Expert Guidance for Wills and Trusts

Michael Weeks helped us create multiple complicated trusts. He was very thorough in his explanations and possible scenarios that we would not have thought about. We felt very confident in his expertise.

Highly Recommend

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Weeks recently when my husband and I set up our wills, power of attorneys and health care directives. We had a lot of questions as we were very unfamiliar with the process. Mr. Weeks did an awesome job of answering all of those questions and making us feel comforta...ble. I have already recommended him to several of our friends and family members who want to start planning for the future.

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.
