Comprehensive family planning done well

Doug Fendrick and his staff were very professional and competent! They made the uncomfortable topic of estate planning easy on me and my wife. As an attorney I would definitely recommend them for your legal needs.

Happy client

Doug Fendrick is the ultimate professional. He went out of his way to update my will and deliver it to my door, along with 2 other staff members (All wearing masks and social distancing), including a notary. He made it easy for me to feel that I accomplished my goal. I thank he and his colleagues f...or their caring and reliable work.

Doug Fendrick was fantastic!

Doug was referred to us by good friends who had used him for eldercare estate planning twice. My parents & I met with him twice to have new wills & estate trusts prepared and he was very easy to talk to and had answers to all of our questions. He took all the time necessary to explain things and go... over recommendations that he had to address our concerns and wishes. My parents loved the way they were treated and guided in the estate planning process. They now have excellent plans & documents in place to handle their affairs and estate. His office staff were very helpful as well and treated us like royalty. We have already recommended Doug to a childhood friend of my father's who is looking to duplicate what we did and we will absolutely recommend them again! Thanks again to Doug & his wonderful staff, especially Jennifer Blake, for all of their help in navigating the tricky and scary estate planning process that most seniors are hesitant to undertake before something happens and they are unable to. Keep up the good work Doug!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
