It really is a wait and see on each palm. Do have someone come trim them, but be sure they know what they're doing -- if there is even a hint of green on the frond, it should not be cut away until it has turned totally brown. Once trimmed, if new growth starts, the palm hasn't died and will come back. Who knows, you might even have a beautiful palm by October again.
