Horrible, horrible. Please find another attorney if you are looking. Made a stressful situation and sad time in my life even worse by not returning multiple calls/emails and not following through with promises.. When I left a negative review on Google, he said he would help me and he would not charge me to send the demand letter if I removed the review. I did and then later received an invoice. He said he would help me again but a month passed without response to multiple emails. I can go on and on but it seems others have had similar experiences. Please do not support this sort of practice.

Mr. Puma is incompetent as a CPA AND as a fiduciary officer. His accounting is inexplicable even to other accountants and contains obvious arithmetic errors and deceit by both commission and omission. As a fiduciary officer (personal representative) Puma is willful, doing whatever he wishes without regard for the recorded wishes of the deceased or the well being of the heirs. He is a scofflaw who gets away with violating probate law because the appointing judge does not wish to appear wrong for appointing him. Devoid of censure from the "self-regulating" legal profession, Puma has devolved from the "skirts illegal behavior" noted by the previous reviewer to full-blown and unabashed violation of probate law proven in court by the current reviewer. I would warn anyone not to hire Puma for anything important and judges not to appoint him for any position of trust. Bruce Puma, Esq. is untrustworthy; as a personal representative he has proven to be a scourge to grieving heirs.

If you're looking for a lawyer who lies to you and your family, rarely answers an email or a phone call, wastes family money without authorization, badgers your elderly parent, goes all caps YELLING at you, drags his feet on everything, tiptoes right on the edge of doing unlawful things, this is your guy. I wouldn't hire this man for dog catcher.

If you are a conservator working with this attorney, just make sure an accounting has been filed with the court. Make sure you receive any reports or other documents mentioning you in order that can you represent your point of view. Hopefully, this issue only pertained to me and it was an oversight or other logical explanation.

Mr. Puma did not seem to know answers to many of our questions. He often seemed to be faking his way. Moreover, he was very unresponsive. He did not keep us appraised of the status of our case. We had to ask multiple times for documents that should have been sent automatically. Some he NEVER sent. We would NOT recommend him to anyone!!!!

took superiors knowledge and took as his own and charged me multiple times for this knowledge for which I already paid His service (which I can't call it service) was the worst I have encountered in all my years. Please do not do business with him. This man is something I would not wish on anyone. He is ill.
