Posted by Jen | December 09, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Made a thing I was dreading not so bad

I had been putting off writing a will and naming guardians for my children. I knew it was something I needed to take care of but every time I thought about it I just got freaked out and told myself "another day". I'm not getting any younger and I knew the time had come when I needed to deal with this... issue. Barry came to my office and walked me through all of the areas to be addressed. He asked simple questions and after he determined what my specific needs were. He explained the entire process as we talked and he even made it a tiny bit fun when I told him the details and plans I want for my funeral. Barry made a difficult thing to think about and discuss not so terrible and when the meeting was over, I actually felt a sense of relief knowing I was doing what I needed to do to ensure my daughters will be protected if something happens to me. He could not have been nicer and he spent a lot of time with me. I never felt rushed or like he just wanted to move things along so he could get to the next appointment. I recommend him for anyone who needs to do estate planning, wills and POAs.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse Barry Siegel for estate planning. I appreciate his methodical thought process in designing estate plans for his clients, including considering invoking laws of other states to achieve asset protection for a business. He and I worked on a matter where his clients in Florida wanted to incorporate protections of Nevada law in to their business structure. His understanding of his clients needs helped me design a business entity to work with their estate plan."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Being an attorney and knowing a large number of attorneys personally, I do not make any hiring decisions lightly when I need an attorney to take care of my own personal legal needs. When it came time to have a Living Trust created for myself, I did not think twice about hiring Mr. Barry Siegel. He did an excellent job for me and I could not be happier with his services. I know Mr. Siegel now for 2.5 years and I also know of many other people who have had great experiences in hiring his services to take care of themselves and their families. He is an excellent attorney with over 20 years of experience. He not only handles Wills & Trusts but also handles Elder Law, Estate Planning and Probate as well. I wholeheartedly and confidently endorse Barry Siegel as an attorney."
