Wiil and Durable Power of Attorney

Ms. Dennison helped us with our will and power of attorney. She made the process easy and was very reasonably priced.

Wills

I hired Carole Dennison to compose a will. She went above and beyond what I expected. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and kind. I can’t say enough about her and her staff! After the first consultation I, along with my parents, knew we could trust Carole!!! Brandi was exceptionally he...lpful as she fielded my questions in between appointments!!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
