Great Estate Planner in Sussex County

It was very hard to find an Estate Planning attorney in this area. Mr. Tipton was very open and understanding to our unique planning needs. We felt very comfortable through out the whole process. Mr. Tipton even made a house call when my partner was too ill to make one of our meetings. I recomm...end using Mr. Tipton and have told many friends to use his services.

We are very happy with Mr. Tipton at Bear Law

Mr. Tipton was great to work with. He was very professional and knowledgeable. I had a tricky situation with my son who has special needs. Mr. Tipton was able to provide a great solution that provided me with great piece of mind that everyone will be taken care of if a pass way. I would highly... recommend the use of Bear Law.

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.
