Brendan is the breath of fresh air that the legal profession needs. He is earnestly trying to help you through conversations and processes that are not easy. Having end of life conversations and preparing the family for that time is a special skill. Because of the work that Brendan did for our family, when the time came, all was in order. It would have taken years to resolve estate issues but for the fact that Brendan was able to persuade our family to put things in order. He is very knowledgeable regarding the estate laws in Massachusetts and I highly recommend him without reservation. A working relationship between you and Brendan would be mutually beneficial in that you would meet a lawyer that becomes part of your family and treats you like family.

Ward Family Law helped my wife and I design a will and trust catered to our family needs. As a professional that works directly with estate planning attorneys on a weekly basis, we were beyond impressed with the work Brendan did with us. He truly went over and above. I will continue to recommend Brendan to my friends family and clients for all of their family law needs.

Words cannot express how happy I am with Brandon's service's! By far the Best Estate Planner I have ever met.

I highly recommend Brendan and would not hesitate referring him to anyone I know!!! A++++++++

My Dad recently passed away and I needed to find a lawyer for my Mom to set up the estate planning and such. This being what I thought may be difficult as I live three states away. Well I googled top rated lawyers in Lynn and read the reviews on Brendan and we made the appointment to meet with him. From the moment of introductions to this day he has made the whole daunting process so easy and made what could have been so difficult feel simplistic in the best way possible. He answered every question clearly for us no matter how trivial it may have seemed. I couldn't ask for a better person or lawyer to have by my Moms side. We both highly recommend him.
Review
Brendan helped our family navigate thru a difficult process involving our elderly parents during their decline. His vast knowledge and expertise in estate planning and family law, in addition to his patience, caring and understanding of the situation, gave us great comfort that we were with the best lawyer for our needs. I would highly recommend Brendan to family members, friends and clients alike.

I contacted Robin Gorenberg in the midst of the pandemic to update my will, trust, healthcare proxy and power of attorney. She responded in a timely manner to all questions, and thoroughly researched prior documentation, discovering an important prior omission. She also provided helpful referrals for in-person signing and consultation. I highly recommend her and hope to return to her in the future if necessary.
Review
Robin Gorenberg has been resourceful, flexible and intelligent, helping us create our respective Wills, Health Care Proxies and Powers of Attorney. Our requirements were not straightforward, having married late in life with different sets of children and grandchildren. She gave us advice remotely, was patient with our questions, and emailed and mailed us the final documents that we needed, in good time and at reasonable cost. If you’re looking for a good lawyer, for wills or anything, we’d happily recommend Robin.
Review
Attorney Gorenberg has developed the estate plan for my family and completed accompanying documents, including trust, health proxies, power of attorney, wills, property deeds and others. Throughout the process she provided clear vision, logical explanations, prompt written summaries of our conversations. She was flexible in addressing any requested changes in response to any new information. Robin was sensitive to some peculiarities in our family situation. I would not hesitate recommending her to my friends.
Review
We hired Robin Gorenberg to complete our estate planning work in early 2019. We had received the recommendation from my company’s General Counsel. While he had not used Robin personally, he did have a number of colleagues that provided very good reviews related to her work. We found the process to be very easy with Robin as she guided us through all of the various options citing pro’s and con’s of taking certain steps along the way. She was very good at explaining technical concepts in layman’s terms and providing recommendations, but not coming across as overly pushy in terms of her recommendations. Her final work product was very timely and fully complete and her fees were fair for the high quality work. My wife and I would highly recommend her for Estate Planning counsel and will continue to utilize her services as the need arises in the future.
Review
I first procured the legal services of Robin Gorenberg several years ago, when both my parents were still living. I don't know what we would have done without her expertise in Estate Planning. Her knowledge and compassion helped us through a very confusing time. I called upon Robin again when my mother was being admitted into Nursing Home Care. Robin referred me to an Elder Law Attorney immediately. Thankfully, I did not need his formal services in the end, but he was just as kind and experienced as she is. And, by the way, he is a very well-known attorney in his field, so needless to say, Robin has a fantastic network of trusted colleagues in the top of their fields, as she is. I just worked with her a few months ago for Estate Planning for me and my husband. I was under a deadline, and despite how busy Robin is, she turned around the documents in record time, just because that is the kind of person she is. She does not hesitate to help people, and she is always accessible. Lastly, let me reassure anyone who is worried about breaking the bank to hire an attorney. Robin is very fair and honest. She will explain and itemize all fees and alert you of any changes. This is not do-it-yourself work - you need a legal professional, and I strongly recommend Robin Gorenberg for anyone needing Estate Planning Services. Thank you!!

