The Right Choice for Comprehensive Estate Planning
Cristy did not hesitate to get involved in handling my father's estate during a very emotional time for my family. She needed to familiarize herself with a great deal of complicated information very quickly and did so. She was very thorough and clear in her questions and requests for additional information . She has been extremely patient with my mother and myself in her explanation of legal terms and proceedings knowing this is an unfamiliar area for us. She gave us a very educational overview of estate planning and is working with my mom to get all her financial affairs in order now so she can rest easy knowing Cristy's got her covered. Cristy is very professional but is also very empathetic and compassionate; a perfect combination when dealing with such an emotionally charged subject matter.
