Lawyer & Notary Public
Deb's service was impeccable. She was patient, clear in her explanations, and made complex legal terms easy to understand. Her virtual consultations were convenient, efficient, and just as effective as face-to-face meetings. Deb's thoroughness and professionalism gave us peace of mind, knowing our estate is in good hands. We highly recommend her for anyone looking for a competent and caring estate lawyer.

Our experience working with Howse-Rubenstein Estate Law was exceptional. The level of professionalism, commitment, expertise, communication and timely follow up to any detail was impressive. Not to mention the very reasonable fee charged for probate for my mother's estate. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Deborah and this law firm. Go with them! You won't be disappointed.
