Mr Bouman prepared my Estate Trust and I was more than pleased with the finished product. Every situation that might arise was covered and I feel totally comfortable my estate will be carried out per my wishes. The trust was prepared in a very timely manner and the fees were very reasonable. I have... recommended Mr Bouman to my friends and they have been pleased as well with his services.

Being old(er) and having been the victim several times of dishonesty when seeking any kind of professional help; I am very afraid/hesitant of many business professionals. Tom was recommended to me by a dear friend that I trust. After contacting him to make changes on a trust prepared for me shortly... after the death of my husband; I learned almost immediately that he was a warm, personable, and understanding gentleman with a lot of knowledge, professionalism, and expertise in his field. I was also to learn very quickly that Tom is not only excellent in what he does, but his compassion and honesty outweigh his desire to be concerned about fees. Tom initially was going to "look at & check out & possibly make a change or two" to a trust that I had already had prepared by someone local to me. When he read the trust, he called me and was very open with his assessment of what he was looking at. It was obvious that my greatest fear of getting someone to do a job properly had been fulfilled by the individual who did that initial trust. Tom quoted me a price to "look over" my trust and when he actually saw it, he knew that if I died, my children would be facing a nightmare with what had. Tom told me that he would totally rewrite my trust the way that I wanted it, one that would hold up in the courts, and that he would be there to back it all up when the time came to put the trust into action. With this information, he also informed me that since he had already quoted me a price for the initial review and minor changes to my trust, he would not charge me anything extra to do the entire document over. I had recently become a widow and my income was/is definitely not exciting as I live on SS. Tom had no way of knowing what my financial status was when he offered to do this for me at the initial quoted price. His compassion having seen what had happened to me with the first trust and his desire to help me exceeded his desire to claim a greater fee. It's been over a year now since Tom put my trust together and he has contacted me as a routine follow-up to be sure that everything is current. I, in fact, do have a change to be made that has come up over this past year, and I am absolutely delighted to know that Tom is there to take care of whatever it is that I need. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney in his field as you will not find a more down-to-earth, kind, honest, professional, and experienced person to do the job. I live approximately 2-1/2 hours from his office and I would willing make that drive if and when necessary.

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.

My brother passed away in Tucson in Spring '09. I served as his personal representative for the estate from California. From my first meeting with Mr. Bouman, I felt he was an extraordinary attorney-- in his understanding of the issues of the estate, his concern and personal interest, his competence ...and his prompt attention to every detail. His directions and instructions to me were flawless. He located a real estate broker for some property owned by the estate; the house was sold within 3 hours of listing, in the worst market in history. His fees were completely reasonable. He is highly skilled at wealth building and estate planning. I give him my highest recommendation.
