Testimonials
During A most difficult time, Shira Was a constant source of strength and knowledge during this entire transaction. I don't know what I would have done without her. She made a very difficult And most of the time overwhelming task as easy as possible. And also kept the calm in the storm. Thank you Shira for all of your help. I will be forever grateful! I went to UBFK for the purpose of revising my will and POA. My experience was solely with Shira Frackt, who was both professional and pleasant during our meetings. Both documents were accurate and completed as promised. Very happy in my dealings with Shira and the firm, so would recommend her to others. Our real estate lawyer recommended Shira Frackt to handle our wills and trusts. We are so happy he did! She is easy to work with, and very patient and smart. Not only very knowledgeable in the area but she discussed with us every option we had and she understood our needs and concerns. I highly recommend her. We used Shira Frackt for our Last Will and Testament and Living Will. We found Shira to an excellent resource and very well prepared. We were considering trusts for our four grandchildren but Shira didn't advise that we do this since trusts can add to the cost. She recommended a different approach that did not increase the cost and would met our needs. Shira was always willing to speak with us over the phone as we had many questions and she did so on three occasions.
When we came to the office to review the documents Shira patiently and methodicaly reviewed every paragraph. We never felt rushed. Look no further if you need estate and trust planning! Shira has our highest recommendation.
