Client Testimonials

My husband has a diagnosis of fronto-temporal dementia. Salines-Mondello Law was recommended to me. Lisa Mondello has walked with me through Estate Planning, Legacy Planning, Power of Attorney, Supplemental Needs Trust, the importance of accurate records, and business and personal issues. Salines-Mondello is a top-notch firm, highly organized and knowledgeable. Care of clients is clearly top priority. I can trust Salines-Mondello.

Wouldn't have prevailed without her!! Ms Salines-Mondello came into my case on an emergency basis when my out-of-town attorney was unable to attend my sudden court date. Not only did she absorb a great deal of complicated history of my case very quickly, but she developed an approach that led, ultimately, to a reversal of the expected outcome. In the court room, Ms Salines-Mondello was remarkable in her ability to identify key issues and examine witnesses in the most effective way possible. Ms Salines-Mondello is very easy to work with, she understands not only the facts, but the nuances, and I would highly recommend her for anyone pursuing a guardianship matter.

The team at Salines-Mondello Law Firm was wonderful in working with us on our estate plan. Lisa Salines-Mondello laid out a plan to meet our needs, allowed us time to review, answered all of our (many) questions, and gave us all of our documents in forms that we can keep and also share with our family members. We highly recommend this firm. You will not be disappointed.

Lisa was fantastic! She knows the regulations and the challenges facing families as parents age. She provides compassionate, no-nonsense counsel on options and approaches to protect the entire family. The entire process was both educational and reassuring ... I sleep much better knowing that we have a solid plan for my mother, my husband and I and our children. We should have done this years ago. I highly recommend!!

Exceptional legal service you can choose! Lisa Salines-Mondello speaks directly to your issue. She is well informed and goes over and above to ensure your issue is resolved. We had many concerns about our case, Lisa is thoughtful and knowledgeable in her approach to all areas. She has been a god sent to us, always making us feel like a priority. We highly recommend Lisa for all legal matters.
