Sanders, Montalto & Swatik, LLP

Mark Swatik handled my trust. I would highly recommend him! He is an expert in estate planning, a pleasure to work with and honest.

Mark Swatik was a real pleasure to work with. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, thorough, courteous and patient. His calm demeanor helped us through the process of creating our family trust. We would wholeheartedly recommend Mark Swatik without reservation.

It was about time to create a living trust, so my wife and I tried finding an attorney based on referrals. The three attorneys we saw were not what we were looking for, as one was not detail oriented, and the other two were dismissive and acted as if our trust was just another thing to finish and get off their desk. After these failed attempts, we looked online for help. Unilocal led us to Nick Montalto and Mark Swatik. Boy am I glad we used Unilocal!My wife and I were setting up our first trust, and couldn’t have found a better attorney than Nick. Our first meeting, we had so many questions and Nick went through the entire process in so much detail, that he spent over 4 hours with us on our initial consultation. He was so patient and taught us all we wanted to know about living trusts. After a few visits, and a very reasonable flat rate, we have a comprehensive trust that will ensure our children are well protected in case the worst happens.
Thanks so much to Nick and to Mark (who gave us a consultation on another issue), for their warm and welcoming demeanor, attention to detail, work ethic and patience with us. These guys are excellent attorneys, but their even better human beings. I would trust my kids with both of these gentlemen. If you want someone honest and thorough preparing your trust, go see these guys. You won’t find anyone better.

As a CPA, I frequently have to refer my clients to a trust attorney to handle their will or trust. My trust attorney of choice is Sanders, Montalto & Swatik. I was first introduced to Nick Montalto several years ago by a well respected financial advisor. As he had already been vetted by another financial professional that I trusted, I had a good feeling about him before I even met him. Working with him has only reinforced my initial impression. I know first hand as Nick prepared my trust. The trust was very comprehensive and gave me the peace of mind that I needed to ensure that my assets were protected. Nick was patient and took the time to explain to me various provisions of the trust that I was not familiar with. The required paperwork was filed with the assessor’s office which not all trust attorneys do. I was so pleased with the service that I received that I referred my sister to Nick and he prepared her trust as well. I would not hesitate to refer Nick or Mark to my clients, associates or friends.

I was very satisfied with the time Mark Swatik took to explain the information he was covering. Mark was very open to informing my wife and I of the pros and cons to all areas of our living trust. I have a daughter from a previous relationship and my wife and I have a daughter together. My wife also has MS. Mark was able to protect both daughters equally, as well as protecting my wife’s disability benefits. It was a huge weight taken off my shoulders after Mark established my families living trust.

We were skeptical at first with doing a Family Trust because when my grandfather passed away, we experienced so many issues relating to the incorrect nature of the trust. We were referred to Mark Swatik and upon first meeting him, we knew he was knowledgable and fair. He walked us through the entire process and made it feel effortless, while creating a plan that would protect my family for my remaining tenure. He kept my wife and I in the loop through the entire process and always responded in a timely manner to questions, as we had a lot of them.

Mr. Swatik prepared my living trust and did so in an extremely competent and very professional manner. He answered all of my questions and made me feel comfortable in dealing with such a complex set of circumstances. I will be referring my other family members and friends to him, as I learned something that was very important through this process. You only have 2 options; you either get your own affairs in order, according to your interests and wishes, or else the court will do everything for you. If the court does it, you stand to lose a lot of money, which should be going to your own family. I highly recommend Mr. Swatik for your estate planning needs.

My husband and I worked with Mark Swatik for our estate planning. Mark was wonderful in explaining everything, and spent several hours providing a detailed explanation and breakdown of estate planning on our first visit – for free! He understands that everyone has different needs and works with you accordingly. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and detail oriented, and helped us put together a complete estate plan far beyond what we considered at an incredibly reasonable price. We both now sleep better knowing we’ve taken care of our children and minimized any disruption to their lives in the case of an unfortunate incident. I highly recommend everyone to contact Mark immediately; my husband and I are only in our mid-​30s and never would’ve been able to get through this process so quickly and efficiently without Mark’s constant guidance and communication. I only wish I’d contacted him sooner!

My husband and I wanted to set up our estate plan and after seeing the many positive reviews for Sanders and Montalto on Unilocal,we decided to set up a consultation. They let us know that there was no obligation in choosing their services. We met with Nick Montalto and Mark Swatik and both were very informative and pleasant to work with. After the consultation, there was no doubt in our minds that we wanted them to set up our living trust. They provided a comprehensive binder with our documents and Mark let us know to contact them at any time with any questions or changes. We would definitely recommend them to our family and friends.

Mark encouraged us to consider estate planning, and we are really glad that he did. He put our trust together and has given us an invaluable education along the way. In fact, he went rather above and beyond with respect to making sure our small business was protected as well as educating us in order to assist our parents to have their estates in order. This has all been quite eye opening, and Mark really made this type of new information accessible. We definitely recommend Mark for first timers to the idea of estate planning.

After our son was born getting our estate in order became a priority. Nicholas Montalto and his team did an excellent job explaining each part of our trust, what it does and why it is important. His was very experienced, professional and efficient. It seems like he enjoys helping people which is a rare find these days.

My husband and I went to Mark E. Swatik
redo our trust, a friend had recommended him to me, I am so happy we went, The trust was originally done so bad, and I knew it!, after it was originally done the County Assessors Office contacted me saying my property had to be reevaluated, since ownership had changed hands, so scary!!, Mark was so helpful, in helping, us redo it correctly. He takes his time, and explains everything, don’t be fooled by ADs saying they will do your Trusts cheap, most of them are a nightmare, We highly recommend Mark for Trust and will needs.
he is very knowledgeable in his field.

We had a trust that was over 30 years old and needed updating. Mark asked the right questions and responded to our needs. He also suggested some areas of revision that we hadn’t considered. He made good use of our time and delivered an excellent product efficiently and for a very reasonable fee. We have recommended him to several people because he has an excellent knowledge of the field.

My wife and I went to Mark E. Swatik, Esq. to redo our trust. he spent many hours with us explaining all the ins and outs and making great recommendations. We are very pleased with his service and highly recommend him for trust and will needs.

Since the birth of our daughter, I knew we needed to get our estate in order, but I didn’t know where to start. Nick Montalto was recommended to us by our good friends and boy does he know what he is doing. He walked us through creating a will/​trust, estate plan, durable power of attorney, and health care provisions. He fully answered all of our questions and never made us feel like we were wasting his time. He’s like your favorite college professor… smart, trustworthy, and someone you like seeing for an hour at a time.
