Estate Planning 60%

There are a myriad of legal strategies you might consider implementing as you design your estate plan. Regardless, there are a handful of "must have" estate planning documents you must create before anything else. Will, Health Care Directive, Power of Attorney, Trusts.

60%
Elder Law 20%

Generally speaking, Elder Law can be defined as the holistic application of general legal principles to the specific emotional, logistical and financial needs of mature Americans. You may not be willing to admit that you may become incapacitated and perhaps need expensive long-term care in the future. However, denial is not a strategy and there is no time like the present to plan.

John Lane did a great job for us.

We moved to Texas from Arizona in 2018 and knew we needed to update our Estate Planning documents. That never sounds like something you want to run out and take care of. They made the process easy and painless. We contacted John and Charlee of John M. Lane Law and they did an awesome job in taking... care of us. After an initial interview John understood what we wanted to accomplish. He listened carefully, providing great feedback and ideas, and addressed our questions thoughtfully and directly. While our estate is not complicated, we felt important and valued. He gave us several action items to take care of and once we completed our tasks, they provided us a set of draft documents to review and update if needed. All the “paperwork” for review was electronic so it was easy to work through the review process. Once completed we received a complete hard copy set of the entire Estate Planning Portfolio, covering all our estate planning needs. They were timely and responsive with the documents they prepared and updated for us. Our conversations were both friendly and professional. Their fee was quite reasonable. All this was done in the environment of the Covid-19 pandemic. All our meetings were on line, except for when we had to physically sign the formal documents. For that meeting appropriate protections were used to ensure all our safety. We actually signed our documents in our car, while John stood outside as we signed them. We would highly recommend John M. Lane Law for any services they provide.

Exceeded our expectations

The Lane law team exceeded our expectations! We now have a comprehensive estate plan. The entire process was very smooth, we learned a lot about the various estate planning options available to us. We were very pleased with his recommendations and the choices we made. John patiently answered a...ll of our questions, and is very knowledgeable, experienced and professional! I have recommended John Lane for estate planning, to several of our good friends. Definitely a 5 star experience.

Outstanding legal service provided to me and my wife for our estate plan. Attorney Lane clearly explained our options in short order. He provided to us a draft copy of our estate plan prior to having a final meeting with us. He described the contents of each document at the meeting in clear and ...simple terms. We referred our son to him who also had an estate plan prepared. WE believe that his cost was fair and of good value to us

Excellent Estate Planning Attorney

John Lane did an excellent job getting all of our estate planning documents in order. He is an excellent listener and provided many helpful suggestions so that our wishes were implemented in the most efficient way possible. After finishing all discussions and signing the documents - he provided us ...with a well organized Estate Planning Portfolio notebook containing the documents as well as some additional suggested pages for us to fill in which will provide our executors with a clear roadmap to easily implement our wishes. Highly recommended!

HANDS-DOWN – Mr. John Lane is your ticket. He is FANTASTIC!

If you are in need of an attorney for your estate planning: HANDS-DOWN – Mr. John Lane is your ticket. He is FANTASTIC!!! We were concerned about updating our wills and needed a good attorney. We Googled for the best estate planning attorney and John’s name popped up. We called three attorneys and h...e was the only one that returned our call. The other two calls were retuned three and four days later. We made an appointment. We arrived at his office, were warmly greeted and promptly brought into his office. He was very cheerful and immediately made us feel at ease. He has a great personality, great bedside manners, and very professional. He took the edge out of a difficult situation explaining all our options. John patiently answered each question that we had without ever coming across as patronizing. His manner was warm and open, and it seemed more like having a conversation with a friend. It felt great to have our questions answered so confidently and in layman's terms. We came in with a three page will and ended up with a binder. Yes, John is very thorough. He covered everything we wanted and things we hadn’t thought about. He covered it all:  Last Will and Testament  Statutory Durable Power of Attorney  Health Care Power of Attorney  Medical Directive  HIPAA Authorization  Declaration of Guardian  …and more Mr. Lane made the whole situation a more pleasant experience!! I HIGHLY recommend John Lane!!! If you are in need of an attorney for your estate planning, again: HANDS-DOWN – Mr. John Lane is your ticket. He is FANTASTIC!!!
