Posted by Linda | May 14, 2010 | Probate

Don't be deprived of your inheritance.

I was in a situation where my eldest sibling felt entitled as the estate trustee and got greedy. I live 3000 miles away and felt vunerable. Mr. Scott empowered me to take control over my own destiny/inheritance.

A Strong Advocate thoroughly versed in Estate Planning and Probate Issues

Charles has represented me in Probate matters for over 5 years. I have always been impressed by his clear and resourceful thinking, his command of the English language expressed in his petitions and estate plans, and his verbal nimbleness in responding to questions from the judge. He is excellent a...t finding the middle ground in a dispute. He is considerate, knows the law and is able to guide clients to a favorable solution. I highly recommend him.

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.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
