Nicholas A. Giuditta, III
My name is Nick Giuditta. I represent individuals seeking advice in estate and tax planning, probate law , guardianship and related elder law matters. I have practiced law for more than 28 years and established a law firm in 2000 in Cranford and later moved my practice to Westfield. I regularly represent executors of estates, trustees and other fiduciaries either as an advocate in court or in connection with the administration of estates and trusts. I am commonly appointed by area judges to serve as administrator of estates and as guardian or counsel for those in need of such assistance.
I provide seminars to fellow attorneys in my capacity as co-chair of the Union County Bar Association’s Elder Law Committee. I also speak to various community based groups on the significance of proper estate planning including information about Wills, Powers of Attorney and Advance Directives.
