A lawyer that cared about my situation

I have worked with Lori several times over the last few years. Out of the many lawyers I have spoken with, she ranks as one of the best. Instead of just talking and talking like most lawyers, she actually answered my questions in a way that I could understand. I got the feeling that she actually ...cared about my issues and wanted to make sure that the situation would work out well.

She's kind and super smart!!!

I met Lori about one year ago during a business networking meeting. My first impressions were that she was very kind with a welcoming smile that happen to know a lot about estate law. As we got to know each other, I realized I had a perfect referral for her. My friend had unfortunately been diagnosed... with stage four breast cancer, she needed to get her estate in order before she was no longer able to take care of herself. I told Lori about her, she reached out immediately and patiently waited until my friend contacted her, three months later. Lori made several trips out to my friend's home to make sure all was in order. She was a tremendous help during a very fragile time in my friend's life. I highly recommend Lori not only for her smarts and skills but also for her kindness.

My one stop shop for estate planning

I met Lori through a friend from college who was working with her at the time, and since I knew he was a hard and thorough student I felt very comfortable bringing my estate planning questions to his classmate. For one flat fee, she worked with me tirelessly to shape my estate plan exactly as I need...ed it. The best part? The flat fee included ongoing consultations, no nickel-and-diming for questions and modifications. I tell all my family and friends about "my attorney," and I feel that Lori Withrow is a conscientious and 'holistic' attorney that will continue to handle my changing needs in the years to come. I recommend Lori to everyone I talk to about legal stuff, and I couldn't be happier with the services I have received. It has been totally worth it for the peace of mind and all the great research she's done for me. I feel knowledgeable!

Lori Jo Withr(w)ow

I have known Lori for over ten years. While working on media projects together in college, she always kept a clear and focused mind when approaching our work. She even relished challenges and kept a cool head in the face of technical debacles and unexpected limitations. When I needed representation a...nd contracts for my first major project, it was a no-brainer to hire Lori Withrow. As a first time producer my expectations were exceeded. Withrow is a very clear communicator which makes her a superstar when it comes to contract negotiation. She is knowledgeable about the entertainment industry and quick to research any oddities that come up. I never have trouble getting a hold of her. Her legal services has become a stone in the foundation of my film making career. With Lori in my corner, I feel strong and able to focus on the work of producing motion pictures. Thank you Lori!!!

I highly recommend Lori!

I had the pleasure of working with Lori Withrow. I was in a bind and needed a last minute talent contract written up over the weekend. She not only was professional and thorough she also made herself available on the weekend and followed up several times to make sure everything was taken care of. I w...ould highly recommend Lori!
