Review of Ron Walters, attorney

I recently had my Will completed by Ron Walters of Willwright Estate Planning. I found Ron to be professional & knowledgeable & was so impressed that he also was willing to give me advice & help me resolve another legal issue that arose right after my will was complete. He has streamlined his process... to minimize how much he bills his clients & provides a choice of several locations to meet with him which is convenient. Ron is easy to communicate with, takes extra care to ensure that you understand the process, & is ethical. His focus is to provide quality service at an affordable price. I would recommend him to a friend.

Will prep

Ron was very professional, yet personable, and explained all documents to my satisfaction. He also offered guidance as to alternate documents that could be used. I would recommend Ron to assist in your estate planning.

Easy and Smooth Process

Ron was very helpful with any questions we had. Even upfront questions we had before we started the process. He was very timely with responses and completing our Will and Heath Care directive. He also worked with our schedules well.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
