About Brent

When not practicing law, I enjoy spending time with my family--being outdoors, playing games, singing and serving others.  My wife, Beth, is a Physical Therapist and currently spends most of her time as a home educator.  We are active in our church and enjoy bible study.  We have an enthusiastic Irish Goldendoodle named Sherlock.

    Review Brent Kellenberger

    Great Service

    Posted by

    He spent several hours explaining the options with a Trust and making sure we understood every aspect. As the process was moving along he was very open to making changes and adding things that came to our attention.

    I was shopping around for a trust and my Bankers Life recommended Brent Kellenberger. I was very impressed with his professionalism and how he questioned me to obtain the facts he needed. His finished product and follow up are impeccable and I would highly recommend him if it is time for a trust since probate in Arizona takes up to a year to accomplish and is unnecessary if you want to leave your loved ones a hassle free endeavor when your time is over.

    Brent explained our options and the criteria for choices very clearly. We were not rushed and had all our questions answered. We were able to get all documents we requested done and delivered in a timely way. The costs were fair. We were able to set up a Living Trust, Medical and Legal Powers of Attorney, Medical Directives, and he coordinated with our Financial Advisors to get necessary paperwork completed there as well.

    Easy to recommend Brent Kellenberger.

    Brent was thorough, attentive and timely. He made my Trust easier to understand. I had asked for my Missouri trust to be revised and the results were more than I expected. Brent understood my concerns regarding my family and my estate and their future beyond my life. He was well versed in estate law and is a skilled professional. It is easy to recommend Brent.

    I met Brent over a year ago and have come to respect his sincere concern and high degree of care for his clients, his integrity, and his skill and dedication to elder law. I highly recommend his services and feel secure in knowing that any clients I refer to him will be well served.

    Kyle Krull, Elder law Attorney on Feb 27, 2013
    Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

    I have known Brent Kellenberger since he was admitted to practice law in 2005. I regularly refer clients (and prospective clients referred to me) to him for elder law assistance. Brent has years of hands-on experience working with the elderly in a wide variety of settings. This is of great comfort to family members who find themselves in the role of caregiver, especially in crisis situations. I recommend Brent, without hesitation, to anyone seeking an excellent practitioner who provides legal services with a warm and caring personal touch.
