Probate from out of town

I contacted Jacqueline Bowden Gold to help me through my Mother's estate. I do not live in Fla and needed someone that could work with me and settle this as my Mother died intestate with no will. Jackie helped answer all my questions and navigate through a legal process that I have never done before.... I had endless questions and she was always available to answer them and put me at ease as we went through the process. She was a blessing during this very difficult time and I would not hesitate to recommend her and her staff to anyone going through this.

Reliable, Professional

Probate was completely foreign word to me. I didnt understand it nor had I ever known anyone who had ever gone through this legal process. When my real estate attorney informed me I needed to hire a Probaate attorney in order to see a property I co-own with a sibling of mine, we both went into panic ...mode! We were recommended to this firm and we can both say, it was the biggest blessing. Jackie was so kind and patient with me....she was always available to me, either ia e-mail or text. Her staff was super helpful as well...I am so pleased. I recommend this law firm highly!
