He passed away the next day. We had no idea what the ex-wife had done while we were out of the hospital room. It was not until we got a Fed Ex from the ex-wife's attorney a week and a half later that we found out she stole the whole estate from underneath us. Our family consulted with Adriana and she immediately knew that we had been victimized and she took on the daunting task of proving to the courts that the this death bed will was NOT our fathers final wishes for his children. She was energized and had spark which is very rare to see in an attorney - especially when her job is overturning a signed will. It is most definitely an uphill battle and she took it head on. As with any very difficult litigation, it took a while to get to where we ended up...but it is results in the end that matter and she pulled us through all the way. She succeeded in getting us to a successful mediation - so successful that the judge who oversaw the mediation told us had he been hearing the case in court he would have decided the case in our favor on the elevator ride up to the courtroom! After that day administrative rights were stripped away from the ex-wife and awarded to my sister so she could properly distribute the estate - the way it was intended to be. It was a very complicated case, and it did take a while to resolve - but in the end our family ended up with a successful probate and Adriana stuck by us the whole way and saw it through until the last "i" was dotted and the last "t" was crossed!!!! AMAZING! Without her, our life's would have been way different...and not in a good way. Our father worked hard to leave his legacy behind to his children....and that was achieved. Thank you Adriana for all your hard work!

If I could give a zero star, I would have selected it- stay away if at all possible. I know not all…read morelawyers are in it for the money, and if they are, at least they have good bedside manners. This person literally tried to take advantage of my 70 year old mother, who is an immigrant, so her knowledge of the court was very minimal, including her English. Due to some unfortunate circumstances, my mother became executor of a will and needed to probate some accounts. She happened to see his ad in the papers, and she entered what would be one of the most stressful periods of her life. This "lawyer" would literally berate her telling her she knows nothing, and string her along for months, accruing and prolonging his fee. In some ways, I feel like he is also a misogynist, because he had the audacity to ask why her husband was not made the executor - it really is none of his business. If she was made the executor, that's all you need to know. At one point, when trying to calculate all the funds, he started to reprimand my mother thinking she was stealing/hiding money from the accounts, when in actuality, the missing money were fees being paid to him - it was my mother who pointed this out to the is "brilliant lawyer". Thankfully, my mom sought out a second opinion, and honestly, the other lawyers were just as confused as my mother as to why this "lawyer" was dragging the process on for so long, when the it could have been done and over with so much more efficiently. My mother finally had enough, and in her courage, spoke out against him, threatening to report him to the boards. He smugly told her to do so, as the most the boards would punish him would be "misconduct." Honestly, this told me he knew what he was doing was wrong. He thought he could string this older lady along, to squeeze as much money out of her as much as possible, and bully her. She even threatened to boycott outside his office, to ensure that no one would use him. After my mother finally spoke up, guess what happened? He finally finished the process. My mother is a kind soul, and she just had to endure a difficult experience that no mother should have to go through. This "lawyer" only added more to the stress. The moment he saw how much were in the accounts, his demeanor changed. With his money grubbing hands, he hoped to take as much as he could, but little did he know, my mom was not to be trifle with. She may seem to know nothing, but she is very intelligent and catches onto things fairly quickly. Her only regret is that wished that she had never call the number on the ad. Use with caution or avoid all together and save yourself a headache. He's very lucky that everything is settled now, because if my mother was still in the midst of probating, we would have definitely filed a complaint against him to the boards. We're just happy this nightmare is over.
