Testimonials

“

I just wanted to let you know I just received the final cheques winding up the estate. I was seriously thinking of not taking on being the Executor of the estate as it was such a mess, until the first meeting I had with Stephen. Stephen, you gave me the confidence to take on the project and took away many of my fears. I am now very happy that I was able to complete my uncle’s final wishes. Thank you.

In early 2018, our beloved mother passed away following a brief and unexpected illness. We were emotionally drained and, in our grieving, were having difficulties handling the wide range of responsibilities relating to her estate. We required a lawyer who would guide our family through this difficult time, and were glad we retained Stephen Cohen. Mr. Cohen, and his team, were professional, courteous, informative, and patient during the probate process. He expedited the various applications and forms resulting in a quick settlement containing no outstanding issues. We were very pleased with Stephen Cohen, and highly recommend him.
