Ana Maria Hernandez-Pace

What a surprise here. I am 93 years old trying to figure out what to do with the remnants of my long life. My grandson has contacted the Shutt Law Firm to help me with estate planning at this stage of my life. A young lawyer by the name of Ana showed up and made me feel like I was a member of the fam...ily immediately. Not only was she very knowledgeable but she made me feel so much at ease that it was a pleasure talking to her. She spent some time interviewing me and asking me questions about my past and family. I was really anxious to find out all options I had. She explained the advantages of the various options. Having been through a lot of time spent in various probate courts over the years I had decided that I did not want a will with its obligations. I had already through another attorney executed transfer on death of my two houses and my tree farm in Polk County. Ana checked into them and found that the wording was not to my best interest. Ana explained the various options and she drew up papers necessary to transfer all my properties out of my wife's name to take care of past failures to record certain things. Her expertise on all of this was outstanding. I would recommend her and the Law Firm to anyone. I want to apologize for any inconvenience that she may have endured but she was a real trooper. Being very hard of hearing she was able to set up a laptop so that I could read all of her comments. It all went so well. Thank you very much for sending an attorney that knows what they're doing. Best of luck always to your firm.

Ana Hernandez-Pace helped my family with estate planning for my grandfather. He is nearly deaf and has been home bound for some time, so we knew that communication would be a challenge, especially considering the pandemic. However, Ana went above and beyond what we expected of her. She was able to ma...ke a home visit with him. She wore a mask and maintained proper social distance per CDC guidelines. And she was able to type everything out on a screen for my grandfather to read so that he could fully understand the documents she was drafting for him to sign. My grandfather praised her kindness and professionalism throughout the process. I would highly recommend Ana for estate planning and other legal needs. She is competent, patient, and considerate. She truly has a gift working with elderly people with hearing issues like my grandfather. Thank you!

I found myself in a position I had to get a probate lawyer. I picked Ana based on reviews. I wasn’t sure how it was going to work out. I walked into her office overwhelmed and left her office feeling relieved. She is kind, professional, efficient and very knowledgeable. She didn’t waste my money or ...time. I recommend her to anyone that needs a will or probate help. I just can’t praise her enough!
