Colette brings over 20 years of experience to her law practice and built her legal foundation at renowned New York-based firms.

When an unexpected and time sensitive matter arose I contacted the Meyer Law Firm for assistance . They immediately grasped the nature and urgency of the matter and prepared not only the initial documents that I inquired about but also recommended supplemental documents to enhance the plan in place. The entire set of documents were not only completed but executed, notarized and in hand to meet the impending deadline! Nothing short of a fabulous experience during a stressful time that was met head on with expertise, knowledge, compassion and understanding and support ! I highly recommend the Meyer Law firm !

I researched and found what I've come to understand as a Godsend in the estate planning of my Late Mother. Whether it be the simple creation of a trust to negotiating your best interest in defense of contentious family members that threaten litigation, I would not make a move without the counsel of Meyer Law and I can assure anyone looking for sound representation would be wise in following suit!

The Meyer firm was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them for the following reasons: Very professional, polite, did exactly what I expected, responsive, and probably most importantly of all ... Trustworthy! Michelle was extra helpful, organized, and just a pleasure to work with. Can't say enough good things!

I am so grateful that I contacted Colette Meyer regarding my parents' estate. The quality of service I received was exceptional. My case had several factors involved that made it quite complicated and very obvious that i would not be able to resolve it without help. Ms. Meyer and her staff were highly professional and competent. I don't often write reviews but I'm hoping that others can benefit from their service as well.

I first contacted Colette Meyer when a family legal matter became very complicated very quickly. It was the right decision. This was a case of a large company with a team of attorneys taking advantage of a grieving individual. Friends and colleagues had told me that these things take years to resolve if at all - not with the Meyer Law Firm. Colette Meyer and her team were competent, determined and empathetic to my situation. This was fully resolved in a very timely manner. I am very grateful to Colette Meyer and her staff.

I have also recommended her to family and friends. I have used many Lawyers for personal matters, my Real Estate Co and my Building and Development Co for the past 45 years. Her firm and staff rank at the top.

Hired Attorney

I have been in business for more than 48 years and I have worked with numerous lawyers in multiple states. I can tell if an attorney is familiar with the legal issue at hand or not. When I first started in business I took for granted the attorney knew what they were doing. Not true, most attorneys are learning on your dime. NOT Ms. Meyer. Ms. Meyer's experienced and knowledgeable, has approached the problem before, knows how to solve the problem because she knows the law as well or better than who you or she is opposing. Additionally, her documents cover all contingencies. If you want an expert on your side who listens and knows how to solve your problem(s), hire Ms. Meyer.

Trust and confidence were the two values we admired most working with Colette. Additionally, Colette offered sensible and valuable recommendations which made the estate planning process even more productive and satisfying. We unconditionally recommend Meyer Law!

I rate Colette and her staff as excellent! Having just finished a first hand experience working with the Meyer Law firm to close out my mothers trust estate upon her death, I am particularly impressed by their professionalism and prompt attention to my needs. They are estate experts, very friendly and show a true client orientation with outstanding results. Lawrence Robbins

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions
