Family Trust, well done!

We had put off getting a trust for years and realized we were running out of time. After searching the internet, I found Berry Peters website easy to understand and learned a lot about wills and trusts from it. I made an appointment with him, filled out a form from his website to bring with me and wa...s surprised how easy it was to have our trust made up. Thanks a to Barry Peters experience, he had answers to our questions and brought up things we would not have thought of. I feel very confident that our trust was done properly and complete.

Professional, Personable and thorough

Mr. Peters was immediately responsive to my initial inquiry and made an appointment with us right away at our convenience. In our initial meeting he was professional, personable, thorough, fair and just tremendously helpful. Our family knew immediately what we needed to do from the choices he gave us.... Since then, the months to follow just showed more of the same characteristics. Each email was concise and guided in exactly what we needed to do. Coming up on a year and we are through with the probate case and he was with us the whole way steering us. We highly recommend him. We wish you well, Mr. Peters and are so thankful.

Barry did an excellent job answering all our questions and concerns with attention to our specific situation. Time was of the essence in our particular situation and Barry made sure that our entire estate planning package was very quickly but thoroughly completed. This was a huge relief for us; we h...ighly recommend him without reservation.

living trust

Barry was wonderful to us. He answered all our questions, addressed our concerns, and , drum roll , please, was reasonably priced. The trust was written in a timely manner and executed with integrity. He provided us with a checklist of tasks and instructions on how to complete them. Overall, it was... a painless experience, and we are as happy as we could be with the service and product. Thank you, thank you, Barry.
