  • I asked the lawyer to help me trace where my father was born in Hungary. The lawyer was very diligent and took up my request right away, since there was not much time before I travelled to Hungary. Sadly we did not manage to find the address, and that was in no way his fault: the records in Mezafalva lacked the information needed from the mid 1930s. Still, I highly recommend this service, and him in particular.
