Kept it simple

Ms Schuler Todd made my husband and I feel comfortable while dealing with the serious matter of drawing up a will and trust. She answered our questions thoroughly and patiently. Communication via emails with her and her paralegal, Sara was an effective way to also get the work done. I would recomm...end her.

Thanks so much for your help!!

I was referred to Sumner by a co-worker who also used Hyatt Legal services thru our employer. Having no previous experience with lawyers and wills - I was very pleased with my experience with Ms. Todd. She took time to explain everything that their practice provided and answered all my questions. She... was very helpful and offered multiple solutions for my own personal situations. I was also very pleased with how quickly we were able to get everything handled. Thanks again Meghan!

Great to work with

My husband and I needed to do our will/trust and wanted a reputable law firm to help us with the task. We made an appointment and Meghan was our lawyer. She was so very thorough when she explained the documents and what steps we had to take to complete the process. This was a two step process, so w...hen we met up with Meghan again to finalize everything she again went through all of the documents to make sure that we fully understood what was in our binder. She truly was a pleasure to work with, and it is clear that she knows her business well.

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.
