Tom Bouman updated our 1999 Family Trust to bring it up to 2008 and Arizona laws and standards. He was very organized and detailed as to our our options and costs in creating this document. His annual review makes my wife and I very comfortable in the assurance that our wishes wil be implemented du...e to this Trust.

I was referred to Mr Bouman by my financial advisor, to assist with planning and implementing an estate plan, to include: revokable trust, will, power of attorney, living will, and other documents required to ensure equitable resolution of my finances following my death. As a widow with no children..., it was imperative that all aspects of my estate be considered and addressed in the estate plan. Mr Bouman was very professional, courteous, understanding, and patient in thoroughly explaining the legal aspects of the various documents in terms I could understand. During the initial phase and follow-ups, he was always available to answer my questions and has kept my plan current and up-to-date regarding changes in Arizona laws and statutes. I have recommended him to numerous friends, who have taken advantage of his expertise and willingness to assist individuals in this most important area.

Tom Bouman provided us excellent and efficient service in developing our estate plan. Our plan had many different aspects to consider. Tom identified issues we had not thought about. He was very deliberate and knowledgeable, asking many questions and presenting us options for how to handle these i...ssues. His knowledge and expertise in estate planning law ensured the needs of our family were addressed. He took the time throughout the estate planning process to ensure we really understood the outcome of our decisions. The advice and counsel he provided us gave us the assurance we had addressed all necessary issues related to our situation. We had worked with other estate planning attorneys in the past and never felt that we really understood the contents of of the estate planning document. After our final review and signing of all pertinent documents, we left Tom's office, with our estate plan in hand, feeling really good about what we had just accomplished. We would highly recommend Tom for your estate planning needs.

Tom prepared a revocable trust for me in 2004. He then amended the trust in 2006 and prepared a second trust for my wife. His work was thorough, was completed quickly, and was presented to my wife and me in a professional manner. We have received annual letters from Tom and will be updating our ...trusts again in 2010.
