We Highly Recommend Erin Adams Armstrong for your Legal Work

We initially called three lawyers to form a basis of whom to select to update and prepare our family legal documents. Erin was the only lawyer who took the time to talk with us up front about how she could help us fulfill our needs and invited us to meet with her for a consultation. My wife and I fo...rmed an immediate bond as we learned of her qualifications and skills and more importantly of her family, religious and ethical values. During the face to face meetings, Erin used a structured but non-formal and friendly approach in determining our choices and recording that information for her later drafting our new Wills, Durable Power of Attorney, Health Care Power of Attorney, etc. In addition, she was very helpful and recommended new legal documents that have recently emerged to fortify other documents -- these included the "Designation of Personal Representative" for HIPPA requirements; the "Appointment of Representative for Disposition of Bodily Remains" which is a new document authorized by the Ohio House in 2006 to enhance and legally record specific and concise final wishes to assist family members expediciously during a difficult time. Erin also made a useful recommendation to deposit our wills and file them in the Probate Court so that an official copy would be available in an off-site location. She also took care of the filing details for us. Overall, we were very pleased with Erin's legal knowledge and her ability to explain to us in easily understandable language, the details of some complex terms and concepts that are often taken for granted and not questioned because people may feel that it is common knowledge and don't want to be embarrassed. Erin made us feel at ease to ask any questions and took the time to explain them to us so that we really understood what is now in our legal documents. We would recommend Erin to anyone who needs legal work performed and strongly endorse her working approach with clients as knowledgeable, courteous and easy to understand and work with. She kept us informed on her progress and completed all our requests in a timely manner.