They seem highly qualified. However, I sent 3 emails thru the portal, another email to the business manager ( address within web site) and left 2 voicemails over the past 6 weeks. No response from any of them. I surmise, correctly or incorrectly, that they don't need or want additional work. I do appreciate learning this know vs after I have already retained them.
Review
Enthusiastically recommend! Their professionalism and humanity take what can be a difficult subject and make it so much easier to process.
Review
Scott was tremendously helpful as we sought a solution for my brother who needed support. The family wanted to insure that he would be cared for after our parents were gone and Scott helped us think through the best ways to arrange for his care. We are extraordinarily grateful for his expertise in trusts and estate planning and his firm's ongoing care in this delicate matter.
Review

Review
A very thorough and easy to understand tutorial on wills & trusts, estate planning and everything involved in that process! Also, it's free advice...what's not to like? Even if you are familiar with the topic (as I am, having served as my own father's personal representative) there is still a wealth of information to be had. Thank you Mr. Bernstein, I'm glad I signed up for this course!
Review
The information provided in the sessions was very informative and easy to understand. I recommend anyone that does not have a will or trust take this course before you learn the hard way....as I did. My husband and I did not have a will when he passed. Probate is long and expensive. Protect your family before something happens.
Review
The 5 part email series on Wills and Trusts was very easy to follow and understand. The emails were written in plain English and very informative. We definitely gained some useful insight on the planning process.
Review
Joel did an excellent job of explaining all the intricacies of the process and addressed all questions I had. He made the decision making process much easier. Response time was immediate and the preparation of papers and follow through was thorough and complete. Very happy and comfortable with the outcome.
Review
My wife Lynn & I cannot say enough about the positive experience we had dealing with Joel & his staff! Having procrastinated long enough & being highly recommended, we took the plunge & could not be more satisfied! From start to finish, everything was explained in detail & tailored to our particular needs. Take my advice, if you are considering Estate Planning, call Joel & make an appointment, you will not be disappointed....

We have been going to Beliveau Law Group, and working with David Beliveau, for almost 13 years now for all our legal needs, and we highly recommend them to anyone. It started off with having a will and other legal documents put together given we were starting a family and buying a house. Mary Hart, Beliveau Law Group's real estate lawyer, worked with us in taking care of all the paperwork when buying the house and selling our previous house. In the years since then, we have made changes to some of our legal documents where Dave Beliveau has been terrific in meeting with us to get the needed changes done. We have also been working with David over the years in setting up all our assets in a family trust. David is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to tax law in Massachusetts and advising us in the best way to set up our assets. We also have been using Beliveau Law Group to do our taxes over the years, which has been a huge help. And recently, David helped us out in a pinch in a couple ways... first in summer 2020 (along with Mary Hart) when we were purchasing a house in Maine, and second in reviewing a legal document for a business situation I was getting into where after his review it gave me a much better sense of comfort in signing that document. David's breadth of knowledge and the range of support his law office provides has been such a terrific resource for us in meeting all our legal needs over the years, and we look forward to continuing to work with David and his office as we soon head into our retirement years.

