I hired Sharon Jannuzzi to serve as my representative in a probate case. Due to the death of my sister, the lack of a will, and my being an out-of-state resident from where she lived, I was in a particularly vulnerable position in dealing with her estate. I chose Sharon based on a friend’s recommendation and didn’t meet her in person until well into probate. I could not be more pleased with her and her assistant during every aspect of the process. They were thorough and prompt in their communications, made every effort to keep the costs of representation reasonable, and maintained a high level of integrity and professionalism. Perhaps most significantly, and not particularly commonplace for co-administrators in such cases, Sharon offered a welcomed level of personalism and proved to be both compassionate and kind throughout the many months we worked together.

Sharon represented my brother and I in a Trust dispute with a family member who was the successor trustee of our Father's trust. The successor trustee was attempting to disinherit my brother and I. Sharon's knowledge and understanding of Case Law pertaining to our situation was reassuring. She apprised us of all possible outcomes. Her ability to distill the large amounts of information that existed in this case, into an expertly crafted petition, ultimately brought the other side back to the table. The case was favorably settled without going to trial. If you're looking for an attorney that listens, is focused, and not timid. Look no further. Thank you Sharon Jannuzzi!

I very much appreciate the direct path from consultation to action, with clear communication and elaboration of the necessary steps, correction of the text to use to take action. I especially found Sharon's approach to finding the least necessary change to existing court approved documents excellent and highly fitting to estate planning work.

Due to the sudden and unexpected passing of my brother, our family was in need of a probate lawyer to handle proceedings of a residential property in the city of Sparks. Our family lives in California and had no referrals for legal assistance in Nevada. We found Sharon Jannuzzi on this AVVO Website - and upon reading reviews, we felt comfortable contacting her. After working with Sharon, our family agrees with the praises posted here. Sharon was indeed outstanding. She was very kind and personable; quick to respond to our questions; and explained details and next steps in a clear and concise manner. Working with Sharon was a pleasure and we highly recommend her legal expertise.

I went to see Sharon Jannuzzi for my will. I called, asked some questions and found out she could do a will for me. We made an appointment. She went through all the options with me. I had a couple more questions. I emailed her and she responded quickly. I met again with her and we completed my will. I am very happy with Sharon and the result.

Sharon Jannuzzi was an absolute rock star. She helped me deal with a very difficult situation with a very difficult adverse party. She was responsive, professional, and thorough. I would highly recommend her services to others.

We hired Sharon Jannuzzi to prepare our family trust package for us. She worked hard and did a wonderful job, then followed up with continued interest. To top it all off, Sharon is a nice lady and a joy to work with. We want to keep her as our family attorney.

Sharon Jannuzzi was our attorney for our guardianship case involving our grandchildren. Sharon was extremely competent and thorough in all phases of the process and was even complimented by the judge and court clerk on how perfect the paperwork was when submitted our case to the court. Further, Sharon demonstrated throughout our case that she was committed to us as clients and as people. She treated us, our grandchildren and our case as a priority. The next time I or my wife have a matter that requires us to retain an attorney, Sharon will not only be the name at the top of our list, she will be the ONLY name on our list.

Sharon was my lead attorney on drawn-out biitter family trust litigation with simultaneous lawsuits in two states. Sharon was tough, smart and quickly developed an excellent grasp of the intricacies of my case when I replaced my original attorney when the lawsuits developed as he was not a litigator. Sharon’s understanding of the case and the people involved helped her design an effective litigation strategy which she communicated to me frequently and clearly as the case developed. She listened to my input and was always accessible and easy to work with which was important to me as I was a very hands-on client. Sharon writes clear focused briefs which meant the judge always understood our point of view when prior to the start of our several court appearances. In the courtroom she makes her points professionally and effectively and was awlays able to respond effectively to arguments the opposing attorneys would make. Whether true or not, I always felt “my lawyer” was better than “their lawyer.” We ended up with a complete win. She was very reasonable in the way she billed which is often not the case. Although litigation is expensive, I felt I received excellent value for my money. Though I hope not to repeat this experience she would be my first call should I find myself in a similar situation in the future.

Sharon and her team were great to work with. She kept me and my sisters informed regularly and was responsive to our questions. We had some tough days, mediation and complex issues in a will contest. Sharon was superb in her detailed research, crafting her arguments, presenting our case in a very favorable light, as well as supporting us through difficult issues. By the way, we did achieve a modest goal, but I would have felt the same if we hadn't.
