Laura Williams
After my father's passing, we were faced with a complex estate involving significant art assets and a contested trust provision. Navigating this required an attorney with not just deep legal knowledge, but also seasoned judgment. Mr. Frimmer was exactly that. His 50+ years of experience, particularly in the nuanced intersection of trusts and estates with art law, was immediately apparent. He guided us through probate administration and the ensuing litigation with a steady hand, his strategic thinking clearly informed by decades of practice. His recognition as a 'Lawyer of the Year' in this field is well-deserved. Beyond his formidable expertise, he was personally accessible and explained every step with clarity, turning a stressful situation into a manageable process. The outcome was exceptionally favorable, protecting both the estate's assets and our family's legacy. I cannot recommend Paul Frimmer highly enough for sophisticated estate planning and litigation.
