Peace of Mind with our Estate Plan and Trust

Mr. Printz handled our Estate Plan and Trust a few years ago. He was very patient with our questions and concerns and we found his rates very reasonable. We ended the experience with the peace of mind that if something unforseen happens to us, we know that all the "t's" have been crossed and the "i's..." have been dotted with regard to our estate.

Thank you, John. I appreciate your kind words!

Warm, Caring, Knowledgeable

I consulted Dan on the closing of my business. The decision was painful, and the process was tedious. Dan was thoughtful and professional throughout and gave me peace of mind about the paperwork.

I regularly refer clients to him and they always come away happy, having everything explained and knowing their case is in good hands. His down-to-earth explanations of complex situations probably stem from his teaching at a local law school. If you are considering having work done in any of these fields, look no further."

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.
