Review for Amanda Rae Hespen

I needed some advice on estate planning. Amanda knew her stuff and is very smart. She really helped me in a crisis. Her work is stellar. She couldn’t have been more helpful. I don’t know what I would have done without her. If I had a question, she had an answer. She knew exactly what to do and everyt...hing was done in a timely manner. I have nothing but good things to say.

The process flowed very smoothly

It was always pleasant. We described our situation and Amanda identified several points we needed to consider. She was assisting us with several estate planning documents. She asked the right questions to determine what we really needed. She identified all the pieces we needed to put in place and co...nsider for our second meeting during our first meeting. The process flowed very smoothly. The best thing was the sense that attention was being paid to what we actually needed in the process. I needed some form of vetting of the firm. The fact that Amanda was giving a course at the local level on estate planning under the auspices of the school district helped. I had to choose between three or four firms and went with this one.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
