I contacted Zimmet Law group to create a family trust, will, and medical proxy. The whole process…read morewas really smooth and quick. After I contacted them via email, I had a quick 10 mins call in which they understood my requirements and sent me a form to fill after that. Once I filled the form, the documents were created in a week and official signing process took another 2-3 day. They provided notary service and witnesses as well. Quick and reliable service. FYI, I was using my Hyatt legal plan so I did not have to pay a single penny for their service.

We had an extremely negative experience at Zimmet Law. We worked with the lawyer Debra Hammerman,…read moreas well as Monique Gravely and Jacqueline Constante. We used Zimmet Law to purchase our home in Brooklyn, NY. Besides being generally hard to get in contact with the lawyers, 12 hours before our closing, the lawyers sent us a final Closing Disclosure with over $100,000 in mistakes that they did not catch. There was a mistake in our taxes that they did not catch. The title company they hired also made significant mistakes, leading to them giving us documents with huge mistakes in them 12 hours before the closing. Our lawyer, Debra Hammerman, did not come to our closing and was not present for most it, so we had to sort out all of these issues on our own. There were even more mistakes she didn't catch, and it led to an extremely stressful closing that lasted well over 8 hours. Her employee Monique was rude to me for asking more clarifying questions during the closing, saying we were "going in circles". I don't understand how someone who has made a $100,000 mistake could possibly feel justified in thinking that victim of that mistake might want more validation on other numbers they have created. Furthermore, the paralegal Jackie was looped into conversations for closing details about a week before the closing. I spent 3 days straight emailing her and calling her to try to get answers to questions about the closing, like how the money would be transferred, and she never responded. I confirmed with the front desk that she was not sick or on vacation, and our lawyer Debra Hammerman was also cc'ed on those emails and neither of them ever responded to our emails or calls. I have no idea why they waited until 9:30 PM to give us the final closing documents, when our closing was at 10 am the next day. It was a nightmare. Finally, Debra Hammerman herself provided a POA since one of our purchasers would be out of town at the closing. Despite us filling out the POA as per her instructions, it turned out she hadn't requested addresses of notarized signature witnesses which led to us desperately trying to contact our witnesses during this extremely chaotic closing to get their addresses. Why didn't she request addresses in the POA itself? Pure incompetence is my bet. Finally, the lawyer, paralegal, and all of the staff from Zimmet Law completely forgot to bring up holding money in escrow from incomplete punch list items. It fell by the wayside as we attempted to hammer out all the other mistakes the law firm has made, and it meant that no money was held in escrow as requested while we awaited final punchlist items to be addressed. This was a totally terrible experience for us and I would never recommend this law firm to anyone.

As someone who likes to plan ahead, having an estate plan was very important. After quite a bit of…read moreresearch, I had decided that creating a living revocable trust was the best decision for me. It would be less expensive in the long run and should be easier to manage for those I leave behind. I spoke with a number of estate lawyers about creating these documents and each one of them only spoke about creating a will. When I specifically asked about including a living revocable trust, they all tried to talk me out of it. Then I attended a presentation by Laura Cowan. She clearly explained the importance of having your estate in order regardless of age, the differences between the estate documents, including a will and a living revocable trust and clearly answered everyone's individual questions. I knew that day that she was the estate attorney I had been looking for. I greatly appreciate Laura's intelligence, work ethic, and positivity. However, what I value the most is her method of sharing her knowledge and then letting her clients make the decision regarding what is best for them. Working as a Professional Organizer, I have the privilege of supporting families through the difficult time following the loss of a loved one. I have learned that this process is never easy, but can be so much more challenging if the estate was not in order. I also know that while we all plan to live long healthy lives, tragedy happens; my mother died when I was four, which was completely unexpected. Thanks to Laura, I am confident that I have a plan that will both protect and support my family. Having an estate plan is the best present you can give those you love and Laura Cowan is by far the best estate lawyer I have met!

I reached out to Laura on the suggestion of my sister, who is a law professor, and I could not be…read moremore pleased with the entire process. Laura is extremely knowledgeable and really takes the time to explain the pros and cons of all options. She answers all questions cordially and promptly via email, and in person she is warm and easy going. I would recommend Laura's practice without hesitation.

One of my family elders just got green card through this law firm. Perhaps as an immigration…read moreattorney, helping clients getting a green card is just their daily work. But it is not every lawyer who can make a dead case (like my elder's) come back to life. My elder is a successful foreign businessman who has lived in the United States for 18 years. He had tried various methods for applying for a green card; but for various reasons, he failed a lot. At the worst time, he was even requested by the US government for deportation. We all thought that his case was hopeless. And many lawyers refused to take over his case. Later, around five years ago, he hired this lawyer through a friend's recommendation. To be honest, the lawyers' office is small, however all employees are experienced; we later learned that all the employees have been in the business for nearly 20 years, which is not easy. It took five years for this lawyer to slowly solve the problem of my elder's case and then continue to apply for a green card all the way. This is a very amazing counterattack; it is the good news for our entire family. My elder told me that this law firm is really willing to spend time on his case, while many other law firms can't do this. Although I don't understand the law, my common sense tells me that it is very difficult to succeed in a case that used to be considered as no hope. This law firm is not only very proficient in the law, but also has the patience and heart. I am very grateful for their dedication and help for my family.
