Hired Attorney Elga A. Goodman

My Wife and I started working with Elga Goodman, esq. approximately one year ago. We needed to have a Revocable Living Trust completed. We are in our senior years and have accumulated a substantial amount of wealth we wanted to protect for our children. I considered several attorneys and selected Ms. Goodman based upon the consultation. We found her to be extremely knowledgeable in Elder and Trust Law. She guided us through all our options in tailoring a Trust that met our objectives. Her staff was fantastic and a real pleasure to work with. She simplified the process answering many of our concerns in clear understandable terms. Simply put, we valued the work she performed and would strongly recommend this attorney to anyone needing legal services covering Elder Law and Trust Account s. Sal and Diana Latino
