Posted by David | August 11, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Peace of Mind is a beautiful thing!

After procrastinating for many years about getting my estate plan in order, I finally decided to get down to business. I was referred to Randy Doane of Doane & Doane, PA by a friend. I was glad to note they possessed all my base-line requirements: Board Certified in Wills, Trust and Estates, taxat...ion experience, excellent reputation, firmly planted in the area, boutique atmosphere, convenient location and initial consultations were complimentary. I arrived with the pre-conceived notion that my particular situation was somewhat convoluted. I was sure estate planning would pose a tremendous challenge. At my initial consultation, I had a chance to present my situation and verbalize my anxieties. Within that first meeting, Doane & Doane presented me with recommendations, options and fees. Because of their knowledge and expertise, my presumed difficulties were readily resolved. I was able to finalize my estate plan within a couple of weeks. It turned out to be a pleasant and informative experience. I have been back to Doane & Doane, PA a few times over the years to integrate into my plan some life changes that have occurred. Always .. . I am met with great care and concern for my overall situation and ultimate satisfaction. Always . . . I leave with the precious gift they promise at the first meeting: Peace of Mind! When I cross their threshold, I am often a glass-half-empty sort of fellow because that’s just who I am. When I leave the offices of Doane & Doane, PA, I am definitely transitioned into a glass-half-full sort of guy because I know the legacy I worked so hard to accumulate all my life will follow the path I desire. Thanks, Doane & Doane, PA. Peace of Mind is a beautiful thing!

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.
