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.

Estate Planning

We have used Barry on three separate occassions over the past 15 years to create and then update our wills. On this most recent visit he advised us to create a trust rather than a will and we saw the many benefits of doing it this way. He has always been very helpful and thorough in guiding us along ...the way and his professionalism and knowledge have been excellent. We highly recommend him.

Painless and inexpensive

The process was quick, easy, and inexpensive. We appreciated Mr. Peters' expert advice.

I couldn't be happier with an attorney

It has been my pleasure working with Barry Peter's on my mom's probate. He is always very responsive, thoroughly answers our questions, very knowledgeable and follows through on what he says he will do. This has been an area I knew nothing about and he has been so very helpful. I highly recommend ...Barry for your probate and estate planning needs.
