Expert Probate and Estate Plan Service

Having worked with five attorneys over the years regarding probate and estate planning, I found Andrew is the most knowledgeable and offered the clearest, most actionable advice for my legal questions. He effectively assisted me in wrapping up a probate case in an adjacent county. He guided me throug...h revisions to my estate plan and ensured it was updated to address changes and deficiencies, protecting my assets from probate. I expect to work with Andrew again in the future.

Hiring him was a huge mistake. Do not waste your time and money like I did!

I hired Andrew to handle what should have been a straightforward post-divorce matter involving unpaid child support. While things began smoothly, the situation quickly deteriorated. Over nearly two years, I spent thousands of dollars and received no results—only poor legal advice that left me in a wo...rse position than when I started. Andrew advised me to accept a drastic reduction in child support, assuring me it was temporary. It wasn’t. After consulting five other attorneys while seeking to replace him, I learned that his guidance was seriously flawed—none could believe an attorney would recommend such terms. In court (after months of waiting for a court date), the judge in a span of 15 seconds referred the case without even hearing it. Andrew failed to object—an action that could have kept the case in front of the judge and likely led to a favorable outcome. Again, other attorneys confirmed this was a major error on his part. Communication also became a major issue. At a critical point in my case, Andrew became unreachable for weeks—ignoring calls, emails, and messages. The only time he was consistently responsive was when sending invoices and collecting payments. Two years later, I’ve received nothing from my ex, paid Andrew thousands, and now must hire another attorney to clean up the mess he has made and start over. Hiring him was a huge mistake. Do not waste your time and money like I did!

Andrew was very knowledgeable, efficient and prompt. I have used him for a contract review and a Trust. I would recommend him to anyone and in fact I already have.

Highly Skilled and Efficient Lawyer

I had a fantastic experience working with Andrew on my prenuptial agreement. He was incredibly knowledgeable and guided me through the entire process with clarity and confidence. What stood out the most was his attention to detail—nothing was overlooked, and I always felt like I was in very capable h...ands. He also worked quickly and efficiently, which made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. I’m so grateful for his expertise and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy Lawyer.
