The Best!

Having a sound, accurate and legally correct will is a gift of peace of mind that we can leave to those we love. Chris Gaddis provided me with those things. I especially appreciated the fact that he made me aware of options but there was no pressure to select any particular option. He answered my que...stions with skill and great knowledge of the law. He did what he said he would do when he said he would do it—what a rare and amazing thing in our world! Finally, he is a genuine and compassionate person.. I would highly recommend him.

Estate Planning

We hired Jeff Althaus to help us with all things estate, wills, and trusts. What can be daunting, confusing and heavy discussions, Jeff made easy and at times enjoyable. We appreciated his detailed itinerary of our homework assignments after each meeting, the thoroughness of explaining all the docume...nts, the depth to which he took us on how to consider our wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and caregivers in the event of our passing. We are very grateful we have this completed and feel confident in our hiring of Jeff to help us with the process.

Highly recommend

Very knowledgeable and helpful! Explained each step thoroughly and helped me decide what I needed to give me peace of mind. He was honest and I felt like he gave me options based on my needs, even if it meant less money that I paid him. I appreciated his professionalism.

Working with Chris

Chris took care of all my current estate needs and provided me with valuable guidance as to every facet I needed to address, including things I did not think about. In particular, I needed a beneficial deed for my property which was a little more complex than the usual deed, and he was able to produc...e exactly the deed I needed. I enjoyed working with him and if I need anything else later in this arena, I will be working with him again. A pleasure to work with!

Wonderful experience

Jeff and his staff were amazing to work with. My husband recently passed away and I needed to redo my will that Jeff had done for us five years ago. Jeff guided me through the process making sure that I understood each step in a clear manner. His staff was always happy to see me and made sure I h...ad what I needed to be comfortable and feel welcome. I have and will continue to recommend Althaus Law Firm to my friends and family.

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.
