Rose among Thorns

How lucky we were to hire Denny Fraser...He is a Rose among Thorns, He helped us with a Will and setting up a trust....So very Compassionate and Knowledgeable. Helped make a extremely difficult time go very smoothly. He helped us make extremely hard decisions and gave us sound advice. We went i...nto his office dreading the experience and left with heartfelt thanks, and even had a few laughs. I think of Denny Fraser not as an attorney but as a friend, after our first meeting. He is a very special man, and an excellent attorney. Highly Recommend.

Alice, Thank you so much for the kind words. It was truly special and enjoyable meeting with you and Frank. I was so saddened to learn today of Frank's passing. In our brief couple of meetings, it truly seemed like we became old friends. Had fun talking about his 64.5 Mustang and my experience working for the company that built Queens Grant condos back in 1973. We have been including Frank and you in our dinnertime prayer, asking that when the time comes that he be welcomed home. I know he is there now. Much love and God bless - The Frasers

Wonderful Experience

I recently had to update my will and set up a trust. Mr Fraser took the time to explain everything and answer all of my questions. It was like working with a friend who cared

Denny Fraser gets five stars

Mr. Fraser completed our wills, power of attorney, and health directives. He was highly recommended. We are happy we turned to him. He is friendly, efficient and reasonably priced.

Thanks for the kind words Deborah. It was a great pleasure to meet and get to know you and work on getting your estate matters just as you want them. Wishing you the best. Denny

Look no further...Denny should be your lawyer!

I wish I’d found this site before hiring my first lawyer in Hilton Head...it would have potentially saved me time and aggravation. Denny, on the other hand, has been a pleasure to work with and has “jumped through hoops” to get things done on schedule. Yes, stop looking and call Denny.

Hi Gil. You could be a one man marketing team. I had so much fun working on your project, getting it to conclusion on time, and most importantly getting to meet you both when here on HHI. I will always cherish the thoughtful gifts, which I show off often. Very best regards, and hope to see you again. Denny

Highly recommended!

We found Mr. Fraser to be very professional, efficient and knowledgeable. Mr. Fraser completed our wills, power of attorney, and health directives in a very timely manner. When questions and concerns arrived years later, he was very responsive and helpful. I feel he is very trustworthy, compassion...ate, and a pleasure to work with.

Avvo Rating

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.
