I am so happy, I found Jennifer Tomac Law Firm

After the death of my beloved husband in 2018, I was extremely fortunate to find the services of Jennifer and Jerad Tomac with “Tomac & Tomac, PLLC” in Rapid City, South Dakota. They were instrumental in helping me through the most difficult time in my life. Jennifer made the whole process... easy with a very creative approach regarding the estate and trust, while I was dealing with so many issues. Now, thanks to Jennifer and Jerad Tomac, these very professional and timely attorneys, I am all set with my estate planning. Jennifer is very compassionate while exceptionally intelligent in many areas of the law. I became very ill, and she even came to the hospital (which was an hours drive from her office), in order for me to sign some important documents. She also has the gift of explaining complicated legal matters in a language that is completely understandable by anyone, and is the most caring attorney I have ever met. She truly was a blessing to me, and I highly recommend her without reservation. She will fight for you, be attentive to you, and she will give you the wonderful feeling that “everything will be fine”. I am so grateful, thank you Jennifer,

Thankful for Jenny

Jenny was extremely helpful and professional as we worked through developing my will and trust after my first child was born a few years ago. I knew I needed to get my “end of life” documents prepared but didn’t really know where to start, and Jenny made it easy. Thankful to have this foundation laid... in the event something terrible happens; I’ll know at least it won’t be a messy situation for my children.

Excellent estate legal guidance

Ms. Tomac is an excellent attorney in the legal areas related to estates and trusts. She is very knowledgeable and provides no nonsense guidance and explanations. Ms. Tomac has guided me through the executorship of my mom's estate, a very difficult position emotionally. Her knowledge of the court sys...tem, of the administrative process that needed to happen when and where, and what to expect at each phase has been invaluable. She helped me to understand my mom's will and codicils as they were written, and helped me finalize her estate in accordance with my mom's wishes. We recommend her highly to anyone needing these type of services.

Wills and Trusts

My husband and I needed to have or wills made and chose Jennifer Tomac based on several recommendations. We were not disappointed! She did a great job explaining the VA laws in terms we could understand. She completed the process in a timely manner and her rates were very affordable. I highly reco...mmend Jennifer if you are looking to have your wills done.

Guardianship / Conservatorship / Wills

We used Jennifer Tomac for our Wills/Medical Directives/POA, but also for a Guardianship and Conservatorship filing. In both cases we found her to be knowledgeable and responsive - we always felt like we had a 'partner' in the process. She kept us informed, told us what to expect, and was honest ab...out possible outcomes. She advocates for her clients and was always professional.

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.
