Outstanding

Skip did an excellent job getting my estate plans in order. We met, he put everything together, and then we met again to sign. Helped me understand the advantage of a trust. Was clear and precise in his communications. I'm a lot more comfortable about my future now, and for what I leave my executors ...to deal with. All at a reasonable price.

George and Jen Estate and Will Planning

Frank was very understanding of the Estate and will planning laws. Both my wife and I were very new to this area and were not very well informed prior to our engagements with Frank. Frank was good at explaning line by line the rules, laws and what-ifs around our will. I would recommend Frank for his ...services to anyone.

Posted by Jennifer | March 26, 2013 | Wills & Living Wills

Frank was wonderful to work with! Very professional and was able to answer all our questions. Highly recommend!

Frank was very helpful. He came completely prepared to our meeting and explained all the aspects of our living will thoroughly. This was the first time my husband and I have ever done a living will or power of attorney, so we had a lot of questions. He was very clear when he was going through the ...documents and we felt very comfortable with him. I would recommend him for any service to my friends and family.

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.
