Excellent Estate Planning Process

Guy was wonderful to work with on our estate planning/will process, something we were doing for the first time. Extremely helpful & knowledgeable in answering all questions in understandable terms and creating a plan that worked for our needs. Would highly recommend for anyone at any stage of the e...state planning process.

Will/Estate Trust Preparation

Guy Bowe our attorney did our full estate planning for my husband and I. He was very through, easy to talk to, very upfront and knowledgable about our specific needs and plans. Our meetings (via Zoom) were effortless. He walked through all the steps, adding in some humor and ease that no other attorn...ey has ever displayed before like this. I was very glad we were guided to him and in utilizing our ARAG insurance benefit was a breeze. The planning, execution and preparation all went seemlessly. Despite his (Covid) experience which was unforeseen. He's an attorney we'd not hesitate to refer anyone to for these matters. Great job and nothing but FIVE STARS for our experience on this. Thanks Guy job well done!!!!

Thoughtful Approach to Estate Planning

My wife and I recently engaged with Guy Bowe to update our estate plans and to take into consideration the dynamics of our blended family. Guy’s approach is very consultative and he takes a great deal of time and care to understand your concerns and provide his legal recommendations and options. The ...entire process was seamless from start to finish and he was always available to answer any questions my wife and I may have had. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a thorough and also thoughtful approach to estate planning.

Excellent Experience

I came to Guy Bowe because I needed advice on a variety of issues. I had a huge issue with a family trust in which the trustee was not following the rules in the trust document, and I did not know how to proceed. Guy gave me great advice that was also sensitive to the fact that this is a family matte...r and the trustee was my father. He also gave me advice regarding an estate matter/spousal lifetime trusts and how to make changes from a tax planning perspective. Every interaction I've had with Guy has been professional and respectful, yet informative and personal. I have/will continue to refer him to friends/acquaintances that need trust/estate services. I wish he practiced in more areas of law so I could hire him for all my legal needs.

Excellent Service

We found Guy to be an excellent attorney. We engaged him to provide advice on setting up some basic estate planning. Guy was very affable and insightful during our calls, helped us focus on the right plans for our needs, produced the draft and final documents on time, and helped facilitate their ex...ecution quickly. We would use him again for legal services and would highly recommend him.
