I was thoroughly satisfied

I was thoroughly satisfied to be referred to Deb Sexton’s Law Firm. She and her staff were more than compassionate and experienced working with me. Deb and Ben made everything easier for me and gave me peace of mind for my family. Deb worked hard on many details to get my estate in order and communic...ated with me frequently to keep me informed while working on the estate plan. It was a service that made me feel at ease. Deb and her staff were always kind and efficient. If you need confidence in planning your estate, call Deb Sexton!!

I was extremely pleased

I was extremely pleased with the way the Sexton Law Firm handled my parents' trust. They covered everything that was necessary. Not being schooled in these types of actions, they handled everything very professionally. They were very kind and caring. Their patience with myself and my parents was grea...tly appreciated. I have and will continue to recommend them to all my friends.
