Excellent, informative and professional estate planning attorney

I am an attorney, and I also do estate planning. My wife and I wanted estate planning, by an independent attorney, and we mutually chose Larry . Each of us met and spoke with him. Both of us, and he, were comfortable and confident that he could represent both of us, and we were very satisfied with... his explanations, advice, thoroughness and his honesty in developing an estate plan that fit our wishes, concerns and needs. We highly recommend him.

Skilled, experienced, and kind

Larry Gaddis has prepared and updated a will, power of attorney, living will and related documents for me over the past 20 years. He and his assistant Angelika also helped me through the estate process after my husband died. I am grateful for their assistance and support.

Did NOT Over-Promise, Nor Under-Deliver

Hired Larry and Paralegal Angelika to create and then update my Will. Larry's patience and ability to answer my questions without suggesting that I create the Will one way or another was fantastic. He educated me on what my requests might mean in real world context. He helped me answer my own ques...tions by using his experience and wisdom, and this is something that simply, a younger attorney would not be able to accomplish.

Updated wills for myself and wife and included necessary medical / legal forms to be in control of end of life issues.

Very Satisfied!

My wife and i engaged Larry and his office for the preparation of our wills. He gave us a packet of questions to take home and discuss. We sent the packet back to his Para-Legal (Angelika) and within 2 days, they called to schedule a convenient time to come in and sign the documents. There was way... more to think about than a "simple" will. Larry was so very patient with us, and has a great demeanor that helped us understand what we were signing and agreeing to. He made certain that all and any of our questions were answered in terminology that WE could understand. We HIGHLY recommend Larry to anyone that needs a will, or needs to have their will updated. Their office was beautiful and comfortable and everyone there helped to make us feel at ease. Thanks Larry and Angelika!

  • 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.
