From our first meeting, he was warm, friendly, and genuinely willing to spend as much time as we needed to understand the details. What impressed us most was his ability to think through scenarios we hadn't even considered.

If you are looking for an attorney who is thorough, patient, and a pleasure to work with, look no further than Michael.

Additionally it is a very tedious and overwhelming task to figure out what to do, assemble all the paperwork, get signatures, and make the whole thing legal. Elizabeth took all the fear and pain out of the process. She is very compassionate, understanding, and organized. She met with us, asked questions, and told us what information we needed. We were able to fill forms out and email them to her, saving us additional visits. We aren't quite finished, but I know we would never have come even close to this point without the guidance of Elizabeth. We're all gonna die one day.

I was scolded, belittled and yelled at by Tom Velladao, because I couldn't follow his 100mph tax speech. Every time I asked a question he seemed to get mire and more worked up. Wait, isn't that a Tax professionals job is, to answer questions? I brought him a return from one of my small businesses to see what/how he would do, and I'm glad I did (my portfolio is in the millions). He basically told me that he couldn't be bothered with my "little" business questions! Little did he know that he lost hundreds of thousands in business from me. What a Jerk! Don't waste your time or money!

Then a close friend of ours was involved in a serious accident, and we realized that a horrible accident without a plan could potentially turn into a nightmare for us.

I have a daughter from a previous marriage, and Matthew was able to talk us through different scenarios and create a a plan that would help keep everything fair should I pass first - something I'd never even thought about! We were also nervous about the cost; was this process going to turn into a never-ending expense?
