A True Pleasure to Work With

It is with the utmost confidence that I recommend Attorney Lynn A. Buskey. After a family member suddenly passed, we soon realized his estate would be rather difficult. With so much dependent on the outcome of this estate, I needed an attorney with the experience and confidence to handle this, and ...was ultimately referred to Lynn by a close friend of the family. As nearly all attorneys claim to "provide personalized attention and timely response", most of them do not deliver on this - they often take long periods of time to respond and make your case seem of minimal importance. I learned very quickly that this was not the way Lynn worked. I have found her to be one of the few attorneys out there who truly takes pride in her work as she always responded quickly, kept me updated every step of the way, and clearly outlined what steps I needed to take. I was quite astonished with how fluid she made this seemingly difficult process, she truly has a talent for it. As I was not very familiar with the whole probate process when we started, she was extremely patient with me and took the time to explain everything in ways I could easily comprehend. Saying our case was "complex" would be a vast understatement, but Lynn handled it with grace and the outcome of the estate has provided incredible peace of mind and security for me and my family's future. I was so enthused to work with her that I felt compelled to ask her if she would allow me write this testimonial for her! My family and I extend our utmost gratitude for having Lynn and her team take care of us. Thank you many times again.

A Trusted Resource

We have worked with Lynn on will, trust, homestead, and power of attorney documentation. In addition, Lynn has been a valuable resource in helping me establish a business, and in reviewing and negotiating contracts. I recommend her to friends and coworkers on a regular basis. She is hardworking, d...own-to-earth, and very responsive. A true professional.

Will and Trust

Lynn has been my estate planning attorney for 6 years and has always done an outstanding job of providing exceptional planning . She makes the process easy and most importantly understandable. I just had to re-do my will and trust after a divorce and she turned it around quickly and explained everyth...ing thoroughly.
