Being New England estate planning attorneys means we regularly have clients who have vacation homes and family members in bordering states. Bill is my go-to guy in Maine. He has assisted many of my clients with transfers of their property in Maine to their MA trusts as well as doing comprehensive estate plans for my MA clients' Maine relatives. Bill is smart, friendly, down to earth, and everyone I have referred his way has made a special point of thanking me for the great referral.

I endorse Bill Smyth! Bill is hardworking, honest, thorough, and highly skilled in sophisticated estate planning matters, plus he's a really nice guy who truly cares about his clients.
I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with Bill on several estate planning/probate matters. The quality of his work is outstanding! I love working with him. Makes our job so much easier when you are working with a professional!

Bill Smyth is an excellent attorney. I have known Bill for a number of years and can say without hesitation that he knows the law and serves his clients diligently. Not only does Bill know the law, but he is incredibly personable. You can not go wrong in hiring Bill. I heartily endorse him. Jim Voeller

Bill is an attorney I have known for the last several years sharing a variety of continuing education classes. While Bill may be from the far north (Maine) his skills and expertise translate to lower New England. I consider him a valuable ally in navigating the problems both our clients face. Bill's heightened understanding of complex issues involving gun trusts and asset protection make him the perfect person to swap new techniques or ideas with. I would recommend a client to Bill without hesitation and look forward to continuing and expanding our relationship over the next 20 years.
