Christopher Michael Gaughan

Our experience with Mr. Gaughan was excellent!! He got right down to business, asked the right questions, and got the work done for us in two sessions. Because he has expertise with trusts, and the law, he could anticipate problems we might encounter, and gave a good, clear explanation as to why he w...as including information and procedures in the trust that we would never have considered.

Chris provided a very thorough review of our trust and did a complete re-statement of the entire trust documents. New and useful components were added, as well as appropriate changes made to update and enhance the contents. We are very happy with all of this and with Chris as our lawyer. We highly ...recommend him as a trusted partner in planning and instigating valued materials to make this process smooth and easy for us and for our family. We feel that Chris is the best!

My wife and I took advantage of the free evening program put on by Gaughan and Connealy back in 2013 and later hired Chris Gaughan to do our estate planning. First thing that sold us was not only Chris's professionalism, but his knowledge and his passion for what he does. The process was very easy an...d thorough. Chris brought up scenarios/issues that were unforeseen but were important to have in our plans. The timing could not have been more perfect for setting up our estate, because my wife unexpectedly passed away 2 years later. When I met with Chris after her death, he reassured me that because we set things up originally, I am able to provide for our children in exactly the way my wife and I had planned, without the government taking what WE earned. Gaughan and Connealy doesn't nickel and dime you for every little service. Their one time fee is just that. I shared my experience with friends who said that their lawyers charge a fee for every visit and/or consultation. Their passion for what they do and their compassion for their clients really comes through on how they do business. They are the real deal. There's real security in planning ahead. Thank You Gaughan and Connealy.

For about 10 years my husband and I kept saying, "we need to prepare a trust or a will". We had already planned and paid for our funerals but trying to figure out the will or trust was overwhelming to us. We received an invitation in the mail to attend a seminar. We had received many of these in th...e past and never had any interest in attending but the questions on the flyer were almost word for word the questions we had. A slide presentation, which was quite interesting, was going while we waited for the seiminar to begin. As Chris discussed the the different reasons and explained the many different family demographics that will change the items that need to be addressed in a trust or will, we were comfortable that Chris was a very knowledgeable attorney and we needed to at least attend an initial discussion with him one on one. After meeting with Chris we both agreed that Chris and his firm were whom we wanted to execute our Trust documents. We have combined two families and had no idea how this would work. We wanted to make sure what we had worked for would go to our children and grandchildren - not that we don't love our "in-laws". He answered every question we had telling us different options we had. He explained how he would take care of the any documents that needed to be changed to fund the trust. Chris is laid back which made us comfortable. But even more the knowledge that Chris has and the documentation we now have received from Gaughan & Connealy has given us a peace of mind. We know are wishes are organized and in a legal format that our children and grandchildren will be thankful for down the road.
