Professional

Klepak did an outstanding job of providing education and customized guidelines for my estate planning. I definitely recommend him. He is easy to work with and gives detailed instructions.

Probating Will

Mr. Gary Klepak helped us write our wills many years ago. My husband died on 2-5-2023 and Mr Klepak probated his will for me. He and his wife did an excellent job! I recommend him to any one needing an attorney.

Posted by Rob | June 07, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Wills & Living Wills

Professional and friendly

Working the Attorney Klepak's office was a real pleasure from start to finish. Both him and his wife are both very friendly yet professional. Everything was done quickly and they made the process of setting up mine and my wife's wills and other documents very easy. If you are in need of someone wh...o gets the job done right at a fair price then this is the office for you. I will definitely be recommending this practice to anyone who has a need.

Probate

The past few years have been extremely emotional for me in losing both of my parents and my brother. Understanding that my parents did not have a living will, I needed to seek out an attorney for assistance with probate. I am so fortunate that I came across Mr. Klepak information passing by his offic...e in Columbus, Ga. His team is very nice and professional, provided guidance and assisted me through the entire process at an affordable price. I will recommend and refer all my family members and friends in need of his assistance. Thank you so much for your help. Larry

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.
