Perfection s in the Details

Justin was highly recommended to me by another lawyer whom I trust. Immediately his professionalism, attention to detail, and honesty put my mind at ease. His is a d=family owned business with decades upon decades of experience in the field of Trusts and Probate and Estate Planning. He guided me thro...ugh the process, was up front about costs, and when it came time to review the final documents caught things that I had missed, having gone over everything with fine toothed comb. I highly recommend using Justin Gordon for all of your Estate Planning, Probate or Living Trust needs.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
