Thinking about estate planning can be a stressful and difficult topic. No one wants to confront death, whether it is their own or that of a loved one. Through estate planning, you can also plan for the future success of your business and protect the assets that you have worked so hard to earn.

At DeCandido & Azachi, PLLC, we understand how sensitive these issues are for you and your family. Our estate planning attorneys focus on fostering a warm, compassionate atmosphere to help you navigate these issues. We have served clients in Queens, Nassau County and throughout New York City for years, helping them get the estate planning, asset protection and business succession solutions they need in a timely manner.
