Fast and Efficient! Not put on a back burner!

I needed someone to wade thru the Probate legal steps quickly, efficiently and communicate all the Probate / Court actions needed along the way. I was impressed and never was left waiting and wondering. Definitely worth the meager fee to relieve myself of all the Court processes and hassles. Every... step was given attention in the utmost professional, expediant manner and communication was top notch!

Mr. Hodges I had the best experience working with Mr. Hodges. The process to go through Probate was much easier then I thought. He always replied to my email and phone calls. He took the time to explain everything I needed to do. Mr. Hodges is a great lawyer. Thank you for your help.

Outstanding

After the passing of my Dad I knew I would need professional help through the process of probate and executor of my dad's estate. I searched online for an attorney and contacted Mr. Ryan Hodges at JacksonwWhite Law. He contacted me right away! After consulting with Mr. Hodges I knew I wanted him as m...y attorney. Mr Hodges walked me through the probate process with utmost professionalism and all my questions answered promptly! He was very thorough with any and all details. I felt very confident having hired Mr Hodges as my attorney. I highly recommend him to anyone going through probate and executor of and estate. I would definitely use Mr Hodges again! Thank you Yvonne

Great choice for my no-will probate case!

When researching probate lawyers to guide us in handling my parent’s estate, Jackson White (and specifically Ryan Hodges) were immediately responsive to our inquiry. I had to leave messages with other firms and await call backs — some of which never came. Jackson White won my business as a result of ...their responsiveness, fair pricing, and willingness to work with me when there was no Will to guide the process. Throughout the 9 month process, Ryan’s communication was clear, fast and he always had the answers to my questions. He also directly responded to questions and needs of the other heirs in my case easing these additional burdens for me. I appreciated the assistance received in preparation and filing of all court paperwork and public notices, as well as Ryan’s governance of all timelines. I highly recommend Jackson White and Attorney Ryan Hodges.

Fantastic Estate/Trust Lawyer

Ryan Hodges was really helpful to my sisters and I after we lost both our parents within just a few short months in 2021. Every step of what needed to be done, and when, was clearly outlined for us, in writing, as well as explained. He spent a lot of time patiently clarifying details for settling t...he estates and trust. For over a year and a half, he checked in every couple of weeks to see how we were doing and if we needed any assistance. We (my sisters and I) were all from outside of Arizona, so he had his hands full relaying legalities and filing all the paperwork, while dealing with us primarily remotely. Most importantly, we were treated like family! Jackson White Law Firm’s great respect for my parents and their wishes was always clear. I highly recommend Ryan Hodges and the Jackson White Law Firm.

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.
