estate planning and trust

Meghan was very thorough and took time to explain things in non-legal jargon that made it very easy to understand how and what was being done and walked us through our next steps in setting up our trust

Legal jargon can often times be difficult to read and understand so we have created a process to explain things in a simple and concise manner. We want all of our clients to be able to understand their documents.

Trust & Will documents

Meghan did a great job in preparation of our Trust and Will documents. Her process was very well planned and the meetings were always very productive. She provided very clear advice on critical elements that needed specific attention.

living trust

I used Meghan to update my living trust and also to add my daughter's name to a timeshare deed. She recognizes when she has to explain things more fully. She is helpful, knowledgeable, and uses her time wisely to accomplish goals.

Trust/Will

Meghan set up a Trust and Will for my wife and I, we were very pleased with her thoroughness and professionalism. She took all the time needed to explain things and to answer any questions. We are very comfortable with her and would highly recommend her to others.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
