We definitely chose the best attorney for our estate planning document. Our needs were met as to what specifically we needed to accomplish. We are very satisfied with the service that Mike provided for us and found him thorough, efficient and truly caring as to the quality of his work. We only have praise for the service that we received from Mike. In addition, his fee was very reasonable. My husband and I highly recommend Mike Massey.

First-Class Estate Planning
I hired Mike Massey in 2019 outside of Avvo to develop Texas estate planning documents. I found Mike to be a virtuous man - humble, patience, friendly, with good legal acumen. In addition, Mike is efficient and thorough while demonstrating strong problem solving solutions. I highly recommend Mike Massey Law to anyone, no matter their family relations, medical situation, material possessions, or legal issues to assist in one's estate planning.

Exceptional Integrity and Competence
Mike Massey is a person of exceptional integrity and competence; the two most important qualities needed in a lawyer. His ability to make a complex process clear and straightforward was greatly beneficial to our family. I thought about trying to do our family's estate planning on my own through Legal Zoom. There is no way that I could have come close to the quality of Mike's work. The cost/value proposition was exceptional; I could find no other law firm in Austin that provided the same services at the same costs. Thank you Mike.

Outstanding experience, great people - professional, a pleasure to work with.
Mike, David, and the others on their team did a fantastic job getting my paperwork put together quickly and efficiently. I was worried it was going to be a time-consuming and cumbersome process, but these guys have got it figured out. I would highly recommend them for anybody looking for help with estate planning.

Completion of Will
I went to Mike Massey Law for assistance with updating my will. He scheduled me in an expedient manner and waived the questionnaire since I had a previous will. He was knowledgeable and efficient. I felt assured that all areas were addressed to avoid probate. I would recommend him highly.

Positive Experience
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Alberto Velasquez of Mike Massey Law Firm. He met with us in a Zoom Call, gathered our information, and just two days later, all documents were completed. We met with him at the law office to sign. Alberto is full of information and helped make the process smooth and non-stressful. We would highly recommend Mike Massey & his partners for your legal needs. Very positive experience!

Top notch estate planners
We completed our estate plan with Mike Massey Law. Mike and Albert are real pros at this stuff. We set up our estate to avoid the long and expensive process of going through probate. I have been an executor in the past and had an idea of how to avoid the pitfalls. I wanted documents created and signed by a lawyer, yet want the process to be simple and inexpensive for our heirs. Mike Massey Law doesn't develop plans based on collecting huge fees. They developed the most cost effective, easy to execute plans to meet our needs. They way exceeded my expectations! A+ 5 stars!

Estate Planning made easy!
We used Mike Massey Law for our Last Will, Durable Power of Attorney and Health Care Powers for my elderly parents. The process was very easy, from the very beginning, filled out a questionnaire, booked a video chat, and they secured linked drafts for use to look over. We booked a signing appointment. Alberto Velazquez did a super job for us, the staff was wonderful as well. I would highly recommend Mike Massey Law to anyone needing detailed estate planning. 5 Stars to Mike Massey Law Firm.

Peace of Mind
Alberto Vasquez of the Mike Massey Law firm is fantastic. He is engaging, informative and reassuring. The process is beyond efficient. The initial consult was approximately 15minutes. The online paperwork portion took approximately 45minutes. We then had two zoom calls and met in person for signing. The final set of documents was comprehensive and as stated, provided us with peace of mind. In all honesty, other than the QA paperwork, we had very little to do. The price for a family trust was extremely affordable ; ultimately providing more than we expected. Most of all, we felt that Alberto truly advocated for our best interests. What more can you want when making potentially end of life choices? We briefly met Mike and Melissa who were likewise professional and engaging. Without hesitation we wholly recommend Alberto and the Office of Mike Massey.

Great team, easy process
The Mike Massey Law team made our estate planning process a breeze! I had shopped around at several firms but after my initial phone consult with Mike the decision to work with him was easy. Mike has such a friendly and open demeanor and he was able to explain my options clearly which was important as I had no idea what we even needed for our estate plan. I was impressed that Mike handled both the initial phone call and zoom meeting himself; and for the second zoom meeting Albert was amazing going over each document and explaining exactly what it entailed and answering all of our questions. The signing was complete in under 20 minutes and at the end we received a very professional binder with all of our documents. I would highly recommend Mike Massey Law!
