Ultimately, Wills, trusts, other aspects of tax and estate planning, contracts, and litigation matter only because they have such a profound, sweeping impact on the lives of real human beings and families. We never forget that essential truth at the Pohl Law Group in Manhattan.
Our founding attorney Ronald S. Pohl has credentials ideally suited to the challenges he addresses for clients. He has been practicing law since 1984, amassing extensive experience resolving complex inheritance disputes, other trust and estate concerns, and business and real estate matters. Among other honors, he has been selected for inclusion in New York Metro Super Lawyers for 2011, 2013-2016.
A defining period in Ron Pohl's career began when he met Julius Burger, a composer whose dreams centered on ensuring his music would endure and providing financial support to young musicians. What Ron helped Mr. Burger accomplish was chronicled in a Parade magazine feature and on ABC News' "Person of the Week" segment with the late Peter Jennings.
At age 91, Julius Burger came to Ron Pohl to settle his wife’s estate. Bereaved and alone, he lamented that he would never realize his life’s dream of hearing his orchestral compositions performed. While the estate was easily administered, the other mission Mr. Pohl embraced was the fulfillment of this dream. Nine months later, Mr. Burger entered a full house at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall to hear his music performed.
