About our living will trust attorney
The law firm of Weinstein, Chase, Messinger and Peters, P.C. , originated in 1955 as Weinstein & Chayt, P. C., with an office in Brooklyn, New York. Since 1958, the principal office of the firm has been located at 26 Court Street, Brooklyn, New York. The firm is among the oldest continuous law firms in Brooklyn. In November of 1992, the firm name became Weinstein, Chase, Messinger and Peters, P.C. Members of the firm have the highest quality rating in Martindale-Hubbell -- "AV."
The principal area of practice is civil litigation, mainly torts (personal injury and medical malpractice) and insurance. As a result of our specialization in this area we often act as counsel to other attorneys regarding matters of this type. For more than 20 years, the firm has been particularly well known in the field of medical malpractice. We have also done extensive defense work for private litigants, particularly those who have been sued and have no insurance.
The firm has a well-established and excellent reputation with our adversaries and in the courts. We fight hard but with fairness and integrity. Our practice is not limited to Kings County (Brooklyn), but the firm is undoubtedly best known in this County. We have many cases throughout the five boroughs of New York City and also in Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester.
Along with our focus area of civil litigation and trials, the firm devotes a substantial portion of its practice to the areas of real estate, wills, trusts and estates as well as general commercial matters such as the incorporation, purchase and sale of businesses.
