Client Stories

Our Success in Their Own Words
    "I was very happy with all of Mr. Parisi’s work."
    Mr. Parisi represented me in a very complicated New York trusts and estates litigation matter. The issues involved numerous problems with the actions of certain trustees, as well as with the accountings they presented of the various trusts and estate of my late husband. After extensive work by Mr. Parisi and his firm, including an appeal to the Appellate Department, we obtained a Decision in my favor in excess of $1,000,000. The remaining issues were then also settled in a very favorable manner. I was very happy with all of Mr. Parisi’s work, time, and advice and I would absolutely hire him again!

    "Gerard was very helpful to me."
    Gerard was very helpful to me. I had a difficult litigation matter. He was very attentive to details and responsive to all my questions, which were many.

    "I highly recommend him!"
    Mr. Parisi represented me in an Article 81 Guardianship proceeding so that I could help my daughter with her general and business matters. I was very happy with the legal services and advice that were provided by him and his office. I highly recommend him!
    - B.
    "I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to assist me."
    I would like to say thank you for the amazing work you did for me. I knew very little about the situation I had been put in. You not only informed me about every step, but also went above and beyond to analyze the case and assist me … You were always available whether it be a weekday or weekend, which helped a great deal due to my busy schedule. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to assist me given my situation! Thank you again for all the help!
    - N.D.
    "He was always very informative and helpful."
    Gerard handled my father’s estate. He was always very informative and helpful, and his fees were very reasonable.
    - P.F.
    "Thank you, Gerard, for representing me."
    I was the trustee of my mother’s Trust in NY worth over $500,000. When my mother got sick and moved to North Carolina my siblings there had her sign a new Trust. Gerard fought to keep the original trust in place and I remained as her trustee. Gerard also prepared the accounting of all of my actions taken as Trustee and represented me when some of my siblings objected to my handling of the trust. Gerard protected me against the ridiculous accusations my siblings made against me, and I received my inheritance under the trust, as well as my Trustee Commissions. Thank you, Gerard, for representing me.
    - K.B.
    "Gerard helped make a very hard situation a little easier for me."
    Gerard helped make a very hard situation a little easier for me. My mother passed away unexpectedly without a will. Her second husband was in significant debt and was raising several issues about my mother’s estate. My mom also owned a business that he ran so the issues were all very complex. Gerard first helped get me appointed as the Administrator of my mom’s estate rather than her second husband. He then handled all of the issues between the estate, the creditors, and the second husband and we had great results throughout. I would strongly recommend using Gerard knowing that others can have the same experience I did working with Gerard during such a hard time!
    - A.M.
