Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.When my husband died he left a sizeable estate but the finances were fairly complicated. Some parts of the estate needed to be probated, and there were documents that had to be tracked down. I had never handled our financial matters before and was extremely relieved to find that Ms. Arbeitman not only sorted things out and did all the necessary paperwork in a timely and efficient manner, but she went above and beyond the call of duty in walking me through the seemingly endless forms I had to fill out and the lengthy phone calls necessary to resolve some issues with the various brokerage houses where my husband had investments. I could not have gotten through this difficult time as well as I did without her help. Whatever I paid her was well worth it for my peace of mind; in addition, I'm sure that Ms. Arbeitman saved me money by making sure that everything was done properly and to my advantage. I highly recommend her for her efficiency, professionalism, compassion and skill.
When my husband died I was left with a sizeable but rather complicated estate. Thanks to Ms. Arbeitman, the estate has been successfully settled. I was quite inexperienced at handling finances and Ms. Arbeitman was very good at explaining the complexities to me, as well as helping me fill out the many necessary forms and/or deal with the agents at the various brokerage firms where my husband had investments. She handled the considerable paperwork efficiently, and patiently persevered in tracking down documents, often consulting with my financial advisor when needed. She managed to be both professional and compassionate. I highly recommend her as a knowledgeable, skilled lawyer.
Laura Arbeitman has been my personal attorney for the past 20 years, helping me with six real estate transactions, and all my personal Legal matters such as my will, etc. She has incredibly razor sharp analytical skills, very good communication skills, Great empathy, And it’s very responsive. I have always felt that I could go to her with all my legal concerns and she would have the answer or get the answer quickly. I am not a detail person and I never have to worry that I missing anything because she is. She is particular, exacting, and thorough. I would recommend her to anyone. I see represented me in court and I could towel not only was she in charge of the information her presentation was impressive. And she won the case!!
