Professional and Very Helpful

I was recommended to Tracy by one of the best lawyers in Fort Wayne and I was glad he did. Tracy and the staff did an excellent job. I had limited knowledge of the trust process and they walked me through it very patiently. They were very responsive to my questions and made the experience pleasant. The price was a great value. Thank you, Tracy.

Thank you for taking the time to share your comments, Jeff. We believe it is best to review your estate plan every three to five years because situations change and laws update. I am glad you took the time to review your estate plan with us so that your documents can reflect your current situation and what you want to accomplish. I look forward to reviewing your estate plan again!
