Hired Law Firm

We were helped through the process of plenary guardianship and adoption. We are very satisfied with our services as our attorneys communicated with us very thoroughly and made us aware of all procedures. They were very helpful and kind. There was constant communication, they were always available in a reasonable amount of time. I will use their services again if need be.

Hired Attorney Craig A. Zonna

If you want to have your family torn apart, hire this guy. I've watched a perfectly good family, lose a father. Everything was supposed to be simple so no confusion would occur. My relative, hired him to oversee the estate and to make sure that everything was done legally. However, he has managed to turn an entire family against his client for feeding them lies. He knows people are emotionally vulnerable, after losing a parent. Now, he has done permanent damage to the family. He made his client/our relative unrecognizable. This was supposed to be simple, during a not so simple time. It's hard enough losing a relative. He will cause damage to your family. I am reporting what I'm watching relatives go through. It's very sad. I don't want other families to go through the same thing.
