About

Our objectives are accomplished through a committed concern for the client’s needs and priorities. We pride ourselves on our personal sensitivity and the prompt attention we give our clients, characteristics that are imperative when practicing in the field of trusts and estates.

 

Our seasoned attorneys have fostered close relationships with a diverse group of clients over many years of practice. We handle all aspects of estate planning and estate and trust administration for individuals and fiduciaries, who own or handle assets and businesses ranging in size from modest to very extensive. As a small New York City based firm, we have the ability to give our clients the care and attention they deserve without being restricted by the constraints and business-related demands of a large law firm. 

​

Our clients know their attorneys and their attorneys know and care about them. They appreciate our devotion to their needs and the caring and thoughtful approach we bring to their concerns. Having practiced exclusively in trusts and estates for decades, we have extensive experience in estate planning and the administration of estates and trusts of all sizes and types. Our practice includes the creation of wills, trusts and other estate planning instruments, as well as documents pertaining to all aspects of gifting, health care and disability. We are knowledgeable in estate and generation-skipping transfer taxation, business succession, retirement planning, and the use of sophisticated tax savings vehicles, including those utilizing insurance and charitable giving. We represent clients in proceedings in the Surrogate’s Court and before the Internal Revenue Service and the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance.

 

Our attorneys make every effort to develop long-standing relationships with clients, and we bring a problem-solving approach, professional sophistication and personal sensitivity to the legal issues that concern them.
