We would like to assist you in making that choice by providing you with a preview of our qualifications and the benefits of retaining our services.

First, we invite you to click here for Questions To Ensure You Are Working With A Qualified Estate Planning And Elder Law Attorney. Please be certain that your attorney can answer all of these questions with a confident “YES”. Of course, Curley Law Firm LLP and its elder law attorneys can answer “YES” to each question.

What Makes Curley Law Firm LLP An Excellent Choice To Handle Your Elder Law Or Estate Planning Matter?

The short answer is our focus and experience — we work exclusively in estate planning and elder law. Our deep experience ensures that we will provide the very best legal advice for your specific situation. We have built a state-wide reputation for our work, and our attorneys have been recognized for their experience and expertise.

Focus And Experience

Our practice is focused exclusively on elder law and estate planning. Our attorneys offer more than a combined 50 years of experience and their collaborative approach ensures you receive the full benefit of their specialized experience in these areas of law. We have successfully handled hundreds and hundreds of estate planning and elder law matters. Chances are excellent we have handled an issue similar to yours for another client.

Industry Recognition

Both attorney Patrick Curley and attorney Lucy Budman are Certified Elder Law Attorneys (CELA). The requirements for this certification are so difficult to achieve that fewer than two dozen attorneys in Massachusetts have achieved this level of distinction. Please visit the What Is A Certified Elder Law Attorney? page for additional, important information on CELA expertise.

Each of our attorneys has achieved further distinction and recognition in the elder law and estate planning fields. Patrick Curley has been selected for inclusion in the Massachusetts Super Lawyers since 2011. Lucy Budman holds a prestigious Masters of Law in taxation from Boston University Law School, and has been selected for inclusion in the Massachusetts Rising Stars since 2012. She is one of the few attorneys in Massachusetts with this depth of experience and achievement in the area of tax and asset protection planning. Attorney Mark Curley offers the distinct qualification of both a law degree (JD) and a business degree (MBA). He has served clients with estate planning and probate services for nearly four decades.

Industry recognition is more important than ever because so many attorneys are now claiming to be “elder law attorneys,” when in fact they are not certified elder law attorneys and do not have years of focused specialization in elder law and estate planning. Our focus means we stay on top of the latest developments in the law, and our experience means you can rely on the information and advice we provide.
