This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Knowledgeable about wills, trusts, probate, estates

Knowledgeable attorney with reasonable fees and friendly staff. Tom Upchurch has helped us with my mother's will and trust, and going through probate. He has also written the wills and trust documents for my husband and me. Local and very pleasant to work with. Highly recommend.

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.
