Areas of Practice

---

Individuals often face predatory and deceptive treatment after arrest from law enforcement officers seeking evidence.  Although many have heard of the “right to remain silent”, few understand the importance of doing so, or the perils of speaking with police officers who don't have your interests at heart.  A felony or misdemeanor conviction can alter the course of a defendant’s life forever.

Fortunately, I have a detailed understanding of the criminal justice system and am here to fight for you.  If you find yourself under arrest and facing felony or misdemeanor charges, first exercise your right to remain silent.  Secondly, pick up the phone and call Daniel J. Tarantino at (716) 864-3485.

There are few financial transactions as significant as the transfer of real property.  Each contract contains its own deadlines and pitfalls, and it is vital to ensure your interests are protected by an experienced professional.  Having closed nearly one thousand commercial and residential real estate transactions, I would be happy to assist you (or your business) with this sometimes-arduous process. 

My services include pre-sale/pre-purchase advice, drafting and review of contracts, offers and negotiations, financing/refinancing, title work, and closings.  I also assist clients with other areas of real estate and property law including:

• Assessment Challenges
• Foreclosure
• Deed Transfers
• Easements
• Brokerage Services through Tarantino Real Estate Services, LLC

Understanding my clients’ estate planning needs starts with careful attention to detail. I prepare wills, trusts, powers of attorney, health care proxies, and living wills to meet a range of goals, such as avoiding probate, saving on taxes, setting up guardianships and trusts for children or others, and ensuring assets are distributed according to their wishes.  

Losing a loved one is always hard, and the added responsibility of managing their affairs can make it even more overwhelming. That’s why having a knowledgeable, compassionate professional by your side is so important. I assist Executors, Administrators, and Trustees in probating wills, administering estates, and distributing trusts, and I would be honored to guide you through this challenging time.
