Thorough & Responsive

It was a complete pleasure to work with Rebecca Saunders. She helped us with setting up a living trust, a will, power of attorney and a living will. She made the process easy to understand. She was thorough, responsive and put us at ease. We were relieved to have these documents completed and it took... little time. We highly recommend Rebecca to anyone in need of estate planning or assistance with trusts.

Thorough, flexible, attentive to detail

My brother required a lawyer to review and explain the responsibilities associated with the Power of Guardianship components of my Australian will. Rebecca was recommended to me by my parents who use her firm for their wills and trusts, I contacted Rebecca and she was able to ascertain the document, ...explain it clearly, and witness his signatures.

Like dealing with a trusted family memeber

I consulted and eventually hired Rebecca to interpret the family trust, and later she put together power of attorney for me. I found Rebecca to be very cordial, very articulate, super professional, with a strong attention to details. She was very prompt and timely. I will definitely recommend her an...d use her services again.

Rebecca Sanders is awesome!

Rebecca Sanders helped me set up my Trust. She was very efficient, knowledgeable and truly a pleasure to work with. I referred her to another one of my clients and they were highly satisfied with the experience they had with her as well.

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.

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.
