Jason was beyond professional! My parents had dual citizenship in Germany and the US. He made everything super easy for our family. Not having to fly back and forth to the US was a big help.
I am so thankful to have found Jason Stern and his partner Matt Hunter. They took my case when our family member died and we realized we were not receiving our inheritance.

Called for a probate consultation and Jason Stern provided valuable information. Looked up the deed to the home and now we feel comfortable knowing the laws pertaining to the matter. I would highly recommend him as he was personable and efficient!

Jason is the best. 3 other attorneys told me and other members of our family we were dead in the water on our estate issue and he came through. This process was tearing our family apart and thanks to his teams' kinship research he was able to clear everything up for all of us. He truly found a win for everyone. Jason, we all… More will be indebted to you and your associates forever!
I Called Jason one day from out of state with a New York estate problem. Not only was this attorney patient and nice to me, he stayed on the phone until all of my questions were answered. Nobody, and I mean nobody does this anymore. He did not even charge me. He told me I did not need an attorney and instructed me on how to solve this… More problem on my own. 10 stars for Jason W Stern
My wife and I have nothing but positive things to say about Attorney Jason Stern. He was extremely professional and a man of his word. He gave me honest and invaluable advise about a difficult issue I needed to handle. He was very responsive to my phone calls and took the time to answer every question I had... He definitely went above… More and beyond to help us.
If you are in need of an attorney, I strongly suggest seeking the services of Mr. Jason Stern.
We were so happy to find Mr. Stern to plan our estates. So many people told us we needed trusts but these attorneys advised us against it. Mr. Stern did simple wills for us which were better for what we needed and much cheaper. If you need an honest attorney who will give you straight answers this is your lawyer.
When our father died he left a bad will that was changed just before he passed. It cut our siblings portion of the estate by a lot and named our niece as the person in control of his estate. This made no sense to us. Luckily we hired Jason and Matt to go after this phony will and contest it because we stood to get very little from… More the inheritance which was not right. In the end we agreed that our niece would not be the executor and we all agreed to take the amount that was written in our father's previous will. For our siblings this inheritance came at a time when it was much needed. We cannot thank these attorneys enough.
Very lucky to find such great attorneys to handle our estate. My family is entirely out of state and we needed an experienced attorney to handle our NY kinship case. Jason Stern and Matthew Hunter treated us with nothing but respect and patience, warmly explaining each step of the proceeding to us in terms we understood. Our kinship… More case was a bit more difficult than most because we had lost touch with members of the family years ago. Jason and Matt did not disappoint and did not give up until they successfully recovered the estate for us. Definitely attorneys you can trust and turn to with your case.
Before drafting an expensive trust you probably won’t need talk to these attorneys. After being told by several other lawyers how we needed to form a trust Jason and Matt explained to us why we did not need one. They saved our family money and we thank them for that. Reputable attorneys that will level with you that I will recommend… More to anyone.
I luckily found Jason and Matt to handle our complex estate. As it went, our mother named our brother as her executor who refused to do the right thing. These attorneys fought hard to make sure we received our share of the estate. Jason was always accessible and clearly explained each stage of the lengthy process. I am grateful for their… More outstanding service from start to finish. As a thank you, I highly recommend this firm.
Jason and Matt are the greatest attorneys. Their honesty and integrity is uncommon in the legal field which makes it really easy to have them represent you. Anyone in need of an estate lawyer should feel comfortable with this legal team protecting your interests.
Our distant relative died in NYC. Our family is all out of state. Sizeable inheritance and when we learned it was all going to go to the State of New York if we didn't act fast we hired the best attorneys in the business.
These NY estate lawyers worked tirelessly piecing the research together to win our case at trial. This estate… More changed our lives for the better and speaking on behalf of the entire family we would not have seen a nickel if not for Jason.
Our family recommends Jason and Matt wholeheartedly, when you need the best call them.
When our aunt passed leaving behind a will members of our family began the process to control the estate knowing they were not in her will. We did not even know this could happen.
We did not mess around and went straight to the best estate lawyers in NY and they did not disappoint . Jason and Matt were prepared for every possible manuever.… More When we filed the will as expected these unsavory characters objected. Once again Jason and Matt defeated them in short order.
In the end I am confident we could not have succeeded like we did without our A team of expert legal professionals on our side. I cant thank them enough these attorneys changed our lives.
Attorney Stern was very forthcoming and professional with the information. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question. I recommend this attorney and law firm for any estate matters.
When our mother passed away our estranged brother attempted for lack of a better word steal our inheritance. We put our faith and trust in Jason and Matt and it paid off. My brother's case was quickly dealt with and we received exactly what out parents intended. If we went with any other attorneys we would have been in trouble.… More Now my children's financial future is secure and we owe it to these skilled professionals.
I live in Denmark and have family in the states. We had an unfortunate loss to our family and thankfully Jason and his team handled everything for us. Most of didn't even have to leave home and everything was handled even from a great distance. We appreciate everything you have done for us and our family. I can't imagine… More having anyone else handle issues like this for us.
When I used to think of the word attorney the words integrity, honesty, helpfulness and compassion have never really come to mind. But after finding myself in a legal estate nightmare I found my way to Jason and Matt and all of that changed. Not only did they fix the estate and get everyone their share of the inheritance but they did… More it in a way that made us feel informed and protected every step fo the way. You do not have to be afraid of the law or going to court when you have the right people behind you and Jason and Matt are the right attorneys for the job.
Best attorneys ever! We give our highest recommendation for Jason & Mathew. We couldn’t have gotten a better team anywhere else. Their concern and dedication to our case was outstanding!
We never realized how good it was to have a great attorney on your side until we needed one. Oh boy did we need one after our parents passed. Our mother made the mistake of making our sister in charge of her estate. Almost a year after she passed our sister still refused to tell us anything about the inheritance. Fortunately we found… More our way to Mr. Stern and he and his partner Matt went right to work on the situation. Once these attorneys dug in they would not stop until we received every penny owed. More importantly Mr. Stern gave this family the closure we needed to move on with our lives. Great attorneys who care.
