Posted by Shirley | July 26, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

They are all expensive ...

But If he doesn't charge for calls and email, he'd be out money because people will just keep asking and asking .... - having said that, Ben is my estate lawyer. I'm careful about my calls and he charged what he said. I've used him twice and the 2nd time, he gave me an even better price. I'm send...ing my daughter to him in a month and I'll update later. He is very knowledgeable and talked me out of a bad decision. Oh, and I had replaced him with one from chesterton who talked down to me and two points were hurting my heirs. Don't need that. And he wasn't any cheaper.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
