Professionals Sean Byrne and Loretta Van Zandt came into our lives at the exact right moment and my wife and I feel so lucky to have been able to work with and lean on them during some very trying and unexpected discoveries in our journey to:

a) educate ourselves about our legal responsibilities and exposure with regards to my aging father-in-law
b) to try to protect and get him some help from afar
c) support and guide us through the process of closing out his complicated estate when the unfortunate time came.

We knew nothing going into this process except that we would need to implicitly trust whoever we were working with 100% and just hope for the best. Sean and Loretta put the work in, helped us to understand each step and decision along the way, and pulled us throughout without missteps or regrets.

No one wants to have to get a lawyer, but honestly having now dealt with more than I've ever expected to have to, no one was more professional or thoughtful or careful than Sean and Loretta. They were our rock, our team, and our lighthouse no matter what we'd have to weather and I'm so grateful for their support and expertise.

I learned a lot about closing an estate (real estate and taxes and probate and titles!), but they never made me feel as though I should've known any of this beforehand (because why would I?). Their patience and understanding and empathy was truly above and beyond. If they'll take your care, put them on retainer immediately without hesitation. Best of luck (although you don't need as much when you're with the pros).

Our family feels extremely fortunate to have found Sean and his truly outstanding team to represent us. We had some thorny estate matters that Sean went well out of the normal way to resolve and the outcome was even better than we had hoped for. I cannot imagine that there is a more professional, knowledgeable, attentive, understanding, and pleasant law firm in this area than Bach & Jacobs - no accolades are sufficient to represent our gratitude for their stellar service!

My experience with Bach and Jacobs was very positive! When I needed help from a firm that specializes in Medicaid applications and advice, I chose the very best! Babette and Sherri were able to answer all my questions and were a tremendous help in navigating the Medicaid process for my husband. I thank God for these good people! I would have been totally lost without them!

I would highly recommend Sean Byrne and Sherri Fritz of Bach & Jacobs! It was our good fate to have been referred to them to direct my family through enrolling our mother into the Medicaid program. The process was so thoroughly handled by these two professionals that we felt confident and assured throughout the successful journey! They treated us with patience and kindness and secured the deserved trust of our mother, as well. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sean and Sherri – they are a remarkable team!

Sean Byrne and Fred Jacobs of Bach, Jacobs & Byrne, P.A. are simply the masters of probate and trust administration. Rarely have I encountered attorneys so genuine and so darn good at what they do. Anybody who needs legal counsel for estate planning or probate should give them a call as soon as they can.

Had the privilege of working with Babette, Sherri and Sean in connection with my Mom's estate, which took an awful lot of paper to settle. They won, yes won, my case with The State and made things so easy for my brother and me, A hundred thanks for all your work!

We utilized the services of Bach & Jacobs both to represent us as trustees for an elderly friend's estate and to set up our own wills and trust documents. We primarily worked with Babette Bach, with assistance from Sean Byrne. Babette and Sean are extremely professional and personable and, in our view, exceeded our expectations in their competency and level of service.

Sean and Mary Lynne did an absolutely wonderful job assisting us through the legal system after our mother passed away. They are knowledgeable, professional, caring, and extremely kind. I would recommend them highly to anyone who needs legal expertise when their loved one passes away.

Sean Byrne and Mary Lynne Jewell were spectacular in guiding me and my sisters through all the family matters related to my mothers passing. It is a very difficult time and you need someone who is very experienced in Family and Elder Law. I highly recommend this law firm for any of your family's legal needs.

With regard to land conservation and conservation easements, Sean Byrne is one of the most knowledgeable Attorneys that I have found during my exhaustive search in this real estate micro-niche. Additionally, he is one of those Attorneys whose Customer interaction skills are exactly how you want them to be: friendly, articulate, a true listener; and solely focused on the Customer, his / her issue, and his (Sean's) ability to use The Law to create a solution. Sean is our go-to guy for any and all future conservation work. THANK YOU, Sean.

I have used the office of Bach & Jacobs several times over the years and have been extremely pleased with their knowledge. The entire staff treats each client with respect and in a professional manner.

