both my family member and I are extremely pleased with the wonderful service and connection we received from Ms. Kelly. Thank you so much.

I needed a family property deed cleared and was promised by Nakia in early 2019 that it would take somewhere between 3-6 months to complete.

Her and everyone who works for her lacks, empathy, understanding of law and anything legal, will lie to you and then avoid you like a plague. It took weeks and sometimes months to get a simple answer or response on status. I'm not only disgusted by her and her team but want to ensure no one hires her ever again. Incompetent is an understatement and not even close to describing their work ethic. CON ARTIST LEGAL GROUP!!!!!

He is readily available to provide legal advice and personal insight. What I like best about David, is that he offers a relationship. Like a thoughtful friend, David follows up and checks in keep my estate plan up to date. I could have gone to another attorney but I can't imagine them caring about my situation as much as David and his dedicated team does.  His assistant Maria is also AMAZINGLY sweet.   If you are looking for estate planning in DC and more importantly an attorney who cares, you should definitely have David do your estate plan and take care of you and your family.

I felt overwhelmed and was afraid to act on some things, realizing there was so much I didn't know or understand. At the same time, I knew I needed to do something. One day, I saw an offer to attend a free seminar on financial planning hosted by Right Size Law, PLLC. One of my best decisions was to attend the seminar. I quickly realized yes, there was a lot I did not know or understand completely, concerning financial planning, protecting estates and long-term care insurance, but the Right Size, PLLC free seminars helped clarify the key points. David explains the differences between wills, trusts, considerations of planning for (and after) retirement, and alternate methods of funding long term health care. During the seminars, David points out differences between the jurisdictions of DC, Maryland, and Virginia. His information is clear, concise and easily understood. David clarifies his point by using everyday examples and scenarios. These seminars helped me to realize I needed to work on my planning sooner than later. Friends suggested I use an online legal tool such as Will and trust or Legal Zoom but I'm glad I did not. As a client of Right Size, PLLC, I still have questions. David is responsive, patient and enlightening. David and I developed a plan unique to me and my needs. I look forward to working with David and Right Size, PLLC for many years to come. As a matter of fact, I have been so impressed with the services offered by Right Size Law, I refer friends to David.
