Exceptional Estate Plan Lawyer

Attorney Helm's experience in estate planning gave us complete confidence in the preparation of our estate plan. He was accommodating and professional. He answered our questions in lay man's terms. Attorney Helm was highly organized and very respectful of our time. My husband and I would highly recom...mend him to anyone in need of estate planning.

Professional and Efficient

Joseph Helm was great to work with. This was our first experience with estate planning, and he patiently walked us through all of the steps and thoroughly answered any questions we had. The process was thorough yet efficient and we left our signing meeting with a clearly articulated list of to-do's t...o finalize putting the plan into action.

Excellent Experience

Attorney Helm worked with us to develop our estate plan. We had a prior trust but relocated to Wisconsin and needed to make several changes, so we hired him to assist us. He completed the estate plan with our trust and living will sooner than we anticipated. He and his staff were very helpful and K...nowledgeable. His assistant answered all of our questions promptly. I would recommend him to others for estate planning.

Living Trust made easy

Based on personal recommendations and general reputation, we hired Mr. Helm to help us complete estate planning documents including a revocable living trust. Prior experience as a trustee/estate executor made us realize how valuable a living trust can be for anyone who handles your final affairs. Avo...ids all that property going through probate, making assets immediately available for distribution. Joe also made an excellent suggestion about acquiring life insurance to reimburse the estate for any long term care bills paid out of the estate. We will pursue that idea. Mr. Helm is very knowledgeable, and keeps on top of current estate planning practice. Two visits, for the interview and final signing was all that was required, with a bit of interim homework. Could not have been easier. Final work product was exceptional, with a comprehensive binder and further instructions for your trustee/executor. We had the benefit of Hyatt Legal Service employee benefit, which covered almost the entire expense, but any money spent is well worth this peace of mind planning.
