"I don’t normally write reviews, but we were so impressed with the legal services of Don Vanarelli, that we wanted to share with others how great our experience was. We first noticed Don from his social media presence and his history as an elder law attorney was clearly extensive and award winning. We hadn’t changed our will in years and had many life changes that needed to be addressed. We met with Don and his team to get the ball rolling. His staff is very polite, professional and knowledgeable. The process started with an in-depth questionnaire that addressed a multitude of issues that we would never have thought of. It gave us a great opportunity to address things like Long Term Care insurance, digital assets and trusts to name a few. It also gave us the chance to talk about uncomfortable issues- living wills, what to do if one of us is incapacitated, and of course what happens after we pass. Not just arrangements, but services and burial vs. cremation. We were particularly impressed with his suggestion of storing all passwords in a spot that can be easily found by either spouse or our children. We would have never thought of that. The actual will itself was the most comprehensive and detailed of a document that you could wish for. Every item is spelled out in detail with our wishes to be fulfilled. Overall we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with such a difficult and time-consuming task. We would recommend Don and his wonderful team to our best friends and that is the highest compliment I can give. Bob and Joan Santanello"

"My husband and I contacted the Law Office of Donald D. Vanarelli in order to update our wills. An appointment was set up in a timely manner that was suitable to all. From the time we arrived for our initial appointment to our last appointment for the final signing of the documents, we were treated, courteously, patiently and compassionately by Mr. Vanarelli and his staff. Any questions we had, were immediately answered, whether it be in person, or via an email or phone call. We were made to feel completely comfortable throughout the entire process. Based on our experience with the Law Office of Donald D. Vanarelli, we highly recommend his services for whatever your needs may be. He is very knowledgeable in his field and is a true professional."

"I initially "found" Mr. Vanarelli in 2002, when I really needed legal advice for nursing home placement of my Mother, who was a serious stroke victim. Following that, I was so pleased with the service and outcome, I had Mr. V. help me with options for my disabled brother, as well as getting my final papers in order so no one would have to go through what I went through with my Mom's final days. I have referred many co-workers and friends to this Law Office, who in turn were as pleased as I was, and in turn referred others. The greatest experience working with Mr. Vanarelli is his calm and gracious demeanor. I cannot say anything to the contrary, he is the absolute BEST!"

"I've used the Law Office of Donald Vanarelli for years. I've always found Don to be thorough, well prepared and thoughtful in his approach to my legal needs. He always provides useful perspectives and he knows the law. I have used Don for both large and small issues and he always delivers. Finally, his staff is friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Whenever I need a lawyer, Don Vanarelli is the first person I call. I happily recommend you do the same."

"We hired the team at Vanarelli to handle my mother's Medicaid application. They took us through, and explained in detail, the process of applying for Medicaid and how to best use her assets to help mitigate the cost during the (dreaded) penalty period. They were incredibly efficient, processed the paperwork in a timely manner, kept us in the loop with correspondence from Medicaid, and in just a few months informed us that her application was deemed eligible for benefits. My family was thrilled with their service and the success of the outcome. I HIGHLY recommend anyone dealing with a Medicaid application to call Don Vanarelli."
