Excellent for estate planning
When my mother needed a will and a living trust, I took her to see Mr. Borkowski. He treated her respectfully and answered all questions. He did the worked skillfully and timely. When she passed away, everything went smoothly and easily. I highly recommend Mr. Borkowski.