Beliveau Law Group, LLC was recommended to me about three years ago. At that time, I was seeking assistance with estate planning and trusts. Dave Beliveau and his group of highly qualified attorneys exceeded my expectations, and I continue to rely on their expertise for an array of legal matters. Dave personally addresses each client's needs, listens carefully, and prepares solid advice and recommendations. Dave and his group of attorney's are well-versed in ever-changing estate laws, rules and regulations, and they actively convey pertinent information onto their clients in an effort to best meet their client's needs. Emails and phone calls to this group are responded to in a timely manner, and their cost is both fair and reasonable. I am grateful for the unparalleled level of service I have received from the Beliveau Law Group, and I highly recommend this law group with no hesitation.
Review
David Beliveau has helped my family for years in setting up a will and trusts. His attention to detail is incredible. He truly knows the ins and outs of his work. I would recommend him to anyone. His office is also outstanding.
Review
The Beliveau Law Group was outstanding in its services. They were compassionate, understanding and helpful in guiding us through the process of preparing an estate tax return for my mother who recently passed. They were there to answer all our questions and explain the intricate process of filing this type of return. I would highly recommend using this firm for your estate needs.
Review
In 2020 we updated our estate documents with Beliveau Law Group. It was a complete and thorough review. Even with COVID-19 restrictions during the initial phases, Margaret Cross-Beliveau, Esq. was very responsive. I chose her because professionally I know her well. I am in a position to refer clients to her firm and all have been very satisfied with her professional and knowledgeable responses over the years. While pricing can vary significantly for estate planning attorneys, we found her services to be exactly what we needed at the right price.

My wife and I could not be more pleased with the Morena Law Office and our Estate Planning. The level of knowledge and guidance Attorney Joseph Morena provided us was invaluable. As a Married couple with children, we gained the most important thing, Peace of Mind. Knowing that our estate and wishes will be managed properly due to Attorney Morena's planning, offered us a great deal of relief. He was thorough, and took the time to meet with us several times. He reviewed all aspects of our estate. His level of professionalism and knowledge of his craft is second to none. Linda Campbell, his office manager, is extremely pleasant and could not be more helpful during this process. On behalf of my Family, we cannot thank you enough for the service and peace of mind you have provided us! Sincerely, David & Michelle DeBonis
Review
Morana Law Office was excellent to work with setting up trusts for my father living in Massachusetts. I interviewed multiple firms in the greater Boston area over the phone and quickly knew that Morana Law Office was the right choice. Working with Joe and Linda, their level of professionalism, detail, patience and communication is top notch. An additional challenge that Joe and his team handled successfully was coordinating with my father in state and myself living out of state. Joe was able to turn a complex and tedious process into a simple set of transactions handled remotely through a combination of online and face to face meetings. Joe and Linda strive to know you as a client and you too will get to know them as caring people and advocates for your law-related needs.
Review
We worked with Joe recently to setup a family Trust. We had some unique aspects due to the international nature of our set-up. Joe was very helpful and thorough in explaining all intricacies and aspects of law, in a manner that a person without training in law could easily understand and decide about the best options available to meet the goals of the Trust that we were looking to set-up. In addition, due to the COVID-19 issue, we did this partly with virtual meetings and partly with F2F meetings (with appropriate distancing measures). All along the way, Joe (and his team) were very friendly and flexible. It worked so well and perfect! Many thanks, Joe! Karthi (and family)
Review
Joe and his team were wonderful to work with. We were traveling for the first time without our children and needed an estate plan completed in a short amount of time so that we knew if anything were to happen, there was a plan for the kids and our assets. Joe and his team accepted the challenge and we're happy to say met the deadline without sacrificing attention to detail. They walked us through the process, answered all of our questions, and ensured we arrived to each meeting well prepared to avoid any delays. I would highly recommend Morana Law for all of your estate planning.
Review
I had a crisis situation during COVID 19. My husband was admitted to the hospital and we had no Power of Attorney or Trust. Attorney Morana worked with me and offered to visit my husband in ICU to get these documents done. During this crisis situation, Attorney Morana and his assistant, Linda, worked around the clock to provide us with the documents we needed and peace of mind. I highly recommend Morana Law firm in Andover, MA.

