My wife, Kim, and I, needed to update our wills. We had met Melvin socially so we set up a meeting to discuss our estate wishes. It is not something you look forward to, but I have to say, Melvin made it an enjoyable experience. Plus he explained everything in our language. He’s the kind of lawyer you want to do business with. And his assistant, Stephanie, is an added bonus! We feel very confident that our plans are in order and we will remember the experience in a positive way.

Melvin assisted me with settling my mother's estate. He was very attentive to my needs, and he made sure that all my questions were not only answered, but that I also had an understanding of the next steps and processes that were going to occur. Melvin and his staff are very personable, and it was such a pleasure working with them.

My husband and I worked with Mel and his team for Estate planning and living wills. This was our first experience and I was pleased with his professionalism, knowledge, and organizational skills. He and his staff were kind, responsive and well equipped to answer any question we had about legal issues. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a lawyer in the area for these types of services.
