My Personal Review of Mr. Strickland

I hired William Strickland, Attorney, to work with me in establishing an estate plan portfolio in December, 2010. My objective was to replace the Will that was in place soon after my wife's death in 2009. I wanted an attorney that could produce a living trust which would assure me comfort and secu...rity knowing that my will would, in deed, be fulfilled. Mr. Strickland was very professional in taking the time to be ever mindful of what it was I wanted accomplished. His thoughtful insistence enabled me to gain a wealth of confidence on how he proceeded. It is now approximately seven years that I have known Mr. Strickland, meeting with him to occasionally review or amend the living trust. Recently we have agreed to revisit the trust annually. This assures me I am doing the right thing as time passes. In my opinion, I am working with a sensitive man who is totally trustworthy.

Sample of Legal Cases

Jane and John Doe

We recommended an irrevocable trust to protect the proceeds of the sale and provide income to husband and wife, set up their trusted son as trustee, avoid probate, and allow their designee to have full authority in case of disability.

Jane and John Doe

We filed a petition for guardianship, obtained an appropriate placement, and protected wife's assets in the process.

Jane and John Doe

After an administrative hearing, a substantial portion of husband's income was directed first to his wife, and she was able to pay her bills and protect the value of their home.
