Trust Execution and Closure

As a trustee, I used Ryan's services for administering details in the execution and closing of a Trust. Ryan was succinct, courteous, knowledgeable and prompt in answering questions. He was very professional with the final letters to beneficiaries, and his estimate of costs for services was correct.... I would definitely recommend his services.

Great Probate Attorney

Ryan at the Jackson White Law firm was assigned to handle the probate process after a good friend of mine passed away. Ryan did an excellent job in keeping me informed during the probate process, and always provided me with a quick response to the many email questions I posed to him. I was very impre...ssed with the level of service Ryan provided. I have no hesitations in recommending Ryan to others.

Top Probate Attorney in AZ

After my brother’s passing, I contacted numerous attorneys in the Phoenix area to assist me with the probate process of his estate. I live in another state and had no idea what was involved in being a Personal Representative. Ryan Hodges spent the most time with me, detailing what was involved and h...ow the process works. This easily made the decision for me to select Ryan at JacksonWhite Law. He kept me informed on what was happening, what actions I needed to do, and on any expectations that were upcoming. He was very accessible to answer any questions that I had throughout the process. He made everything stress-free for me and I felt confident that I had a professional and extremely knowledgeable attorney in my corner. I highly recommend Ryan Hodges.

Ryan Hodges is amazing!

Ryan Hodges @ JacksonWhite was an incredible help during the probate of my mother's estate. While the estate was not even remotely large, Ryan treated me like a valued client, and I really appreciated his welcoming attitude and attention to detail. He was beyond excellent at keeping me appraised of w...hat both he, and I, needed to do, and also kept me well-updated, and well-informed throughout the process. Although the estate was quite small, there were other factors that were rather challenging, and Ryan and JacksonWhite were always up to the task. I cannot recommend them enough, nor can I thank Ryan enough for all of his hard work! Thank you, Ryan, and all the folks at JacksonWhite! :)

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.
