Professional and Very Courteous Attorney and Office Staff

Attorney London was referred to me many years ago by another attorney because of his knowledge and expertise in land trusts and other estate planning protocols. My family and I were very pleased then, and have been extremely satisfied down through the years when consulting Attorney London on other l...egal issues. He has always been courteous and extremely professional in his demeanor and his handling of every situation. Most recently, I went into the attorney's office for what I thought would be a routine notarization of a document. To my great surprise, this was not a simple signature and a stamp. The office staff, specifically, Judy London, assisted me above and beyond expectations. She helped me think through, and really analyze what I was attempting to do. As a result, I realized that I would be making a very serious mistake. Her consultation was invaluable and I truly appreciate the care and concern she expressed during my time there. Once again, Attorney London, is an outstanding lawyer and the team of professionals in his office help to ensure that the environment is warm and friendly and that clients are treated kindly and efficiently.

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 referral!

I was referred to Attorney London by a fellow colleague and decided to make an appointment. My husband had recently passed and I needed to update my estate plan and establish a living trust for my grandkids. Attorney London was extremely knowledgeable, I had lots of questions and called his office fr...equently. He and his staff were kind, sensitive to my requests and always patience with me making sure I understood everything. I am more than pleased with the service and I plan to send some colleagues and family members his way. Thanks again Attorney London!

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.

Living Trust/ Power of Attorney

I met with Attorney London recently to discus a Living Trust, I had the opportunity to see Mr. London in various settings and was able to observe his professionalism as well as his patient and caring personality, so naturally he immediately came to mind when I needed an attorney. Mr. London is very ...knowledgeable, and able to articulate each conversation so you are very clear with the decisions you make. I would retain Mr. London to represent me or a family member because I Trust Him!
