Competent estate planning, but communication could improve

I engaged Lauren Enea to assist my family with updating our estate plan, including a will and a trust, following my mother's dementia diagnosis. Her expertise in elder law and Medicaid planning, as evidenced by her recognition in Best Lawyers, was immediately apparent. She provided clear, knowledgeable advice on structuring assets to protect my mother's eligibility for future care. The documents she drafted were thorough and professionally executed. However, the process felt somewhat impersonal. Response times to emails were occasionally slower than expected, sometimes taking several business days, which added to our stress during an already difficult time. While I have no doubt about the quality of her legal work or her standing in the trusts and estates field, the client experience felt more transactional than I had hoped. For straightforward legal matters, she is undoubtedly capable, but if you value frequent, proactive updates, you may need to manage those expectations directly. The firm's location in White Plains was convenient, and her nine years of experience in this specific niche were reassuring throughout.
