Rheinhardt and Bray, P.C.

Chris and his team handled my parents Trust with professionalism and a communication method which let them feel at ease with where and how their money was going to be protected. As both of them had passed the transition to my sister and myself was seamless and easy. Kristin from the office handled the sale of the house which was in the trust with the utmost professionalism and my sister and I were not local to be involved with the sale. Kristin worked tirelessly directly with the broker and kept us in the loop throughout the entire process. I would recommend Chris and the team at Rienhardt and Bray to anyone looking to set up these type of trust accounts for their parents.

Chris is extremely down to earth and honest. I have delt with many lawyers and Chris is one of the few I trust. Went above an beyond even told him that what he charged me was not enough for the service provided. Highly Recommend!

My father died back in December and we set up a trust through Chris Bray in the preceding years. Chris was great setting up the trust. What he’s not great with is answering questions or helping out the family with trust concerns after a loved one has died. I have no knowledge of trusts and have been trying to file his life insurance claim correctly into the trust since the week he died which will be 3 months on March 11. The jargon is confusing. In these past 3 months, Chris hasn’t returned a single phone call. His staff said they’d help and then never got back to me. My mother went to the office in person saying she’d pay to have the question answered and the clerk said verbatim “it’s not the money, it’s the time.” Too busy to make the time …Very very sad. Not even five minutes to spare.

I became involved in my aunt and uncle’s affairs when they were in their early 90’s. It became clear a major change had to be made in their living arrangements and luckily someone in town recommended Chris Bray of Rheinhardt & Bray, P.C. Over a five-year span, Chris has given me and my spouse exceptional legal counsel and guidance on how to support my aunt and uncle. He is extremely personable and has the ability to explain complex legal strategies in a simplified understandable way. For us, this involved finances, will’s, powers of attorney, Medicaid filing, a house sale, nursing home/assisted living advice and so much more. Chris is extremely professional, always accessible, easy to understand, and well-versed in elder law which can be very complicated in NY even down to the county level

My experience with Chris Bray was outstanding. He is professional, caring, and concerned. His ability to lead me through the difficult task of executor was incredible. I would recommend him without reservation for any legal advice.
