Estate Planning and Administration

My parents died, at different times, within the last two years (2013 and 2015). Robert prepared their family trust and other estate and healthcare documents (such as durable powers of attorney, healthcare powers of attorney, and wills) approximately fifteen years ago. I am the trustee of my parents...' family trust. After my parents died, I went to Robert for help with the administration of their estates. Robert was patient with me and explained well the steps I needed to take and procedures I needed to follow. Robert's advice was thoughtful, practical, matter of fact, and to the point. Robert was able to explain how different assets were titled, the different procedures for transferring a variety of assets, and whether court proceedings would be necessary. Robert's work and documentation (such as trustee certificates, notices, and property distribution documents) were helpful and timely. Because Robert did a good job planning with my parents and helping them get their family trust set-up years ago, the administration of their estates after their deaths went smoothly. The breadth and depth of Robert's business, tax, real estate and probate experience was invaluable when it came to evaluating creditor claims and making property distribution decisions after my parents' deaths.

Excellence personified

I have engaged Robert on several occasions with respect to trusts and estates, business organization and investment counsel. His attention to detail is outstanding, and his trenchant legal advice is thoughtful and wise. He is clearly the best general matter lawyer I have had the pleasure to hire an...d am pleased to recommend him without qualification.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
