Shilinski

Michael Shilinski has handled both my will and power of attorney files and was my also my real estate attorney for my recent home purchase. Michael was extremely organized and professional while being very easy to work with. He answered all emails and calls promptly and was always available for sup...port when needed. He made both processes very smooth and stress free for my wife and I. I would highly recommend Michael and will certainly use him again in the future when needed.

Everything was smooth - exactly what you'd want!

Michael handled my mom's will, power of attorney and health care proxy and then after she passed handled the probate of her estate. The documents he prepared worked exactly as one would want, allowing me to handle my mom's affairs after she fell ill. Michael was always extremely responsive and coord...inated well with my other family members. The probate process was smooth and there were absolutely no hiccups. I always felt well-informed at every step of the way and Michael was highly responsive to any requests for information or clarification that I had. I recommend him without hesitation.

Great lawyer to handle your estate planning needs!

Michael hired my grandparents wills, living wills, power of attorneys, and health care proxies. He was compassionate, knowledgeable and went the extra mile. I would recommend Michael without hesitation!

Avvo Rating

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.
