Brian J. Sheppard

A few years ago, my sister and I found our selves in a most difficult circumstance that centered around a legal issue that my father, who was dying in the hospital, had failed to resolve. Suffice to say, we were emotionally wrought and desperate for help. I had reached out to a few other lawyers, mos...t of whom never bothered to return my call and if they did, were more interested in their up-front fees, than offering helpful counsel. Fortunately, we found Brian and he immediately understood the gravity of the situation and was able to map out a plan of action. His calm demeanor, and solid knowledge of the law, kept an already difficult situation from becoming worse. Talk about going the extra mile, he even came to the hospital to meet my father – not a place most lawyers go -- and make sure that the matter was resolved properly. After our father passed, Brian was instrumental in taking care of some of difficult and confusing paperwork including title-transfers and other filings that we had no idea were legally required. He also counseled us on the importance of having a will, or a trust, the value of advance health-care-directives, and other important pre-need paperwork. Brian Sheppard is first and foremost a man of integrity and principle, well-versed in the nuances of the law, and fundamentally a man with the courage to do what is right. Over the years, I have had occasion to call him with a simple a question and he has gentlemanly and generously resolved the matter without an outrageous bill. Our only regret is that we weren’t able to avail ourselves of Brian’s services earlier.

Brian Sheppard redid our wills and our living trust. We found Mr. Sheppard to be very honest,very ethical,very knowledgeable .Mr. Sheppard made it easy for laymen to understand what was being done. His fees were fair. We highly recommend Mr. Sheppard and we will use his services again,when the situa...tion presents itself.
