Great work at reasonable price

Great service at an affordable price. We had our trust, wills and other documents prepared by Dana Laganella at Affordable Attorneys 12 years ago and have updated them without any hiccups. We verbalize the required changes and they update "draft" documents that we review. If needed, they update th...e files again so that the final documents are as we requested them and legally correct. They are very well regarded in the legal community as well.

Do you need a very good estate planning attorney?

We needed to update our wills, Trust and related documents but kept putting it off, wondering who we should use. Dana Gerling came highly recommended by many neighbors in our new housing development in Lakewood Ranch so we decided to meet with her. I am a retired partner in a CPA firm so I have deal...t closely with this area of legal expertise throughout my career. Dana is exceptional at providing these legal services and making sure that the clients understand what is being done and what they need to follow through with. I highly recommend Dana to anyone needing this service.

Best estate attorney

I’m a widow and moved to Florida about 3 years ago and so glad I found Dana to help me with my Eatate will. She’s very knowledgeable, friendly, patient and very reasonable with the fee. Now I’m so relieved that everything is organized for my estate. I strongly recommend her if ever needs to sort out... your Eatate will.

Great experience. Made it so easy for us.

Well worth our time. Dana Gerling took the time to explain every aspect of the Trust and wills. She and her staff were so professional and never once made us feel that our que. were not important to them. They keep us informed along the way and every meeting was met on a timely bases. We want to tha...nk her and the staff for guiding us through this to us difficult process.

Great focused and pragmatic advice/services

Dana and her team were great at getting us through our estate planning in an efficient way, and ensuring we understood any decisions we made (family trust, wills, DPOA and healthcare surrogate) Wholeheartedly recommend her!
