Trust Experience
I felt very comfortable at our meetings. All questions were answered. I appreciate being able to ask questions and receive answers after the trust documents were completed.
"Bob Ross is a consummate estate planning attorney. Not only that, he is a great and generous person. I highly recommend him to any person looking for a knowledgeable, well-spoken, friendly and down-to-earth estate planning attorney."
"My relationship with Bob Ross has unjustly enriched me in ways too many to set out here. Suffice it to say that there are too few lawyers in practice that warrant the high marks for practice excellence that Bob does. Bob's personal warmth and good humor accentuate his rare gift for counseling clients through some of the most difficult planning decisions they will ever make while offering the most creative of solutions, and he does it with an outward enthusiasm that is tempered with undeniable intelligence, wisdom, and integrity. I unreservedly endorse Bob and would highly recommend him to any of my clients or contacts."
"I have known Bob professionally for a number of years through a national study group of estate planning lawyers. Bob is a man of high integrity that puts other people first. He is knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate about serving the interest of his clients. I wholeheartedly endorse Bob Ross as an estate planning lawyer."
"Bob Ross is an excellent trust and estates attorney whom I have worked with and known for many years. He is an out of the box thinker, great with clients, extremely smart, and gets the job done. Larry is also responsive and easy to work with."
"Ross Estate Planning has helped my estate planning clients with transfers into trust for Wisconsin property. His office has always been prompt, attentive and professional. I endorse this lawyer."
"I have known Bob for over ten years as a founding member of EPICOR and have come to admire his legal skills and practicality in solving problems."
"I have been in the business of estate planning and tax planning for well over 45 years. Here is the attorney who I would want to represent me and members of my family. Bob cares about people and cares about quality. Trust him with any matter, no matter how complex."
"i have known Bob Ross for many years and I endorse him wholeheartedly. Not only is he a very caring, open, honest, approachable person, he is an outstanding attorney. He approaches his work with his clients by listening to their concerns and then carefully hand crafting a state of the art plan that specifically meets their needs. He is a gem who is nationally recognized as a superb estate planning attorney."
"Bob brings an amazing amount of professional knowledge to the table as well as an advocacy for his clients that is truly outstanding. If I needed legal counsel for my clients in his area, he would be the "go to" person that I would endorse."
"I endorse this lawyer. Bob is one of hte most knowledgeable, gracious, and understanding lawyers you will ever encounter. His entire practice has been designed to make the client feel comfortable while being the center of focus for the entire firm. If you have an estate planning issue, you can be assured Bob will find the solution for you. I have known Bob for the past 15 years through both state and national organizations, and I have personally seen and worked with his office and staff."
"I have known Bob for many years. He is one of the best estate planning lawyers in the state, and country. In addition, he is very thoughtful and caring. I have worked with him on cases, and recommended several people to him because I know he will do the best possible job."
"During the past 10 years, Bob and I have collaborated on several estate planning, and post-death administrative matters. My clients and I have found Bob to be extremely well qualified in all estate planning and administrative matters, and very easy to work with."
"I endorse Bob's experience and dedication. Bob and I have worked together for years in national organizations including the Sunbridge Fellowship of Masters and the National Network of Estate Planning Attorneys. Bob is knowledgeable and caring, while very generous with his time in helping others."
