Attorney at Law

Recently, I was in the market for an attorney to draft a will for me. I am an attorney/retired judge myself, but wanted to ensure that the will met the requirements of State Statutes. Because of our substantial financial holdings, Mr. London convinced me that my wife and I needed to set up a trust ...rather than utilize a simple will. He is personable and well-versed in the field of estate planning and his fees are reasonable.

Great Attorney!

Theodore London sat down with me and my family to help us start and move forward on our Probate process. He explained the entire process, listened and answered every question we had, and would restate and clarify what was said. Him and his staff are very professional and have care and compassion for ...our situation.

Professionalism with Integrity

Mr. Theodore London has been my family's attorney for quite some time. I originally learned of him from my parents; he was their legal counsel for many business matters. I also learned of his diverse legal knowledge by listening to him on the Cliff Kelley Show --Thursdays. Currently Atty. London is ...handling my father's estate planning and has simplified all the legal bureaucracy that comes along with property and business ownership. He exudes professionalism with integrity and goes straight to the point to maximize your gains. Atty. London is definitely my attorney of choice!

Mr. & Mrs. Ronald

I have listened on several occasions to Attorney London during his "Legal Line" broadcast on WVON radio; Cliff Kelley Show. I was impressed by his knowledge of the law as it relates to Estate Planning and the many examples that he uses to explain why it is necessary. I was very familiar with the su...bject matter because my wife and I had Living Trust documents drawn up twenty years ago. Realizing that we hadn't amended them in ten years and that situations have changed, somewhat, we needed to have an experienced attorney review our Trust since our Estate Planning attorney had retired. During the initial phone call I was impressed by the business and professionalism of his welcoming staff. Attorney London reviews your situation and asks pertinent questions for clarity. He projects exemplary skills in teaching the law and ensuring that the client understands in entirety his recommended counsel.

Bishop Derrick and Dr. Clara Fitzpatrick, Stone Temple Church

We need to start with all the raving comments we received from the participants in an audience of seniors who were reluctant to hear about estate planning. Everyone in attendance made a point to tell me or call me to tell me how much they learned that they didn't know. They did not think they neede...d anything since they had a will that no one knew where it was! Attorney London was stellar and absolutely knew his "Christian" audience. He was clear, thorough (covered every situation), and willing to answer any question including questions about costs, since we Wakandons place value on this more than we do the outcomes we get therefrom. He agreed to come to speak with us without cost, but we really should have paid him for the reams of information he provided. He was introduced by a satisfied client, whom we invited and who engaged him to handle her mother's affairs. I have also taken another church member to his office. She is so at peace now, you can even see the difference. We would advise, just give him a call to see what you are missing that could cause your family much trouble or put you in charge of your life and make your family's life so much easier.
