Highly Recommend

The entire team was courteous, professional, knowledgeable, and above all, respected my time. I highly recommend their services and will use them for any future estate planning needs.

Hire them. You won't regret it.

I am so very impressed with this law firm. Not only are they very professional, but they are personable and caring as well. I felt like Lynee Muchinson (who is a superstar!) and her team held my hand every step of the way as they walked me through each step. Lynee is very knowledgeable and very t...horough. All of these qualities are necessary when dealing with such an emotional decision. I feel a weight lifted off my shoulders and at peace. I have since referred five of my loved ones (family and friends) to the Adams Law Office.

Recommend Adams Law Office for Legacy Planning

Working with Adams Law Office on Estate/Legacy planning was a wonderful experience. Ava is a very knowledgeable attorney. Her and her staff are very responsive and professional. She takes the time to explain everything and walks you through the process. I received other quotes but Adams Law office p...rices were more affordable for the services received. I definitely recommend Ava and Adams Law office for your Legacy Planning needs.

Estate Planning Pros

I was in search of a legal firm to assist me with preparing an estate plan. I'm very thankful that the Adams Law Office assisted me with this service. The office staff was professional and friendly. My attorney, Carolyn Truby, and her team took care of assisting me with preparing my estate plan do...cuments. I am very grateful for all of their hard work, as well as their expertise. I would definitely recommend this law firm to others.

  • 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.
