This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Trustworthy and straight forward lawyer with an office dog

Roger has been my family's attorney for over 25+ years. He started with my father's estate and will and I have moved to use his expertise in creating my will and estate. Roger is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of will and trusts and stays updated with all new tax changes that occur to insure ...you make the best decisions for your family. Roger will carefully explain the process and answer questions in a way to make sure you understand the process completely. I personally recommend Roger for all your will & trust needs. BTW> he has an office dog (his pet dog "Lacy") that he keeps there and she really is so friendly, I notice my anxiety disappeared when Lacy would come in and greet us.

Extremely knowledgeable and professional

Mr. Hurd was referred to us by a friend as well our financial advisor. Mr. Hurd is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. Like many, we avoided completing our estate planning for years. Mr. Hurd and his staff put us at ease and we feel extremely confident in his work.

Excellent Attorney

Roger is exceptionally knowledgeable in areas of Trusts, Wills, Estates (including Probate) as well as General Counsel. His staff handled Probate concerns and the development of our family Wills with excellence and ease.

Attorney to Avoid

Steer clear of this attorney. Not only is he haughty and dismissive. He has a poor grasp on this area of the law. He is not open to input from potential clients. He talked about his upcoming vacation and how he could squeeze me in for a consultation. Avoid this guy, he should make the list for worst ...attorneys in Palm Beach County, Florida!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Mr. Hurd has been a gem of an attorney in the Palm Beach County area for many, many years. He has a terrific temperment when dealing with difficult situations in litigation matters. His word is his bond and while most attorneys can cite to statutes and rules of procedure, Roger has the experience and wisdom to go along with the "book knowledge"."
