My fiance and I meet with Thomas Bouman a few months ago to complete estate planning prior to our wedding. We spent a few hours one on one with him to review all of our wishes, he explained the general rational for estate planning and his recommendations for our specific situation. Within a couple w...eeks he had our documents ready and we reviewed them in his office. He was very professional and courteous. In addition, his website makes it very convenient. Overall I would recommend him to my friends and family.

I haven't dealt with a lot of attorneys over my many years and generally didn't trust them. However, Tom has proven to me over the several years that I've known him as my estate attorney and know that he is honest, reliable, and down-to-earth in explaining what my needs are and how they should be ha...ndled. He is efficient and timely in everything he has done for me. I would recommend him highly.

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.

Tom Bouman is a great attorney. He really helped me navigate my way thru the unfamiliar process of planning my estate and setting up my trust. He was patient and took the time to really explain things, making sure I understood everything as we went along. The fees for his service are highly competi...tive and we completed my whole estate plan within the span of 3 weeks. Pretty awesome. I highly recommend him.
