Review of R. Segear, Esq.

Robert C. Segear Esq. handled my Aunt's Estate in Orlando, Florida. I highly recommend Robert. I live in New Jersey and Robert made Florida's very complex Probate process smooth and efficient. Not only did Robert Segear do an excellent job with the Probate, he and his team helped with all the diff...iculties of selling my Aunt's Florida, "Homestead". Robert has a gift for helping clients comprehend the complexities of Florida Probate law. He was very accessible and prompt. Again, if you have any Estate issues in Florida, Robert is your guy! His office is in Miami but with e-filing he was able to handle my Orlando issues with no travel costs. His fair billing reflects his wealth of experience and expertise in his legal practice areas. In other legal matters I have had attorneys charge me for their "learning curve" to "research" answers to my questions. This was NOT the case with Robert Segear. Because of his keen intellect and many years of practicing law, Robert knew the answers to my questions without wasting my time or money. In fact Mr. Segear was able to save me money with his legal recommendations for my problems. Robert was truly a Blessing to myself and my Aunt's Heirs.

"I strongly endorse Rob Segear. Rob has both the legal knowledge and practical common sense needed to properly craft and implement an estate plan that is tailor fit to each individual or family. Rob gets to the point and makes the sometimes senseless legal and tax issues of estate planning understandable and manageable."
