Kitchen table, your office, or Zoom — your choice.
South-central Suffolk coverage via the Southern State Parkway and Sunrise Highway. Same-week scheduling at the kitchen table or workplace is standard. Most Central Islip households prefer a first meeting in person — at the kitchen table or the workplace — and follow-up reviews over Zoom. Notary services are included at every in-person meeting at no additional cost; most paperwork that requires a notary stamp (beneficiary updates, IRA rollover forms, joint-and-survivor elections) can be handled at the meeting instead of a separate trip to the bank.
