Client Reviews

 

“All the legal expertise without all the unnecessary billing. Stuart Scarff has handled virtually all of our business law for the past 5 years. He has guided us through a large partnership with Lexis Nexis, 3 successful acquisitions and 1 disastrous acquisition, which wasn’t his fault of course, but in any case. Stuart is very honest about what he can and cannot do and is probably one of the few lawyers where I am generally very satisfied with the bill. He is conscious about making sure we get value for the time he spends on our matters. We appreciate that and reward it with more of our legal business.”

~ Stephen, business client

 

“Stuart puts his clients first and has handled my LLC’s, real estate loan documents and my personal will with great care and competency.”

~ Anonymous

“Stuart’s the best! Stuart has wisely and efficiently handled a number of legal issues for us – from the complex to the inane, and each is handled with an eye to our best interests and offered us excellent legal counsel. I highly recommend him.”

~ Sheryl, real estate client

 

“Stuart has assisted my Mom with estate planning, gifting, and LLC formation. He is thorough, honest, friendly, and an all around great person to work with. We waited on some ‘To-Do’ items until the last minute, but he came through and worked with us to complete our tasks by the deadline. I work with a lot of lawyers in various industries and Stuart sticks out as one of the top individuals in my opinion.”

~ Anonymous

“After talking to two other attorneys that specialize in estate plans, I used Stuart to put together my and my wife’s wills as well as other related documents. He did a great job and was very easy to work with. He learned about our situation and explained his recommendations for the various documents we should have in order to protect our assets and make things easier in case we ever became incapacitated or died. His office is a little hard to find, but all good after that.”

~ Walter B., estate planning client

“Mr. Scarff helped me incorporate my small business (medical practice) in 2005 and has been a valuable consultant since then. His firm keeps me up-to-date on filings required by the State, corporate practices, gives me timely responses to questions by phone or email, and all presented in a congenial professional manner. I recommend his services highly without any reservations.”

~ David, corporate client

“Stuart, thank you so much for your help and support throughout this process. It is very evident you not only have your clients best interests in mind but you truly care about their well-being, that is rare to find. Thank you for going above and beyond for us!”

~ TJ, business client
