Trust Setup

We first met with Mark Wight in September to do our estate planning and set up our trusts. We have been very satisfied with Mark and his staff in getting this complicated process completed.

Top Estate Planner in Idaho

When my wife and I moved to Idaho, we researched estate planners and Mark's name was always at the top of the list. After meeting him, we knew he was the best estate planner for us. As Mark helped us set up our trust, he took the time to get to know us, he ask questions, gave us suggestions answe...red our many questions and guided us through the process to have a trust with details that met all of our goals. He is very thorough. This past year Mark helped our daughter set up her will and also helped us with other legal issues. When I have questions, I can call and be confident I will receive the answers and help I need. When changes were needed in our trust, Mark and his team were right there to guide us through the changes. Mark and his associates are professional, kind, and very knowledgeable. They made the process easy, enjoyable, and informative. I highly recommend Idaho Estate Planning to others who are ready to secure their future needs. R&J

Review and Recommendation

I, along with my late wife, have been clients of the law firm ”Idaho Estate Planning” since September of 2002. During this time they have prepared four Trusts for us, directed at providing for a final disposition of our assets to our heirs in a simple, direct and tax efficient manner. We have been ...very satisfied with the quality of their work, in both the initial preparation, and the ongoing maintenance of these Trusts. The firm’s assistance in the transition to successor trusts, pursuant to the demise of my late wife, was prompt and effective. I have found both the principal, Mr. Mark E. Wight, and the staff of the firm, to be professional, trust worthy, prompt, courteous, and efficient in their work. They have always evidenced a willingness to listen, and to work through our desires and concerns, consistent with the requirements of the various laws and regulations. I give a full and unqualified recommendation of this firm to any who may consider using their services.
