    This review is a bit overdue. Originally we got into touch with Maria to do our living trusts just…read morebefore the Covid pandemic hit. She was one of a few attorneys we were considering. She seemed attentive, pleasant, thorough, and on top of it. She answered all our questions very thoroughly. Once the pandemic hit, we put our search for a trust attorney on hold because it was just a weird time for everyone and we basically put our lives on hold in general and since we were still in the early stages of our search for an attorney, it seemed a reasonable thing to do as effects of the pandemic played it out. We got back in touch with Maria in 2022 as we picked up our search for a trust attorney again. Maria originally had been our top pick before we paused the first time, but Maria's style had completely changed. I guess her business had picked up a lot because of the pandemic with many people concerned about protecting their property and legacies. It's possible this is what caused the noticeable shift in her attitude. Her emails were brusque and she often ignored questions. When she did answer questions, her answers seemed very generic or just completely off base, like it was copypasta or she perhaps didn't even read the questions thoroughly before answering. She even addressed me by the wrong name in an email once (called me Sarah). I was a bit taken aback but good-naturedly brought it to her attention and even included a smile emoji to let her know there were no hard feelings. This was right before we were about to sign a contract and I wanted to make sure she had the right file and the right clients in mind. She didn't even apologize or address it, just blew it off entirely. I was willing to overlook it, but my business partner put his foot down and decided Maria was not the right choice for us. Like me, he noticed the change in her and her increasing lack of professionalism the more we interacted, so we cut ties before any contract was signed. Good thing because we ended up with a different attorney who was not only more affordable but more agreeable and helpful. Edited in reply to Maria Jonsson's response: ZERO free work was provided by her firm. Back in the beginning of 2020, we filled out her generic questionnaire, there was one Zoom introductory call, and a few follow-up emails with general questions about the process. How else are we supposed to decide how to pick an attorney for something as important as our trusts if we don't engage with her and ask questions first? You don't pick an attorney by pulling a name out of a hat! Ask yourself if an attorney in business ever goes around doing "free work" for random people who haven't signed any type of contract and you will arrive to the logical conclusion that not only is Maria rude, she is also a LIAR. When we actually did hire an attorney, we started from scratch. The attorney we chose also had us fill out a questionnaire, did a Zoom introductory call, and answered all our questions as well before we signed a contract. Just standard professional engagement when you look to bring on a new client, not "free work." Maria is clearly either high on her own supply, or she still has me confused with Sarah!

    My family and I had such a wonderful experience working with Maria. She is very knowledgeable, and…read moreher guidance really helped us understand all of our options and other considerations we hadn't thought of. We sought her expertise for Power of Attorney letters and everything went well. Maria was communicative, prompt, and we had two Zoom meetings to get the POA letters completed. During our meetings Maria explained things with great detail and my parents felt very assured afterwards. I myself felt assured as well. Upon picking up the letters, I was impressed by the fact that little post its were added to ensure we knew where to sign (as we opted to go elsewhere to get things notarized). Overall, I would highly recommend working with Maria and am extremely thankful for her work and services.

    I was left with quite a mess as the Trustee of my mom's estate, which was a journey long before I…read morecalled Justin. My situation was an 8-year stint which involved a mom with Alzheimer's, a sister out of state, a house with an encumbrance that my sister and I inherited, a court date, buying my sister out with an enormous loan, lots of paperwork and documents, and a property tax situation. Justin handled this entire process with professionalism. He is very down to earth and such a wonderful person, that it made a complicated matter much more doable. We needed other professionals as well -- a new trust CPA, a property tax expert, and a hard money lender -- and he referred us to all of these nice quality people, who have been incredibly helpful. This made everything easier as we were, many times when necessary, on an email thread together, working symbiotically, which simplified everything. Having worked with attorneys as a court reporter for many years and also having hired a quirky attorney prior to Justin who handled previous matters, moving on and hiring Justin on a fairly complicated matter was a delight and actually resolved some issues that couldn't seem to get resolved with the previous attorney. I always felt confident that he had my back and that "he's got this." Along with being a very professional attorney, I really like him as a person. Although most everything is coming to a close, with a few last hurdles that my husband and I will handle, I will miss talking to Justin! Lastly, how I found him was on Yelp, and what convinced me to hire Justin were all of the other wonderful reviews from his past clients. Hire Justin because you won't be disappointed! :-)

    Mr. Burstein is by far the best, most caring, and most honest attorney I've ever had the pleasure…read moreof working with in my 65 years, It recently dawned on my to get my affairs in order and have a living trust in place. I was very lucky to have some close friends recommend Mr, Burstein's law firm. It's the only call I needed to make, After one short phone conversation I knew he was the right man for the job. Creating a living trust seems like a simple concept on the surface, but there are tons of details that need to be worked out and understood by us, the clients. Mr. Burstein takes his own time to make sure we understand the process every step of the way, even having an in person session with us at the end to make sure all is understood properly. And that we clients know how to proceed properly after the In addition to being a great person and attorney, Mr. Burstein has an amazing staff of 2 who take care of the behind the scenes activity, Major kudos to assistants Donovan and Kodey. Promptly answering gobs of my questions on the phone over a several week period, Explaining all kinds of things to me ranging from property title transfers to funeral arrangements, I've never had the phone or any question go unanswered when calling this office and I've never been unable to talk to Mr. Burstein when necessary. Highly recommended, 5 stars for sure!

I also have had the great pleasure of working with Debora Golshani who works with Michaels office and she is a doll. We have had the privilege of giving a few educational seminars for our clients and to the open public. It is so rewarding when you know you are helping people and giving them huge peace of mind when it comes to these important life plans and preparations.
