Long Island Estate Planning Attorneys

Serving Clients Throughout Long Island and Surrounding Areas Including Merrick, Massapequa, Baldwin, Levittown, Lindenhurst, Bethpage, Rockville Centre, Huntington & Northport, NY

Long Island clients first entrusted us to help them with their estate planning and elder law issues over 30 years ago. Since then, Schneider Garrastegui & Fedele PLLC has continued to focus on assisting individuals and families with some of the most important issues facing them in their lives. 

While estate planning is often associated with only the very wealthy or the elderly, it is an issue for everyone regardless of age or financial standing. In reality, if you own anything, you have an “estate,” which you will likely want to pass on to your loved ones and other beneficiaries according to your own preferences. 

Estate planning allows you to do that; without it, state law will determine how your assets will be distributed without your input. 

Elder law, a field that deals with issues affecting the aging population, often dovetails with estate planning. Matters such as health care, long-term care planning, retirement, and more can be planned to ensure future security.

    "Exceptional job of communicating the process and helping us."
    We were new to purchasing a home in New York. Mike Fedele and his office did an exceptional job of communicating the process and helping us through the contracting and closing process.
    - T.S.
    "Would recommend them to anyone in need of this service!"

    - Jacqueline
    "I cannot speak more highly of this law firm!"
    I’ve worked with Schneider Garrastegui & Fedele on a couple occasions and I could not have been more happier. We hired Mr Fedele esq to help with elder law concerning my father in-law and becoming an admin to an estate. Mr Fedele esq was very thorough in explaining every aspect of the case and what steps we needed to take. The whole process was extremely seamless without any interruption to our daily routine. When we had a question to ask, it was immediate. After having such a wonderful experience, my wife and I used them on 2 other occasions. We had Vivian Garrastegui help with a Medicaid application when my mother in-law needed to apply. We also needed a real-estate attorney when we were in the market to purchase a new home and again Mr Fedele made it happen! Even after completion of the cases, he always takes our call and helps us with any questions. I cannot speak more highly of this law firm!
    - Dimitri
    "They are top notch!"
    Selling my house was a little problematic. Michael Fedele and Robert Matozzo were the Dream Team. They were quick to respond to the problems and provided intelligent and common sense guidance. My options were clearly laid out. I would highly recommend this firm. They are top notch!
    - Janice
    "I would recommend this team without reservation."
    Vivian and her team created a Revocable Trust for my mom several years ago and it protected my handicapped brother and gave mom great peace of mind. More recently, Vivian helped us with a complicated real estate transaction. Throughout the process she was proactive, responsive and most importantly, accurate and effective in her counsel and guidance. She was responsive and timely in her communications and gave clear and precise instructions and recommendations resulting in a (and I don't use this term lightly,) perfect execution of the process and closing. And just as important, my 91 year old mom liked and trusted her without question. I would recommend this team without reservation.
    - Rob
    "The whole team blew my expectations out of the water."
    Michael and the whole team blew my expectations out of the water. They are a pleasure to deal with and extremely knowledgeable in their field. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing a real estate attorney.
    - Adam
