Consultation

I contacted Josh Tucker regarding a family issue concerning guardianship - wills - fiduciary responsibilities etc. Extremely helpful - solid knowledge of law. Took the time to address my concerns and got the answers I needed. Would definitely recommend.

Exactly what we needed!

We were looking for someone who could walk us through creating our wills, power of attorney and final health care plans. No one wants to sit down and plan out what happens when we die but it is necessary. Josh made it easy to understand what was needed to fulfill our wishes. He gave us insight as to ...what to plan for at different stages of life/death and he handled the hard work for us. Very pleased with this experience and we will keep him for future needs.
