Review for excellent trust and estate planning work

Wow. Awesome. Caring. Compassionate. Responsive. Innovative. Proactive. Involved. These are words that do not begin to describe my experience with the organization and with all I have interacted. Upon the recommendation of trusted financial and legal professionals, my wife embarked on the journey to... create a trust encompassing complicated personal and business components, which has turned out to be one of her best moves. Faced with a multitude of complexities, the firm has been able to put my daughter, our business interests, and myself in a comfortable, protected, and secure position upon her passing. Thanks to their efforts, we are all able to proceed and enjoy the fruits of my wife’s innovative and creative spirit.

Peace of Mind

We conferred with Jen about drawing up our wills. We had definite ideas about how we wanted our affairs handled, but we didn't think we needed a Trust. Just a simple will. Jen was very patient and explained that what we wanted to do was exactly what a Trust was designed to do. Still, we just want...ed a simple will. Jen did not press us and continued to try and make our wishes work with just a simple will. As we worked together, we began to see that she was right and eventually established a Living Trust. We have so much peace of mind now knowing that when the time comes, our affairs will be handled according to our wishes. I really appreciate Jen's patience and ability to explain things.

Lucky to have had Jen's Kindness & Expertise

Jen consulted with me concerning two matters related to dealing with the estates of my mother and my stepmother. Her guidance and direction were invaluable. In each situation, it turned out that I needed an out of state attorney to resolve the issues. Jen helped with that process. I then hired J...en and her amazingly knowledgeable colleague Scott William's to create Trusts for my husband and I because it was clear that they were far more knowledgeable and compassionate than any one else we had considered.

Great lawyer
