Jay helped us purchase our first home and we are thrilled to have had him working with us. We purchased a condo in DC without a realtor and knew we needed an experienced attorney to help us navigate the process. Jay was always responsive, patient, and took care to make sure we understood each step. His rates were also the most competitive of all the attorneys we considered.

Thanks for the nice words. Enjoy your home!

If I could give 10 STARS. I would! I needed help with creating a Living Trust for my two nephews and I could not have been connected with a better Attorney than Jay Lazrus to accomplish all of my estate planning needs! Jay took the time to answer all of my questions about an unfamiliar process, streamlined EVERYTHING, and gave me the absolutely priceless peace of mind knowing that my affairs have been put in order and that my beloved nephews' financial security is secured. I had reached out to several attorneys, and Jay contacted me immediately. I had been told by others that they would get back to me within a certain time period, but I had not heard back. And that turned out to be a blessing! For only one flat fee, which was comparable to the other attorneys that were contacted, I received the following services for my Estate Plan: Will, Power of Attorney, Medical Directive, and Transfer of 2 properties into the Living Trust. I cannot be more happy and grateful for the service that Jay Lazrus provided for me and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Thank you so much for all that you do, Jay! You are truly a blessing.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I use both hourly and flat fee pricing.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I have a free initial telephone consultation so the client can explain his/her issue and for the client to obtain a comfort level with me. Then, if the client wishes to move forward, I send a retainer letter to initiate representation.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a law degree, masters in tax law, and many continuing legal education courses.
