Good morning, Facebook Friends,

You may have noticed something new—JTG, LLC has a fresh logo and a new look! After transitioning from four partners to three, we reached a pivotal moment in our journey.

We’ve grown as a firm, but our brand hadn’t kept up—until now.

Our previous identity didn’t fully capture the authority, cohesion, and expertise that define the matters we handle every day. It was time for a more refined presence—one that truly reflects our strength, stability, and top-tier positioning, without any excess.

This isn’t just a new logo. It’s a strategic repositioning for JTG, LLC, and we’re excited to share it with you.

Good Morning FB friends! Thank you to our very kind client who left this five star review of Attorney Drake Shunneson.

“Followed my attorney Drake Shunneson to this firm. Worked with Drake through a 2 year trial with my ex-husband and he won a very hard case - to the great benefit of my children. Although I am frustrated to be in court again, I am completely confident that I am in the right hands to get the best possible outcome. He gives realistic no-nonsense analysis of your case, and does not play the usual games that drive up your costs and accomplish nothing. I hope they would never need him, but recommend him to any of my family and friends. Also very pleased with office staff at this firm. They have been great at communication and ease with contact paperwork/understanding of fee structure.”

Happy Friday! Thank you to our client who left this recent five star review of Attorney Robert Tomei:

Was referred to Rob Tomei Jr. by my financial planner for a real estate transaction and could not be happier with the outcome. He had a great support team in place and all communication was fast, accurate, and very detailed. He and the whole team made me feel like I was their top priority! Absolutely recommend. Thanks!

Hello Facebook friends! Here’s another 5 star review left by a wonderful client for Attorney Stella Day:

When one needs an attorney, usually there is already a difficult circumstance, so people are stressed or critical. My family needed help for legal matters for an elderly person and Attorney Stella Day was a great choice. We had an informative first meeting and things went as expected and fees were reasonable. Thank you.

Happy Monday! A warm thank you to our client who left this review of Michael Goldberg.

"My husband and I loved our experience here! We were drawing up estate documents, which I kept thinking would be an overwhelming process, but Michael Goldberg made it very easy. We had an initial Zoom call for him to get information. He was very easy to get a hold of to ask questions. They drew up the documents, and we went in to sign and ask last-minute questions. Dare I say, the estate-planning process was actually enjoyable. If anyone I know is looking to do estate planning, I would definitely refer people here."

Good Afternoon! Thank you to our wonderful client who left this 5 star review of our attorney Michael Goldberg.

"We found JTLG and Michael Goldberg through MetLife Legal and chose him based on the great reviews and experience in estate planning. Michael was a delight to work with, he was understanding, patient and thoroughly answered all our questions both specific to our needs as well as the basics. For something that we have been meaning/dreading to do for some time, Michael put our minds at ease and tailored an estate plan specifically for our family which included a trust, living will, power of attorney for property & healthcare, HIPAA authorization and deed transfer.
All we can say is thank you Michael for a great experience in putting our plan documents together and all the follow up in its ex*****on. My wife & I would highly recommend Michael for their estate planning needs. We would also like to thank Michael’s paralegal, Payton for her prompt follow up & assistance in arranging meetings especially with our financial advisor."
