Great firm to work with

Have been mostly satisfied with the services I have received. My only thing that I have had a slight issue with is that I have had to initiate my Planniversary consultation once or twice.

Posted by Randal | July 30, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Very pleased with the outcome.

My experience with Life and Legacy Counselors perfectly aligned with my approach to business. Creating my estate plan was a crucial task, and through multiple meetings and touchpoints, we successfully implemented a plan that fit my desires. I highly recommend this firm. My prior research and discussi...ons with all members of the firm were consistently positive.  Overall, I had an excellent experience, and I would recommend this firm.

Wonderful Firm to work with for Estate Planning

Ms. Griffin handled my estate planning, and I can't express enough how thorough and straightforward the process was. At every step, Ms. Griffin and her team ensured that I understood everything and that all of my wishes were clearly documented. I feel so much more at ease knowing that my family won’t... have to guess about my preferences. If anyone is unsure or doesn’t know where to begin, I highly recommend seeking a consultation with Life and Legacy. It’s worth both your time and money.

Service review

The time and attention paid to understand and appreciate my life's situation was excellent. Thus, I felt pretty confident in how to move forward with my estate planning. She and her colleagues asked the right questions and were very thorough and detailed -- often reconfirmed many critical issues t...o make sure things were really as I intended them to be.

Thorough and well-explained documents and process

Aimee and her team were very thorough with all of the necessary documents. Even when I wanted to change the Trust and its goals significantly, she provided the best way to write it clearly as I intended. The signing process with my family was seamlessly executed with her team. Excellent expertise.
