Tonisha Brooks

Paralegal

Toni Brooks has been a paralegal for more than 15 years and involved with estate administration for much of that time. During what is often one of the most difficult times in a family’s life, Toni meticulously helps guide our families through the process of managing their loved one’s affairs.

On the client’s behalf, Toni helps manage the decedent’s assets and communicates with all financial institutions, brokerage firms, and lending houses. She then assists with the preparation of NJ Estate and Inheritance tax returns. Once all aspects of the estate have been addressed and the Inheritance/Estate tax liability (if applicable) has been paid, Toni will also help with the distribution of the assets according to the provisions of the Will.

Toni understands all too well what our clients are going through: she took on the responsibility of managing her own mother’s estate when she passed away a few years ago.

Toni serves each of our clients as if they were one of her own family members. She recognizes her availability to our families is an essential part of the estate administration process. As such, Toni ensures that she is available to our clients via phone, email, and conferences throughout the entire administration of the estate.

Toni is also a Certified Dementia Practitioner.

What our clients are saying

I am writing to you in regard to the wonderful job performed by NJ Elder Care Law Center. They were particularly good at explaining the step-by-step tasks that I had to do in order to find a good nursing home for my wife. I know that I would not have been able to navigate successfully through the Medicaid system without their guidance and help.

- Bruce M.

I wanted to extend my gratitude for your assistance, advice and knowledge in elder law to help my father’s estate and Medicaid Application come to fruition.

- Cindy

NJ Elder Care Law Center had prepared my personal senior citizen's legal papers very efficiently and in a language easy to understand by a person without a legal background.

- John Z.

I was impressed that NJ Elder Care Law Center took considerable time doing a free consultation to clearly explain their service, and offered advice on how we should proceed with my elderly mother's care. I never realized how complicated and costly elder care can be. My siblings and I are grateful and at ease that we have the NJ Elder Care Law Center guiding us through the maze of elder care law now and into the future.
