Incredibly knowledgeable

Hello my name is Alma and I am very excited to write this review for the newly re-branded IBIS; the law firm of Rebecca Yingst Price. For many years I procrastinated about updating my estate plan, and this was something I found to be very daunting and stress producing. Rebecca was referred to me b...y a friend and one day i decided to give her office a call to schedule and appointment. Immediately, upon placing the call i found her staff to be extremely thoughtful and sensitive to my estate planning goals. After our initial consultation and some subsequent homework assignments I found Rebecca to be extremely prepared for our first official meeting. Rebecca explained to me what I should expect to occur moving forward, and did not hesitate to offer her professional opinion where she felt necessary. Rebecca was able to bring important matters to my attention i never thought to ask, which I found to be extremely valuable. Her number one goal was to to create an estate plan that was in the best interest for me and my family. My final estate planning documents were presented to me in a beautiful easy to read format, which explained every aspect of the estate plan, along with thorough instructions on how to navigate on your own moving forward. Lastly, but most important I have been assured that Rebecca (IBIS) and her staff are just a phone call away which has been already proven. I HIGHLY recommend Rebecca for estate planning needs.

Client

I retained Ms. Price to prepare a full set of estate planning documents, including trust, will and powers of attorney. She was understanding about the time-sensitivity of my situation and more than accommodated all of my needs. She was forward-thinking, in that her planning considers possible outco...mes I myself could not have imagined. The documents were well-executed in a timely manner. Ms. Price is a highly skilled, experienced and senior member of the bar. She and all of her employees conduct themselves with the utmost professionalism, respect and kindness. I strongly recommend Rebecca Yingst Prince for her estate planning services.

Rebecca (Becky) Price review of Adoption and Will

I originally hired Rebecca (Becky) Price to provide legal guidance and leadership with the adoption of my stepdaughter in March of 2020. I was hoping to complete the process by the end of the year, even with a newly discovered pandemic spreading across the country. Becky was very flexible with meet...ings, provided expert guidance, and most importantly is an excellent communicator (with great patience). I am a very driven, goals-oriented customer, and Becky (and her staff) kept up with every one of my requests, questions, and anxieties. The bottom line is this..........Becky was an excellent executioner of my plan to adopt my daughter and she completed the process for us 4 months earlier than we expected. I have also utilized Becky's expertise to create and register wills for my wife and I, as well as the appropriate trusts for our daughter. I would be remise if I did not mention that the support team that works with Becky was incredibly responsive to my questions, requested expectations, and "due dates". My wife and I feel so fortunate to have picked Becky out of the stack of researched lawyers when we needed legal services. Hopefully, this review will assist others in picking the correct lawyer for their legal needs.

Excellet in comunication

I will be working with Rebecca in the near future. She made me feel so at ease. And her advise as to how I should proceed was very sound. I got very lucky the day I click on her name when there were so many to choose from I am blessed.

Above and Beyond!

Rebecca Price was hired by myself and sister to help us with receiving benefits from an estate of a deceased cousin. Rebecca went above and beyond her job by giving us an explanation of every possible scenario that could arise. She gave us her honest opinion on the situation and allowed us time to mu...ll over all options. On top of that my sister and I live in Pennsylvania so we were not familiar with Ohio in any way. When it came time to make a visit to Ohio she did not hesitate to give us recommendations of things to visit in the area! She made a difficult and complicated situation 100 times easier! I cannot thank her enough for not only her professionalism but her kindness!
