Growing up, I always knew that I wanted to be a lawyer but it wasn't until my second year of law school that I knew which area I wanted to specialize in. I enrolled in an estate planning and elder law course and knew that this was my calling. I have spent years practicing and attending continuing education seminars to gain as much expertise as possible, and I would love to put that expertise to work for you!

Excellent Service

This is the second time working with Rebecca. Her expertise and advise has been a great help along with her timely response and completeness of estate documents that are now in place. Highly recommend!

Excellent lawyer

Rebecca listens to our needs very carefully, takes time to review our legal documents, and thoroughly explains what all these documents mean to us. In the past, other lawyers we hired never explained all these details. She is very professional, friendly and accessible. She came to our house with a notary public, so we didn't have to drive anyplace to get everything done. We highly recommend Rebecca.

Outstanding Service

Rebecca Braun has been great to work with. I first met her when she drafted Durable Power of Attorney paperwork for my elderly parents. She came right to their house! Rebecca was compassionate and kind. She was very patient with them. She listened to all their concerns and was able to answer their questions thoroughly. I recently arranged a zoom meeting with her. Again Rebecca was patient, informative and knowledgeable. Her counsel was individualized to our parents' needs. We had a very good understanding of our options by the end of the meeting. We will definitely reach out to her in the future.

Becky has helped me out on multiple occasions with legal advice. Only lawyer I know that will give me a straight answer and not legal mumbo jumbo. Honesty and integrity are the only words I can use to describe her. Saved me time, money, and energy. I recommend her to everyone.

Highest recommendation

Rebecca Braun has provided legal services for my husband, myself and my parents (trusts, powers of attorney, wills, etc.). Her professionalism is unparalleled and I continue to recommend her services to my family and friends.

Posted by Cindy | October 3, 2020

Beyond Amazing!

When my father suffered a stroke, I found myself in need of a lawyer who was an expert in estate planning and elderly law. I was referred to Rebecca Braun. I was AMAZED at the level of expertise and knowledge this woman possesses. There is not a question I have asked her that she had not known the answer to. Not only does she travel to your home to meet with you, she is always timely in her response to your questions and in getting paperwork done. What started out as one meeting with an attorney has blossomed into a wonderful relationship with our family. Rebecca is kind, caring, and empathetic. She truly cares about her clients. She has helped us with multiple family estate plans since that first day we met. It is comforting to know that she is in our corner and just a phone call away if we need her. If you are looking for a "geniune" lawyer, look no further than Rebecca Braun!
