Trust Administration
Justin represents me on several trust administrations. I find him conscientious, detailed, and excellent in his follow-through. He is considerate and tactful but will be forthright and persistent when I need him to represent me in tough circumstances.

So professional and so easy to talk to
Justin helped me get my father's trust and will change when we arrived back to Tennessee. Along with mine. He was so polite, patient, and he had so much good advice to help us transition our trusts from California law to Tennessee law. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
