Forwarding thinking attorney - Elder Law
Taking care of an elderly parent can present some major challenges. As they get older, the decisions one must make get tougher and tougher. That is why you need an attorney who is forward thinking with knowledge of potential issues before they arise. It is so much better to be proactive - rather...

Very helpful
Offered great advice on multiple occasions. A real gem. Very kind to a very elderly relative and understanding of some serious family issues.

Much worse than than curt and dismissive.......
Several main problems that I can go through in detail by memory. My first impression was of her berating a young intern or employee to the point of tears in public. Then I learned it wasn't just employees, it was clients. Eldercare clients. Then I learned it included me, an eldercare client payi...
I am very surprised by your comments. All of us, attorneys and staff alike, take great care in respecting our clients and doing everything possible to make their lives easier, especially when dealing with emotional situations. That is why we are in this practice in the first place. By the way, our entire team of dedicated professionals has been with us for many years. As for the fees you quoted, I am baffled. Our firm has never charged anything even close to the amounts you cited. As you did not sign your name to your comments, I am at a loss to recall your case. Clearly, it must have been more than seven years ago. We do shred files of completed cases (of which all clients are informed in advance) after seven years as one additional way to maintain their security and privacy. I hope your mother is doing well.

Curt and dismissive
I had questions about pricing and a few other things. I was transferred to Lina Eliovson. We talked for a short while and she said, "We are probably not the law firm for you....good bye." Wow! I am kind of shocked and now wondering if these reviews are just fake because so many are so very high. How ...
In response to your post, my sincere apologies. We spoke at some length. After our discussion, it became apparent you were not looking for legal counseling, but rather for a Notary. Therefore, it appeared that we were not the firm for you.
"I endorse Linda based on her dedication to the practice of law. I have known her for more than 30 years. Linda is ethical, honest, and strives to protect and promote her clients' interests."
"Atty Eliovson is a caring and tough as nails attorney. She is straightforward with all parties and does exactly as she says she will. Her knowledge in this area is superb."
