We were so lucky and extremely grateful to have had Michele Gegwich on our side when she did the Advocacy with the MLTC company to get our loved one the care he needed. She was very knowledgeable and constantly stayed on top of things but more important than that she cared and was concerned that my loved one got what he needed! I highly recommend Michele and Futterman, Lanza & Pasculli to anyone in a similar situation!

What a great experience! Talking to an Elder Attorney to make a plan to protect your assets and ensure your spouse and your children the easiest time possible, during a very hard time, is a very serious part of what one must do. Ron Lanza made it easy for us. He was very professional, extremely experienced and knowledgeable and he took as much time as needed to fully explain everything to us. He listened to us and got to know us before he made suggestions. We feel very comfortable now knowing we have a plan, we have all the documents needed and we did all we could. I would highly recommend Ron

Barrie Bazarsky and her paralegal Diane Ford were awesome! Their honesty, professionalism, and commitment are unparalleled. Barrie represented me in a personal injury case where she was able to win twice what the insurance company was willing to pay after my auto accident. I was very happy with that!
No matter what, both Barrie and Diane were very responsive to any of my communications. They were always available to answer my questions or concerns... Either by phone, email, or in person. In fact, I would regularly get phone calls from Barrie, to update me on my case. If I didn't answer my phone

We cannot say enough good things about Ron Lanza and his staff. They were so helpful, friendly, professional and most of all knowledgeable in guiding us through the estate planning process. Every question was answered thoroughly. Suggestions were made that we never considered, but definitely were worth considering. They walked us through the entire process explaining every step. The paper work was handled in a very timely fashion. Phone calls were returned promptly. Do not hesitate to give them a call and ask for a consultation!

Let me state that I have never met Ron Lanza of FL&P before our first meeting a few weeks ago. At one time or another you'll ask a friend "Can you recommend a decent attorney". Well, I now can do that for… you.
There are no horror stories or bad experiences with this firm, Ron Lanza, and his Paralegal, Ms Taylor. I'm divorced and did not wish to have my family left with a financial mess because I was too lazy and cheap to take care of elder legal responsibilities. Mr Lanza crafted papers to my specific circumstances. Also he listened to me to be sure I understood the process and options

I used Barrie Bazarsky as my personal Injury attorney after a serious car accident. I can not say better things about Barrie. She walked me through the whole process and her sense of urgency was unmatched. She is also very accessible which is important to me. My case went through COVID which made the process way more complicated, that did not slow her down. I am very pleased with my outcome and the service provided. I highly recommend Barrie as a personal Injury attorney!

I have been working with Felicia Pasculli and her office manager Jimmy Udell for a few years for elder care planning. They have always been patient and kind in addition to highly skilled in all the legalities involved with our situation. I am grateful for their services and only wish I had found them sooner. I would recommend this office for anyone who needs elder law planning.

Barrie has been the absolute BEST as my personal injury attorney after my accident last year. She walked me through the process step by step, was consistent and responsive with keeping me up-to-date on the case, and made the entire post-accident experience so much easier! Couldn’t thank her enough

I was referred to Aaron Futterman to update my will and prepare other documents, including a living will and health care proxy. I met with Aaron Futterman at the Garden City office and was quite pleased with the service provided by Aaron and his team. Aaron was extremely knowledgeable, professional, honest and responsive, ensuring all my questions and concerns were addressed. Documents were drafted and finalized efficiently and timely. I highly recommend Futterman, Lanza & Pasculli, LLP.

My family and I have had such a positive experience with Attorney Felisha Pasculli. The communication was seamless. She took her time to explain everything to me. She worked around my crazy schedule. Always answered my emails and text. Melissa S who handled our community Medicaid application for my grandmother was amazing!! Super professional and so patient with my many questions! This concierge service was beyond my expectations I’d highly recommend Felisha to all my friends and family. Thanks so very much!

Wonderful firm. Have been represented by Barrie Bazarsky, Senior Associate, personal injury for a car accident. Barrie has been amazing. Always available when ever I call, kept me updated and informed on my case and was dynamic representing me to an arbitrator. I could not have asked for a better attorney. Barrie is kind, understanding yet firm. She kept me focused and calm. Words can only begin to express how grateful I am. I highly recommend Barrie to anyone who needs a personal injury attorney. Thank you. Mark Keicher
