A Very Fine Attorney

I highly recommend the legal services of Steve Plaisted. He is highly knowledgeable about Maryland estate planning law. I used his services to write a trust, wills and POAs in order to get things in order for my husband and me as we rapidly approach our senior years. I have also had the opportunit...y to know him over many years (as my neighbor) and can say he is truly a person of strong moral character. He is sincere and easy to work with. Steve operates with integrity, dedication and is very thorough. I felt we were in very good hands under his legal guidance,

We toss around this word "trust" but you can truly trust Steve.

Before finding an attorney, I spent a good deal of time researching my options. Steve exceeded my expectations. To be clear, Steve has a Christian focus but I went with Steve because of his absolute command of the law and the process. He is remarkably good at what he does and I would trust Steve w...ith any dispute I am confronting. Steve is also very practical and will listen to your concerns and develop a plan that takes your concerns into consideration. Steve is absolutely fantastic.

True Servant for His Clients

Today I would like to honor a special man, Steve Plaisted, who has been a good friend for over 20 years. Out of our friendship, we developed a client-attorney relationship that served me so well in my greatest time of need. Steve’s calm demeanor and excellent work ethic helped my case get resolved sa...tisfactorily. I will eternally be thankful for you, Steve, and congratulate you for 30 years of excellent service to your clients! God bless you my friend!

Extremely grateful

Steve’s legal services and personal advice have been a great blessing to my life, and Steve and Pam’s prayers for me (when I was at their house preparing estate documents) were very strengthening. I love the all-encompassing approach to law. May the Lord richly bless Steve and Pam in all they put the...ir hands to accomplish.

Recommended without reservation

We had Steve prepare our will and a trust to protect the future of our children. If you are looking for a cookie cutter will to simply transfer your wealth you can probably find that from any lawyer or an online service. If you want a lawyer who will help you not only pass on your financial legacy, b...ut your values, then you would be well served to consider Steve. He and his wife Pam worked with us as to create a will and trust that not only protected the financial well being of our children, but much more importantly, a will that captures our values and hopes. I highly recommend Steve and couldn't be happier with the wording of our will and trust.
