    Testimonials

    "For more than three years, as authors and journalists with our own small publishing company, we tried to find a competent lawyer able to handle the complications of a literary and a financial estate plan. Jill not only listened to what we were trying to put together but she made our goals and interests her priority. We knew Jill was rare-she has gone the extra mile to fashion a custom-tailored literary and financial estate plan. Jill is now a pivotal part of all our literary and financial planning as we go forward."

    Clients

    It is without reservation that I recommend Jill Teitel as legal counsel. I was impressed by her knowledge of estate matters/litigation and mediation. Jill always explained the law, clearly and without condescension, along with my options and possible outcomes so that I could make informed decisions with regard to a dispute resolution. Ms. Teitel’s commitment to ethics, honesty, and integrity was evident from the start and she has surely earned my trust. Retaining the wrong attorney can be a nightmare. Jill Teitel is the right one!
