A CARING AND HIGHLY SKILLED ATTORNEY

Ms. Fox was recommended to me by my financial advisor and also by my bank Trust officer. My son died eighteen months ago with two minor children, as a result my existing will and trust documents required a significant review and necessary revision's. In addition, my wife's health was also a signific...ant concern, although she is not currently in hospice care she is still in a serious condition, so time was important. I had tried for the last twelve months to rework my legal documents. Because of my personal difficulties and the difficult my previous attorney and friend of twenty years was experiencing we had not been able to complete the necessary rework to my current documents. I was very concerned and so I contacted Ms. Fox. She promptly and professionally assumed responsibility to assess my needs and desires and properly revise my legal documents. During my 40-year career I have worked with many talented attorneys on many complex business arrangements in the U.S. and a number of foreign countries. Ms. Fox's abilities clearly ranks with the very best legal professionals I have worked with. In addition she is a caring and understanding individual. It was a joy to work with Ms. Fox and resolve my legal needs. I highly recommend her as a caring and highly skilled attorney.

Excellent Attorney

Ms. Fox and her office were wonderful to work with. She accommodated our mobility challenges by meeting with us in our home. She provided information and recommendations for our wills, powers of attorney, and advance directives. Documents were prepared promptly and brought to us to sign. Additional...ly, she prepared a transfer deed for some property we wanted to give to a family member. Very caring and professional attorney. Highly recommend her.

If you want a lawyer who cares- hire Mrs. Tena Fox

My sister and I came to Mrs Fox at one of the most devastating times in our lives. Mrs Fox and her legal staff we're compassionate and caring. They were professional and in taking all the legal worries out of our hands we will able to care for our brother. We felt confident with them never worried ab...out our legal woes. They advise you, consult and counsel you, and even comfort you. If I had a problem, they always responded promptly. From day one, even after the loss of our brother, through all that follows They walk hand in hand with you. Thank you Mrs Fox , Melissa. And all her staff.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
