Why Choose Us?

Focus & Expertise
We don't try to be everything to everybody. We do one thing, and we do it well. Our entire practice is focused exclusively on estate and asset protection planning - a complex field with wide ranging legal, tax, and financial implications for clients. We believe you deserve, and are best served by, our undivided attention and dedication to this practice area.
Fixed Fees
We've done our best to reduce or eliminate hourly billings in most of our client matters. Whether you require a simple will, a complex, multi-tiered estate or asset protection plan, or the probate of a loved one's estate, we will provide you – in writing - a fixed “all inclusive” fee for our services.
Perspective
When you work with Donlon & Associates, you get more than superior legal counsel and first rate documents– you also get comprehensive advice carefully tailored to coordinate seamlessly with your tax situation and financial plans. Our founder, Joseph Donlon, being both a licensed attorney and a holder of the prestigious Certified Financial Planner™ designation, has made this type of integrated planning a cornerstone of our practice.
Responsiveness
We are diligent in returning client phone calls and emails. During business hours, we'll get back to you as soon as possible, often within minutes, and generally within two hours. In all cases we guarantee that no call or email will go unreturned for more than 24 hours.
Convenience
With two great locations, we are able to comfortably serve clients throughout New York City and Long Island.
- Our Garden City office has plenty of parking, is handicap accessible, and is less than 20 minutes from almost anywhere in Nassau, Queens, or western Suffolk
- Our Manhattan location is perfectly situated in the Financial District (in the same building as the landmark Century 21 store), and within one short block of a half dozen major subway and bus stops
For clients with disabilities or significant transportation or scheduling issues, we're happy to arrange alternate meeting locations and/or schedule appointments outside normal business hours.
