This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Very helpful

Corey offered useful advice concerning a charitable trust issue I was dealing with. He understood my objectives as well as my concerns and I will definitely follow up on his recommendations.

Goes Over and Above

In December, my world was turned upside down. My best friend, my mentor, my dear father passed away. I needed legal assistance to guide me through the probate process. I called Corey's office on a Sunday and left a message on his answering machine. Because it was a Sunday I didn't expect to receive a... call back until Monday at the earliest. I was pleasantly surprised and extremely grateful when I received a call within a few hours on the same day. I was so emotional and sad and needed legal advice. The minute I started explaining my situation, Corey immediately put me at ease and took a considerable amount of time explaining the probate process to me. I retained his services and he made a painful situation bearable. His level of professionalism, his people skills and compassion far exceeded my expectations. I will always remember how he took the time on a Sunday afternoon to return a phone call. He sensed the sadness in my voice. He kept me informed and answered all of my questions from start to finish. I would recommend this wonderful lawyer without hesitation. Not only does he offer outstanding legal services, he also offers free seminars which are very informative and open to the general public. I would recommend anyone with estate planning needs or anyone who wants to empower themselves with valuable information to attend one of his seminars. Over the years I have heard a lot of bad comments and jokes about lawyers and used car salesmen, but Corey is definitely one of the good guys.

A Great Estate and Probate Attorney

Corey came highly recommended to us when we were looking for an estate planner. After our first meeting, we understood why. He's very knowledgeable, thorough and enjoyable to work with. He took the time to understand our wants and needs and created an extensive plan personalized to our young famil...y that reached far beyond our expectations. Not long after, Cory also helped us through the probate process for a loved one. Through both experiences, he gave a clear understanding of each process and what we should expect, was quick to answer our questions and kept us updated along the way. We are glad we found Corey and have since recommended him to our own family and friends.

Excellent attorney for trusts and wills.

Corey helped us revise and update our trust and wills. He showed great interest in us and was extremely thorough. Corey spent considerable time explaining the whole process. We believe he is an excellent attorney and would recommend him to anyone needing help revising or creating a trust.

Review: Corey Rasmussen

Corey, was great. He went above and beyond my expectations. He came to our house to provide services (more than once). He was very patient and helpful to me. He actually sorted my mail related to our business! He was easy to talk to and explained things at a level that was understandable to us.