The firm's entire staff consistently reflected the caring attitude and superior competence exhibited by both attorneys Babette Bach and Fred Jacobs. Both are highly respected by their law peers. I dealt in person with Babette and was so supported by her through the entire legal process that I was truly amazed. Without reservation, I recommend the firm for anyone needing elder law assistance.

We had an excellent experience working with Sean, Mary Lynne and Babette. They took the time to listen to our needs and asked the right questions. They went over the possible options in detail and set us in the best possible direction to keep ourselves and our mom safe while helping us to protect all of our assets. Their prices were very fair and were clearly outlined from the beginning.

I highly recommend them and will be happy to work with them again as needed.

Babette and her staff were extremely helpful to me and my parents. I am an attorney, but I do not have expertise in this area of the law. I am extremely happy with the advice and support this law firm gave to me and my parents.

Babette Bach and her team were invaluable to my family in estate planning for my mom. With my mother's recent passing, all went well without any difficulties. My wife and I have recommended Babette in the past and would not hesitate to do so in the future. Thank you, Babette.

I had the pleasure to work with Babette Bach on my mother's estate planning. It was extremely convoluted and complicated. Ms. Bach was incredibly brilliant in her solution to our issues. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing estate planning, whether simple or complex.

Its hard for me to put into words how much Babette Bach,Sherri Fritz,and the entire staff at Bach&Jacobs Elder Law has meant to my family. Their compassion, professionalism,and down to earth way we have been dealt with has been a rare bright spot in these very difficult times.I couldn't imagine having dealt with any other firm. A huge "THANK YOU" hardly seems adequate!

Bach & Jacobs have been a wealth of valuable information for the best care of our elderly parents. Babette Bach and Sherri Fritz are always thorough yet compassionate in their advise. I would recommend the firm without hesitation for all manner of elder care assistance.

My sister and I went into the Medicaid process for our father without a clue what to do. We researched Elder Care attorneys and decided that we would contact Babette Bach as she came highly recommended. Truly, we were overwhelmed with the process. After our first meeting with Babette and Sherri I felt like I could breath again. They took care of all of the needed steps. I think it is hard to express in a review how impressed and comfortable we we with this team. Thank you both so much!

My family has worked with Bach & Jacobs, P.A. several times over the course of the past six years. We have gotten excellent advice and guidance from Babette Bach and her paralegal, Sherri Fritz. Sharon, who directs us when we call, is always very polite and gets our messages to the right people. I have complete confidence in the entire team at Bach and Jacobs and highly recommend them.

The Bach/Jacob group are so much more than lawyers. They understood that the legal component was only one part of the solution to an emotional and complicated issue. Babette is one of a kind and her staff is outstanding.

Bach and Jacobs couldn't have been more helpful during a difficult time. Having Babette and Loretta on our team was priceless. Their attention to detail and compassion is a hard combination to find and we are forever grateful. Anyone would be lucky to have Bach and Jacobs representing them.

Our lawyer and the staff made a very stressful situation, much less stressful, and I am so grateful to all of them!

Babette and Fred just get it! They treat all of their clients with the utmost amount of respect and compassion. I can't imagine being in better hands and would highly recommend them to anyone :)

The BEST Elder Law Attorneys in the area, hands down!!! I have been a client of Babette and Fred for over 7 years. They have helped me with a broad spectrum off legal issues in this time. Both attorneys are extremely knowledgeable and always do what is best for their clients.This practice is the best of the best. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Just the best. Their help made a very difficult process not only understandable but virtually painless. I cannot say enough about the professionalism and expertise of Babette Bach, Esq and Sherri Fritz, FRP. We are so pleased with the services provided. Don't go anywhere else!

I highly and wholeheartedly recommend Bach & Jacobs, P.A.. There are so many incredible things I can say about Babette Bach and Sherri Fritz. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and expertise are priceless. They work seamlessly together and therefore create the best atmosphere for their clients. Dealing with estate/financial planning is daunting and overwhelming, but Babette and Sherri work diligently to ensure that the process is smooth and as easy as possible. They are compassionate and genuinely care about the best interests of your loved one. Each time I walk into their office I am greeted by name, with a friendly smile and our needs are immediately addressed. There is no one else I would trust with the financial and care planning for my mom. Babette and her team are truly amazing!
