My mother passed away 2 1/2 years ago. The attorney who wrote her Trust and Will had retired, but…read morestill reachable. He suggested we get in touch with Ed Reda. Boy am I glad we did! From the first day we met until the closing of my mother's estate, he always responded quickly when we reached out with questions or concerns. Little did either of us know how challenging the journey would be. When one of the family members became difficult and demanding, he handled it very calmly and with diplomacy. All the while having a good sense of humor with the rest of us. If you ever need an attorney for family law or settlements, reach out to Ed. He and his assistant, Joy, know what they're doing and are willing to do what it takes to get the estate taken care of from beginning to end smoothly. Thank you!

We needed to update our will and living trust due to some changes over the past several years, and…read morecontacted Margaret for her counsel. After the initial consult we realized our old documents were completely inadequate, and decided to revoke the old trust and have Margaret develop a new suite of documents to replace them (new living trust, power of attorney, will, etc). She walked through each document in detail so we fully understood what was contained in them. It was absolutely worth the time and effort, and we are now very satisfied and much more confident in the new legal documents. We also know we can rely on Margaret for future guidance. Note that she is not the cheapest lawyer out there, but keep in mind the old axiom "you get what you pay for".

Margaret contacted them all and either eradicated them or negotiated a settlement for a much reduced amount. She walked me through the entire process...explaining everything...I couldn't have chose a better lawyer by my side. I highly highly reccomend The Law Office of Margaret Szymansky!!!

I was referred to Alex Michalakos from a good friend who also was extremely happy with his…read moreservices. Not only is he an extremely competent attorney he is one of the very few trustworthy ones. I solicited his services when I had a scrupulous tenant with a bottom feeder attorney trying to extort 10 grand from me for things like missing light bulbs and window coverings that didn't meet their liking. I was in a bind because my first attorney David Lewin was completely incompetent and left me scrambling to find a new attorney. The abridged version of the 3 year ordeal is he put together such a well documented and brilliant defense in the end the judge made them drop the case and walk away. Because I was so happy with his services I used him again for a different condo and didn't trust the attorneys the board hired for the building sale. My decision was confirmed when he found several missed items by their attorneys and saved the owners thousands in closing costs. My condo manager was so impressed with his work she took his information for any future legal matters. I recommend Mr. Michalakos with the highest praises and will continue to work with him in the future.