Kim has been a great atty since my brothers death in Oct of 2020. While during COVID has delayed many of the court processes this law firm that's outside their control but she has kept me in the loop along the way. I highly recommend. She's knowledgeable and her staff and associates are people who aren't just out there for your money. They have genuine interest in your family matters. They have also been able to cater to a COVID environment. I've been working with this Law Firm predominantly from another state and you wouldn't notice.
Review
I wish I knew where to begin heaping on praise! Kimberly Butler Rainen, along with her staff, are intelligent, thoughtful and professional. I am so happy to have had their help. My closest friend passed away with no will and Kim took care of all issues surrounding probate and settling of the estate. In doing so, she treated me as a friend, making an unpleasant situation bearable. She was always available to answer questions and she took the time to give thoughtful, thorough explanations. Fees were entirely reasonable, but the respect with which everything was handled was what truly stood out. I would recommend The Law Offices of Kimberly Butler Rainen to anyone without hesitation.
Review
Kim and her team helped us with estate planning, and were so patient and professional throughout the process! Kind, knowledgeable, and made us feel so comfortable with huge life decisions. I would recommend this firm to anyone.
Review
We were recommended to Kimberly by a will attorney as our mother needed a trust set up. We had been begging her for years to get this done and finally she decided to do it. As with a lot of older adults making a change in their life can be overwhelming. Understanding all the legal jargon, do's and do not's and just the entire process is tough to comprehend for the everyday person. Well, I can tell you with full sincerity that Kimberly made the process so much more bearable. She was patient and translated all of the legal terms and jargon so we could all understand it. I would not for a moment hesitate referring her service.
Review
Highly recommend! Great experience with Kimberly’s office.

Review
I worked with Jenn on estate planning and related issues. Due to my family history and professional background, I have more experience than most in working with lawyers of all specialties, and I have high expectations. Jenn more than exceeded those expectations. She was thorough and conscientious in explaining the pros and cons of different approaches, and clearly articulated both her recommendations and the thought process behind them. She was very focused on ensuring that my intent was completely and clearly incorporated in the legal documentation prepared, and when my change of direction required significant rework she was both professional and supportive. Given that the change required much additional time on her part, she could have increased her fee significantly and it would have been very reasonable to do so - however, she didn't and in my experience that is rare. I feel that I have truly found an advocate I can trust in Jenn, and I would recommend her without reservation.
Review
Jenn worked with my family to set up individual and family estate plans. She was thorough and thoughtful in her process. But most importantly, she was patient! Establishing a clear estate plan took a heavy weight off my shoulders - they're difficult conversations to have, but so so important! Thank you for excellent service, Jenn!!

This is an amazing firm to work with, especially Cameron Adams. I've seen some of the seminars he has been apart of and it was nothing short of informative and professional. He was also very professional during the final signing meeting. The firm as a whole is resourceful and I would definitely recommend!
Review
My grandfather did his living trust with this firm and although they completed the trust, they were not thorough at all, which presented me, the Trustee after he passed, with many obstacles that presented themselves soon after. For example, the trust was supposed to be the beneficiary of his life insurance, but the law office never changed the existing policies, so after he passed, all the money was split equally among beneficiaries instead of paying for property taxes and trust debts. Furthermore, Caprice writes herself into your trust as someone who assumes fees if needed, to execute the trust. As such, she was urging my family to sell our family home, which she would receive a percentage of. I was able to refinance the family home, against her advice, of course, and kept our home in the family. I chose to use another law firm to represent our interests, and my husband and I are using another firm for our trust as well!
Review
Outstanding presentation! I was truly educated and motivated to take action on estate planning and take control of my assets while I’m still alive. It was a great experience for me to share with my family!❤️❤️????????????
Review
The seminar was very informative. Glad I had an opportunity to attend today's seminar. Now I can share the information with my father and try to convince him the importance of having a living will trust.
Review
This was a very small group workshop where questions were welcome! I lot of information was presented in a very understandable way. Written information was also distributed. The whole Collins Law Family was introduced. I am excited to do business with the Collins Law Firm. I feel they are very knowledgeable and professional!
