Super Experience

Dan helped us with a will, and did an outstanding job. He is very organized and has a great attention to detail. He was also very patient and did a great job explaining all of the details, since this was our first experience with a will. I would highly recommend him to others!

Great Estate planning attorney

My wife and i needed to do estate planning. Mr Dorsch did an excellent job listening to our situation and then setting up trusts that were tailored to our needs. I highly recommend him.

High Value, High Integrity - Exceptional Client Centered Delivery

I am in the business of working with world class individuals-Olympians, Olympic medallist, multiple medal winning Olympic coaches, teams, and programs. So, when I met Dan the bar was high in expectation. I can truthfully say, I consider Dan and the subsequent work he did for our family-world class. I...t was exceptional and beyond measure, as is Dan himself. It was a tremendous privilege for our family to partner with Dan's to assess and redefine our needs for our family trust given an extended move overseas. I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have retained his services-discovered a world class individual, one committed to delivering the right result at the right time and with high level engagement. More and more today, it is difficult to locate individuals who have and demonstrate high integrity and deep care for clients. From the first time I met with Dan, I knew our family would be well looked after. Dan demonstrated a thorough approach and process that ensured our family's needs were 'center stage' and paramount when developing our trust. He has an extraordinary ability to make you feel at ease, involve and educate you on the estate / legal processes. He helped create real clarity for me on tough issues which required immediate decisions-ones that would inevitably affect the future of those I hold most dear-my family. Getting it right, was essential. One great example of Dan's commitment and understanding may be that we needed to get a final asset approved and we were coming cross barriers in time and location-our flights were due to depart in days, Dan leveraged his skill, local resources and personal contacts to ensure our last asset received the special and unique signature it needed to be included. This was an extraordinary. Simply put Dan is 'high value.

Dan Dorsch personally assisted my 87 year old mother

Dan Dorsch personally assisted my 87 year old mother with revising her living will. I found his sincerity and genuine personality a necessary factor in picking the right firm for wills and trust. Thanks to Dan, my mother had ease in getting what she wanted.
