Reviews

Donna and her staff were so knowledgeable and helpful after my mom passed away. My mom made me executor and trustee which seemed like insurmountable tasks at first as I had a lot to learn. With the help of Donna and her experienced staff, however, they laid out the process and made it seem relatively simple... at what I considered a VERY reasonable price! Well worth it to get that kind of help! I have no affiliation with Donna or anyone at her office: met them for the first time when I went for help.
Amazing is the only word I would use to describe Donna. She has prepared Wills, Durable Power of Attorney, and Trusts not only for my parents but for my in laws as well. My Father in Law was a practicing Attorney for over 30 years and he was extremely pleased. Donna brings a rare combination of knowledge, compassion and trust. During one of conversations she asked if I might be interested in adopting a dog, the same breed as mine, just in case one of her older clients wasn't capable. That says it all. Thank you Donna.
If GOD or the Fates should put Donna Irvin Sobel in your path, then consider yourself blessed and fortunate. If it is Estate planning beforehand(and this is what you need to do)or afterwards(you do NOT want this additional burden on your grieving loved ones)then the expertise of Donna Irvin Sobel Law Office is what you need. She and her staff, Anita Falls, Medicade expert, and Sharon, Probate expert know the in's and out's of Florida's Elder Laws. They are a great team to have assisting and guiding you. And, you might ask, why I think so highly of this Law Office? I'm the grieving one left to straighten out(truth be told, Donna did all the work)family Estates, twice!
Clearly very bright, but will not interact by email (must go thru paralegal). Felt pressured, rushed...wanted to fit everything into her template and did not consider our personal situation. When we suggested approach used by other attorney, didn't appear to want to work to develop relevant issues.. Argued her points well, but we still did not g=feel comfortable. Price for package approx $1000 higher than quotes competing elder law attorneys.
This practice must be hurting for money. Ms.sobel -allowed my sister who was embezzling from our mothers estate accounts to change her will- mom has dementia- to make said sister her POA. Shady.
