Very Professional and Overall Great Experience!

Matthew Reinaker is a very personable and professional lawyer. I had him prepare my will. Nobody looks forward to creating their will, but Mr. Reinaker made the experience very easy and convenient by coming to my house and business to complete the necessary steps. This saved me from taking time off o...f work and he was very accommodating of my busy schedule. I highly recommend his services!

Matt Reinaker: Knowledgeable, Organized and Professional

We hired Matt to write our medical directives, powers of attorney and last will and trust documents. Matt was extremely punctual, organized and knowledgeable. Matt conducts himself with the utmost professionalism. He was extremely well organized and explained every step of the process as well as o...ur options, and what would be best recommended for our own personal situation. We are comforted knowing that this exercise is done and has been done well and with Matt's expert care and attention.

Patience and Follow Through

I was referred to Matt by someone in the banking industry and it was the best referral I have received for such an important plan. Matt was great to work with. He took the time to meet with me and answer all of my, seemingly never ending, questions and then drew up my legal documents for a will. He w...as consistent in his follow up and follow through on completing the documents. Matt was fabulous to work with, very patient, kind and reasonably priced. I would recommend Matt to anyone looking for will or estate planning.

Competent and convenient

Matt came to our house and made the estate planning process painless. I was eight months pregnant and wanted to get everything in place before I went to the hospital. Matt made things clear, even with our complicated finances and businesses and multiple moving parts. Highly recommend!

Exemplary Service

Matt is a consummate professional who adheres to the strictest of moral and ethical standards. Matt made the often difficult and sensitive task of estate planning and will creation and documentation easy and relatively stress free. Matt's unique business model provides a level of detailed service bas...ed on individualized needs that cannot be replicated by a large law firm. I would strongly recommend Matt to anyone in need of a will & estate lawyer.
