Estate Planning 70%

My law practice is dedicated to client education and legal life self defense. We all have a legal life that if ignored, will negatively impact us resulting in unexpected expense and avoidable stress. We help clients gain a peace of mind through education and preparation. We concentrate on helping families and especially families with special needs dependents. Conventional estate planning is no longer viable, we all need a legal life plan.

Find a different attorney

David Brunell was hired to oversee and execute a will and estate of a passed family member. It is over a year since the passing and we still do not have proper documentation or accounting or several other things we should have at this point. Do to David's lack of communication we were forced to hire ...another attorney just to follow up with this attorney. Very unresponsive and takes forever to follow up with anything. Constant excuse after excuse why things are not done in the time frame they were supposed to be. Very unprofessional and very inefficient.

Best attorney ever

Dave is one of the most caring men I have ever met. He took care of our estate promptly. He was patient and very sympathetic during a difficult time. I don't know what we would have done without him.

The most unprofessional experience I've ever had in my life

If I could give this firm particularly this attorney zero Stars I would. The communication is zero, does not return emails or phone calls . On the initial call he was very arrogant telling us how much he cost per hour and not to take up too much of his time . If you are working on an estate for you...r family I would suggest looking somewhere else. During difficult times this is the last thing that anyone should have to deal with. After not seeing any documentation that we should have received and still have not received for over 6 months, we were told to have our attorney send him a letter which is exactly the route I am already going. I just figured, like a decent human being I would give him the benefit of the doubt. Again if you want to avoid the hassle of dealing with something like this I would choose a different attorney.
