Mr.

We met with a number of attorneys when we first looked for a law firm to create our family trust. Willow Law Group was one we explored because it had been recommended to us by more than one friend. We ultimately went with Willow Law Group because the lead attorney, Willow McJilton, was thorough and e...xcellent in every way imaginable. Her knowledge of the field was unimpeachable. She was a thorough and patient teacher. I cannot stress how important this aspect was to our final decision. There was a lot we needed to learn about how trusts work and she was tireless and understanding as she walked us through the concepts. Many of which were completely foreign to us. And she did this while we were still potential clients. Which I think speaks to her passion about this particular area of the law. She was clear and transparent. Her pricing was fair. Maybe generous. Even after our trust was completed, she has continued to be a resource whenever we have questions. We could not be happier with her work or her quality of care. Her expertise and bedside manner has raised the bar for what we would expect from any lawyer we work with in the future.

Exceptional Estate Planning: Willow McJilton’s Unmatched Expertise and Care

A friend recommended Willow Law Group and Willow McJilton for our trust and will, and I couldn't be more grateful. My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Willow, and it's hard to balance caring with professionalism, especially in a field with such sensitive topics. Willow did just that and mo...re. From our initial consultation, Willow's expertise and warmth were immediately evident. She was truly amazing--super responsive, consistently followed up, and even sent reminders to ensure we stayed on track. The level of care was unparalleled. She made what could have been a daunting process feel manageable and even comforting. Willow's ability to explain complex legal concepts in a way that was easy to understand made us feel confident and secure in our decisions. She guided us through every step, ensuring we were informed and comfortable with our choices. Her insights into the personal aspects of estate planning, especially end-of-life decisions, were invaluable. She handled these delicate matters with the utmost sensitivity, grace, and care. A big thanks to Willow and her team for their exceptional service. We highly recommend Willow for anyone needing estate planning assistance. We're so glad we chose Willow to guide us through this important process.

SO DETAILED AND KIND!

My husband and I used Willow McJilton for Estate Planning. We were referred to her by another friend who also used her services. We could NOT be more pleased. We did the Estate Planning back at the end of 2020 during the Covid craziness and I'm just now getting to this review because she has been ...giving me such helpful advice while I work through my Dad's recent passing. Her knowledge of the law, her ability to explain things in a way that I am able to understand, her patience and kindness...it's been SO appreciated. And she always responds so quickly, I'm just incredibly grateful and wanted to put the word out. Thank you, Willow!
