The Great Hope
If you’re looking for an attorney who has empathy, will give you the facts regarding your case, who can lead you in the right direction or give you a referral, you’ve come to the right place! Victoria is an absolute angel & I truly adore her! I would recommend her to anyone & I’ve had family members who already reached out to her previously. My case in particular was regarding an estate\ will. Victoria helped me a lot. I was going through it emotionally & her genuine spirit guided me along the way. I thanked her for being so patient. I had a family member pass in 2020 during the pandemic & everything was delayed! I’m just now getting paperwork from the state in 2023. It’s been a long road & Victoria has been there every step of the way assisting me. I will always go to her. I’ve have covid twice & been laid off during this whole ordeal. And Victoria has always been understanding & caring. I couldn’t ask for a better attorney. Victoria is thorough, organized & concise. Overall Victoria gets the job done. Look no further! Victoria helped me save money from creditors & believes in being cost efficient.

Thank you Victoria
thank you for helping me with a very difficult process concerning my mothers estate. My first "rodeo" in this kind of legal matter. You helped me feel more comfortable about all of the details of estate and probate essentials starting with our initial consultation and continuing through the final probate process. I feel comfort in the closing of my mother's estate and, again, thank you for your knowledge, professionalism, and humanity in helping out a "dumb as a bag of rocks" guy. I am delighted and comforted that you have agreed to assist with my own will/estate plans. marty lynn

Realtor
Five years ago I referred a close friend with a very delicate, tragic legal situation to Victoria Sloan. I was so impressed with her professionalism, grace, thoroughness, compassion, and Integrity in working with my friend. Since that referral I have worked with her with several clients who all sing her praises. She is a solid, caring, successful attorney.

Outstanding estate planning expertise
Often when working with an expert on complex topics like legal matters, your confidence and comfort come from that expert articulating detail in a way that even a high schooler can understand. Victoria is a master of her craft but and does an amazing job of making the complex simple. She sets you at ease by boiling down the details and focusing on the items that truly matter, taking the time to address questions thoughtfully while offering best practices based on your unique situation. We had to stop and start the process and at no point did we feel like she was getting impatient or trying to push us to finalize our end of the prep work needed to complete our estate plan, yet when we were ready, she responded immediately. We'd recommend Victoria and her team to anyone who needs help creating the best estate plan for their family whether simple or complex.

Honest, Direct, Compassionate, Efficient, Professiona
On July 29, 2021, I contacted Ms. Sloan for a phone consultation. She explained why, for my situation, what I wanted to do would not be a good use of my time and money. She suggested a more direct and appropriate approach which just so happens to require zero cost. In my opinion, the person(s) at the firm who hired her are to be commended. Lawyers often get a bad rap, but Ms. Sloan does not fit the negative stereotype. I would not hesitate to retain her services.

A Caring Attorney
I was drawn to Victoria Sloan because of all the positive reviews on her. My husband passed away. She handled his account/estate without a beneficiary which went to probate. Victoria was sooo good in taking care of everything. She is an excellent attorney and a good person with a personality plus.

Wonderful to Work With
When I first realized that I needed an attorney I felt scared and intimidated. I didn't know where to start. However, when I called Victoria she was so kind and helpful and all of my fears melted away. She answered my many questions with kindness and understanding! I highly recommend her.

Highly Recommend!
I assumed Power of Attorney for my Aunt this past Spring. It can be an overwhelming role, but attempting to navigate this responsibility during a global pandemic and from another country when borders are closed and travel is restricted adds many other layers of complication. I retained Victoria Sloan's services early on and continue to be very glad that I decided to do so. Her knowledge, guidance and assistance have been invaluable in expediting my many duties and responsibilities and have helped to minimize what would otherwise have been a very stressful obligation. I highly recommend Victoria Sloan as an attorney.

Rock Star!
I hired Victoria to assist me in a challenging trust situation. Her knowledge and expertise were beyond extensive. She was compassionate, listened, used her knowledge as well as life experience to make decisions that were best served in my situation. Victoria will be my recommendation for anyone who needs a probate, estate or family law attorney. If you are deciding between other attorneys, look no further.

My sister and I wish we could have given her 10 stars!
Victoria helped my sister and me with our parents trust. They left their home to the two of us and my sister wanted to buy my portion. What we found to be so helpful, is that Victoria did not talk down to us and we probably asked a million questions. She was patient, thorough and considerate about our time & finances. We had interviewed 2 or 3 other lawyers in the past and had headaches when we left their offices so we neglected this issue for many years. Just dreading it. Anyone who is nervous about lawyers should go see Victoria. She gives lawyers a good name.

Victoria is compassionate, knowledgeable, and diligent
When my mother died almost 1000 miles away from us without a will, we had no idea what to do or what was required of us. Victoria took the time to explain the process to me and held my hand the entire way. Victoria was kind and extremely considerate. She did her job extremely well, but was always looking out for me and how best to make my retainer work for me. I will forever be grateful to Victoria for making this terrible, heart wrenching process bearable.
