Deward Houck

Excellent lawyer, fairly priced with an excellent understanding of estate planning. I got the results I needed within a relatively short amount of time. I would highly recommend Mr. Houck.

A Trust I can Trust

Deward helped my wife and I put together a complicated Family Trust involving a legacy ranch and other assets. He gave form and legal text to our collection of thoughts and wishes. The final product has turned out very good. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends to help them with their Wi...lls and Trusts. He is also very good at genealogy.

TLC and Excellents

Deward Houck and his wife were the 1st of many Estate Planning Attornys I contacted when my father wanted to write his Will? My dad and I were very impress with the personalized care and professionalism. The end product was much more than we expected for a very fair charge. We now consider Dewar...d Houck, Esq. To be our family Attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
