My husband and I were recently referred to Tom when we moved to Arizona and needed to update our estate planning. We had hired a recommended attorney in San Jose to create our initial package 5 years ago and we were basically happy with it--we just needed minor updating. Tom could have simply mad...e the minor updates we requested, updated the language to suit Arizona and current law, and been done with it, especially since he had quoted us a very reasonable, flat-rate, package-revision fee. Instead, he broached good questions, made recommendations for improvements, replaced existing language with language that was stronger legally, and generally delivered an estate package superior to what we originally had. Tom's service was impeccable, he was personally responsive, he turned the package around quickly, and he is obviously well informed about estate law. You get the impression that he is, in fact, passionate about what he does. Although we just got our package about 2 weeks ago, I've already happily recommended him to several acquaintances.

I recently met with Tom Bouman to update my will. He is a wonderful wealth of knowledge in his profession. He is thorough and pleasant and very professional. I feel very well taken care of as Tom, because of his excellent knowledge, made sure that all my bases were covered. It is alway a delight ...to meet with him. He is very good at what he does.

Establishing a trust was quite painless and very illuminating because of Tom's comprehensive knowledge, response and sensitivity to my requests. Tom addressed areas I had not considered but, through his guidance, I learned were crucial to the end result of my plans. Tom's thoroughness and demeanor ...bolstered my confidence in the process/product and my trust in him.
