Tom's a Great Advisor!

Based on a recommendation from a friend, we hired Tom in 2008 to do our Family Revocable Living Trust. Tom explained every step of the process as we worked together on our estate planning documents. He is an extremely knowledgeable lawyer and is able to clearly communicate all of the intricate in's... and out's of this complicated process. My wife and I felt very comfortable making the decisions we had to make during the process, primarily because we were able to understand all that was necessary to decide on the specific content of our documents. Since we established and finalized the original estate planning documents, we have met with Tom on an annual basis to review changes in the law and how they may affect our trust. Tom has prepared one ammendment to the original documents and contiues to be a trusted advisor to my wife and me. We highly recommend you consider allowing Tom to do your estate planning for you. You couldn't hire a better lawyer.

Hire him!

As administrator/trustee of my mother’s will/trust I looked for an excellent lawyer who charged a fixed fee. (It was strange to find myself as client rather than lawyer, particularly since I have taught estate planning as a law school professor for more years than I care count.) I hit the jackpot w...ith Tom. He provided wonderful service for a fair, fixed fee.

Excellent and communicative

Tom has done our trust twice (once was an update). He made excellent suggestions for our situation that we hadn't thought of. He listens well, communicates with us, and has been willing to answer the occasional question over the years without an actual appointment. He has also held our hands when we ...needed help retitling various items. In short, he's great and we highly recommend him.

I Recommend Tom Bouman!

Mr. Bouman was so helpful. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He answered questions I didn't know I needed to ask! All I had to do was express a thought or concern, and Mr. Bouman had several suggestions for me. I no longer need to worry about my will and health care directives, beca...use Mr. Bouman found a way to include everything I wanted in the documents. I felt completely at ease in his office, which by the way is easily accessible with ample parking (very important to me). I plan to continue to go to Mr. Bouman with legal issues, and will most certainly recommend him to anyone who needs a straight-shooting, gifted attorney.

Professional Setup of Family Trust

Tom was recommended to us by our CPA. He tailored a Trust plan for us based on our family's needs, following an interview session during which he addressed all of our questions/concerns and even led us to explore areas that we were unaware of and hadn't considered (for our situation). I found him to... be exrtremely knowledgeable in his field and up to date with changes in law. Tom was extremely professional in his dealings with us and I am extremely satisfied with the results of my dealings with him.
