Competent and Compassionate

During the pandemic, a time of unique challenges, I was highly recommended by a trusted attorney to St.Clair & Associates, Attorney Jeffrey St. Clair. My initial and subsequent contacts with Mr. St. Clair were held remotely via telephone and, simultaneously, via e-mail. He prepared a complicated, m...ultifaceted Will, ancillary legal documentation and, testimonials to support diverse, sound options. Mr. St. Clair was very receptive to my calls, patiently answered all questions and legally simplified what I considered a very complex situation.. Our contacts were timesaving, held with ease, and minimized the need for frequent face-to-face office visits. I highly recommend this law firm with confidence in your complete satisfaction with it, its support staff and services. Mr. St.Clair is a personable, experienced, competent, knowledgeable attorney. I thoroughly appreciate and trust his judgment and will consider using him for future legal needs.

Professional and effective attorney

Mr. St. Clair helped me with my estate issues. He was very reassuring and clear about every step of the process. He was very good at calling me back and being available - something that has been lacking in my other interactions with lawyers. Mr. St. Clair really made me feel like he cared about my... case. He got me the outcome I was hoping for, which I am so grateful for. He really is a top notch attorney, I am so happy I found him, he made a stressful experience manageable. I would definitely use him again in the future.

Top Notch Estates/Trusts Lawyer

Jeff is an incredible attorney that regularly exceeds his clients' expectations. I have witnessed his work first hand as a client of his for probate/estates matters as well as through my role as a colleague. I personally recommend him to anyone that I meet in need of estates/trusts/probate matters ...and whole-heartedly encourage anyone reading this post to do the same. You won't be sorry!

Knowledgeable Lawyer

I hired Mr. St. Clair to prepare my will and health care proxy. He did this for me twice over the years. He prepared all the documents in a timely manner. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who needs these types of documents prepared. He has great advice in this area. He also provides you wi...th options which is very nice.

Will

Jeff St. Clair is a wonderful attorney. I went to him to do my Will. Wow, I leaned so much I didn't know about the process. I thought it was a one two three thing, well it is but he explained the one two three. He explained the difference between a Living Will vs. a Will. I thought I could do th...is thing myself but I'm glad I choose him. I recommend him Highly. Respectful, helpful, informative and personable, thats Jeff St Clair. Thanks for all your help.
