Ronald J. Axelrod & Associates

I’ve had a great experience working with Ron and Michele at Ronald J. Axelrod & Associates, P.C. They are extremely professional, knowledgeable, and very responsive. Every time I had a question or needed clarification, they returned my emails promptly and made sure everything was handled properly. It’s not easy to find a law firm that combines professionalism with clear communication and genuine support, but they truly do. They handled my 3 business deals and all went good. If you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy law firm in the Rochester area, I highly recommend Ron and Michele. They are simply the best.

Ron tried to charge 3.5% of probate AND non-probate assets to administer my father's estate. That would mean 3.5% of his retirement and other accounts that I've already done the work to transfer into my name. Please shop around to compare fees and find an attorney that charges hourly. Ron's communication skills are abysmal. After receiving my father's will, he disappeared for two weeks, refusing to return calls and emails. Once I retained a new attorney, Ron disappeared again for another two weeks until I finally gave up and asked my attorney to handle it (for a fee). I'm out of state and had to trust other reviews, and unfortunately I made the wrong choice. I'm baffled by all the positive reviews, but maybe I was overlooked because I wasn't there in-person. Whatever it was, I saved myself $10,000s by going elsewhere.

I am a financial advisor who has worked closely with Ron Axelrod over a 25 year period...with clients who needed estate planning as well as business formation and purchase. Ron is extremely knowledgeable, savvy, and personable, and I highly recommend him and his firm.

I have had the privilege to work with Ron Axelrod over the years. He has closed many real estate transactions for my clients without a problem. He is a true professional and beyond knowledgeable! He is available when you need to talk to him and listens to what’s important to you. I would hire Ron for any of your legal needs. He’s a 5 star in my book!

Ron Axelrod has been a great legal resource for me for over 20 years. Whether I needed a legal opinion on a personal matter or for my community nonprofit work, Ron has always helped me find the answers needed. His expertise in in Estate Law. However, he is also a great advisor in the small to midsize business sector and is adept at Buy/Sell transactions. Last but not least, Ron's network of competent local professionals is vast, which means that if he doesn't know the answer to a problem, he knows how to find it and whom to ask. I highly recommend Ron.
