This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Highly recommend

William Lange from Geiger Law helped me put together my first trust. He had my best interest in mind throughout the process and I felt very comfortable in trusting in his recommendations. It's a big step (but necessary!) to create a trust and the process was pretty seamless. He explained everything i...n everyday language. I'm very happy with his work and highly recommend to anyone considering creating a trust.
