Christopher John Albence

After having several nightmare experiences with greedy dishonest trust attorneys who prey on clients who are new to the unscrupulous practices of some lawyers. I was relieved when I found Attorney Christopher Albence to draft a separate property trust for me. He paid attention to details, listened ...carefully to my specific trust requests and gave me understandable legal guidance. He also reviewed a trust my husband and I have together and found a very important page missing, voiding our family trust. Basically you hire Mr. Albence to do a job and he gets the job done and his fees are reasonable.

We were referred to Chris to help get all the necessary papers in order for our aging mother. We were very confused as to what we needed but he helped us get her will, power of attorney, and health care proxy in place. What was so great was that our mother ended up needing last minute surgery so unde...r a time crunch Chris got all her documents finished while under time pressure.

I have used Chris and his associates to provide estate planning services to my clients and friends, and I have grown to greatly trust and depend on his skills and judgment. Chris listens carefully to understand his clients' needs and then puts together plans that make sense, even in complex situatio...ns. He is also a board certified specialist in estate planning, which is important to me.

Chris is very knowledgeable with the applicable laws as was evident when he set up our trust and related estate planning documents. He explained everything clearly in non-legal language, offered suggestions and pointed out issues that we hadn't considered, and gave practical advice. He was quick to... respond to questions, yet patient when we took a little longer than expected to get back to him. I've recommended him to several friends and all have thanked me. His follow up after my wife passed away has been first-rate and truly sympathetic. Very reasonable fees and first rate service.
