Great with Estate Planning

Explained everything clearly with my 86 year mother. Loved the time and patients he had during our experience.

Very Patient & Thorough

Scott took his time to explain everything to my 86-year mother during her estate planning. He took his time to cover every detail to make it easier on the family. Excellent experience.

Living Trust

Scott was a great deal of help in helping us make the proper decisions regarding our estate plan. We originally thought we would be getting a trust done and he enlightened us on all of the other things that were needed to properly make good decisions on how to plan for the unfortunate things that co...uld happen. We are very pleased with our decision to hire Scott to help us.

Outstanding Experience with Scott Rogers

Our attorney had retired and we were looking for an attorney to review our estate and plan for the future. We attended a seminar where Scott Rogers was one of the presentors. We liked what we heard and saw, and visited with him afterward. We then talked with other people in the community and also ...with our banker until we found people that he had done work for. In each instance we were given an outstanding recommendations. We set an appointment and met with him in his office. He gathered the facts about our situation first, and then made recommendations that would be applicable to our situation. We visited with our banker and financial advisor. Everything meshed and we went forward and had the estate planning completed. Our next meeting was in his office again where the documents were presented. Again everything was done in a very professional manner and all preparations were complete. We are very satisfied with the work done for us by Scott Rogers and look forward to working with his office in the future. We would highly recommend Scott Rogers for legal work.

Professional Estate Planning

My Family and I had a consultation with Scott Rogers regarding my brothers estate. He has the ability to explain things in a manner that make it easy for the client to understand. He handled the estate in such a professional manner. He is very knowledgeable of estates and the Iowa law. My family an...d I were all so please with the timely manner in which the estate was closed. My husband and I have recently returned to Scott Rogers for our Estate Planning. He is so personable, Trustworthy, and detailed in everything he has done for us. If you are needing help with estates, Estate Planning, legal question big or small, simple or complex I would highly recommend Scott Rogers.
