Wish I knew her sooner!

Melanie is so laid back and approachable. I had gone to another lawyer for estate planning and didn't want to return for a needed update because of some issues we had with him. I was referred to Melanie and wish I had gone to her first!! She is super knowledgeable and communicates in everyday lang...uage that made it really easy to understand what needed to be done. Her fees are also reasonable for the outstanding value she provides. I highly recommend Melanie for any estate planning, wills, etc. and anything else she can help with!

Knowledgeable, Compassionate and 5 star service

Attorney Levan helped me understand the emotional process of will planning, setting up a power of attorney and all related matters. I am very grateful and thankful to luck out on being one of her clients now!

Thank you Melanie!

Melanie prepared our wills, power of attorney and living wills. She helped us understand the legalities of irrevocable trusts, income only trusts and grantor trusts. She answered many, many questions we had with explanations that we could understand. She was very patient with us and helped us feel... comfortable with our decisions going forward. We would most definitely recommend Melanie to anyone interested in a knowledgeable, patient and friendly attorney. Thank you Melanie.

Real estate and estate planning

We hired Melanie a few years back to help us get our estate in order after we had children. She was very informative and great to work with. We tracked her down and hired her again for our recent sale of our home. Things couldn’t have gone smoother. Melanie is the best and we highly recommend her!
