Great Gun Trust Lawyer

Tom is very thorough and informed. He is reasonably priced and I feel he really has the client's best interest in mind. He is the only lawyer I could find in southern Arizona that would set up a gun trust for me. It is definitely worth the money to have a lawyer set up a gun trust for you instead of ...trying to do it on your own! I would utilize his services again and would highly recommend him.

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.

Helpful, knowledgeable, efficient

I was an out-of-state executor for an AZ estate, but the distance didn't get in the way. Tom's website was extremely helpful; communicating by email was fast and convenient; and his fee was very reasonable.

Estate Planning with Thomas Bouman

I was referred to Mr. Bouman by my trust officer at Wells Fargo after I'd consulted a local attorney and been less than impressed. My first contact with Mr.Bouman was by email. In his prompt reply he summarized his estate planning process, including the range of fees he charges. He later sent me... a very complete bound brochure laying out in more detail the steps he uses in designing and estate plan. On my initial appointment, I found Mr. Bouman both congenial and witty. That put me at ease. (I am a retired lawyer and am pretty familiar with the sort of person who can make a client feel comfortable.) We went over my personal information in detail, including my how I wanted my estate to be distributed. During this interview, Mr. Bouman orally laid out my estate plan in general and promised he would deliver a complete description of my estate plan within two weeks, which he did. At my second meeting, Mr. Bouman presented me with a draft of the provisions of my estate plan, including a pour-over will, powers of attorney and other ancillary documents. To my eye, these had been thoughtfully and knowledgably drafted. We agreed to certain revisions, and these were made on the spot. Thus I was able to sign off on my estate plan with only two meetings. Mr. Bouman is a knowledgable estate planner. He informs the client of many considerations that wouldn't have occurred to the client. This is reassuring. I would unreservedly recommend his services to anyone seeking competent, thorough, and reasonably priced estate planning.

Customer Satisfaction - Thomas J. Bouman

I have had a rewarding experience with Mr. Bouman. I was referred by a friend and upon initial contact with his firm the responsiveness was handled in timely manner. All of my issues were handled promptly and the overall value was worth the time spent utilizing his services. I give him high praise an...d has referred him to many of my friends.
