Estate Planning

I had an initial meeting with Atty Ringe. She then forwarded me the paperwork to review. After reviewing it, I made an appointment to sign the documents. Atty Ringe was very thorough, very pleasant to deal with, and extremely helpful. She handled all of my questions and gave me complete answers f...or all.

Excellent help with Elder Law and Trusts

I have worked with Chantelle on a number of projects. She is very knowledgeable and helped simplify and streamline complex financial matters and worked well with multiple generations. She has helped set up Living Trusts for me. She is very competent, efficient and a great pleasure to work with. I... recommend her highly.

Evaluation of services provided by Chantelle M. Ringe

We worked with Ms. Ringe on issues related to a parent's trust that involved real estate and other assets. It was a bit of a mess. Ms. Ringe sorted it out, and we feel that we received excellent advice from her. She was highly professional and clearly competent in her field. She was easy to reach an...d prompt to respond to questions; her responses were thorough. She anticipated possible problems instead of waiting for them to happen. She promptly delivered copies of necessary documents in the format we wished to receive them (in our case, electronic copies). She was polite and patient. She had my trust throughout the process and she has earned my highest recommendation.

Land Contract Work

Chantelle is my go to Attorney of choice. She has drafted Land Contracts for me as well as reviewed various Real Estate related agreements (joint driveway, shared property, etc). I have referred her to numerous clients and friends who are in need of an attorney for estate planning as well. Chantel...le listens to your goals and needs and makes sure everything is addressed approriately. I always felt like she was looking out for our best interests and always explained the why. We have used her numerous times and will continue to use her ourselves as well as refer her any chance we can.

Elder Law

I consulted with Atty Ringe regarding the care my mother-in-law' was receiving from a care giving agency which we felt was taking advantage of her. Atty Ringe was very knowledgeable and gave us some great options to consider. I was very pleased with the way Atty Ringe handled our concerns and quest...ions.
