Knowledgeable - Responsive - Personable - Compassionate

We used David's expertise on 3 separate legal matters and he excelled at each one. He is very knowledgeable and listened to our needs. He is extremely good at getting back to us and answering our questions. I would highly recommend David Van Straten.

Elder Care POA/Executor

David is very knowledgeable in estate and probate issues. He conducted a comprehensive review of my legal documents and offered insightful suggestions to complete my executor duties.

Excellent customer service

Our family hired David to assist with Medicaid issues when my Grandparents fell ill and we learned they had cash values on their life insurance policies. He was very knowledgeable on the subject and never left questions go unanswered. His response time was remarkable on both questions and paperwork.... His assistant was also very friendly and helpful. It was a tough time for our family but thanks to David he took a huge burden off of us by handling this piece of the puzzle.

Estate Planning Documents Including a Living Trust

Estate planning documents were very comprehensive, including good written instructions for transferring assets. David was very patient in explaining items that I had questions on, and I had quite a few, and also with the time it took me to make some decisions and get alternate representatives, etc. ...There were a few errors in the first draft of the documents but the second draft was all good.

Great Service

David was great to work with. He asked all the right questions and gave us thorough explanations to our questions. He was timely with all paperwork. We would highly recommend his services.
