Thank you Attorney Kahl!

With starting work on my father's estate, I met with attorney Kahl for about an hour. She got me on the path of what forms were needed, how to get them filed and who to contact during the probate process. Without her help I would not have known what to do or how to proceed. A pleasure worki...ng with her!

Amazing!

Thank you Jennifer Kahl for the amazing help you gave to me and my sister. We needed advice and direction, and your expertise on elder law was on point. Your background with geriatrics was so helpful as this is a very emotional time for us. We will recommend you to all of our friends.

Estate Planning

Attorney Kahl has worked with our family for several years and we are so pleased with her knowledge and empathy. She helped us with my mother, who had to enter a nursing home and meet the qualifications for Medicaid. She helped with my in-laws who did not have any estate planning documents in order,... and because of their declining heath, needed to assign their daughter to be able to manage their health and estate. Finally, she helped my wife and I put together our estate planning documents because we did not want our adult children to have to go through the stress of not having the proper documents to manage our estate when the time comes. We cannot thank Attorney Kahl enough for her compassionate guidance and knowledge of what needed to be done to complete three very different and unique legal scenarios.

Last Will and Testament.

Mrs. Kahl was hired to re-write my Will after the death of my brother. She was able to inform me of things that I did not think of while undertaking the re-write. She was very informative, and knowledgeable, and very easy to talk with.

Estate, Title Transfer of timeshare

Jennifer and her staff were very efficient, conscientious of time and money, accessible and diligent. We had a family estate issue with a timeshare and Mrs. Kahl knew exactly what steps we needed to take to get the timeshare transferred and disposed of properly. We did all of this over the phone an...d computer as we live in another state. She has high integrity and is honest. Highly recommend her and her staff.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
