Will preparation

Beth helped us prepare our Wills and we are very happy with the whole process. She brought to our attention several scenarios for us to consider that we had not thought of.

Posted by Nanette | September 29, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Wills & Living Wills

Very personable and knowledgable attorney

Beth was very knowledgeable and guided me through the process of preparing my Will. This was the first time for me to have a Will prepared and she was very patient with me and took the time to explain why certain paragraphs were needed with regard to the laws of the state of Texas. I liked the ...small office atmosphere, I don't feel like I'm paying for a group of attorneys, just my attorney. Beth was very personable and I wouldn't hesitate to call her if I had a question or needed more legal assistance.

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY

I found Ms. Serafini-Smith to be extremely knowledgeable and straight forward. I appreciated that she had considerable experience in preparing wills and brought many issues to my attention. I most definitely would highly recommend her to anyone in need of legal assistance. I will continue to use h...er services whenever the need arises.

Posted by Dean | April 03, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Wills & Living Wills

Very happy

Was very helpful in our transition of legal issues with Will and Trust moving to Texas from another state. She had all the answers and got them to us promptly. Very accommodating, would definitely recommend Serafini-Smith to anyone who is looking to update or write Will or Trust... It was painless an...d easy, thanks to Beth..

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.
