Trust Issues

I was referred to Jared A Roark from a friend. I was in dire need of an estate planning attorney to help me with the sale of my mother's house, which was documentation in her trust but the correct paperwork was never filed to transfer the deed into the trust. The day I called Mr. Roark, he was on i...t and told me exactly what needed to be done and what he needed from me. We were able to file the petition to transfer the deed to my mom's house to my name as the Trustee, per the trust's original instructions.

Thoughtful, sincere, and comprehensive estate planning.

When our son was born my wife and I knew we needed to have an estate plan in place. Jared provided expert counsel to help us identify the important decision points and offered crucial guidance to make the difficult conversations much easier to get through. The subject matter is tough, but Jared provi...ded a structured approach that ensured all of our bases were covered. He helped us through the process quickly to assemble a comprehensive plan that will be adaptable as our family grows and needs evolve over time. His personal attention and sincere concern for our needs was evident every step of the way. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who needs planning assistance in the future, whether putting a plan together for the first time, or auditing and updating an existing plan.

Great Attorney

My husband and i used Jared for our Estate planning and we were very pleased. Jared is knowledgeable and was able to provide us with all the answers we needed. We had an Estate plan within weeks of meeting with Jared.

Great Estate Planning Attorney!

I was referred to Jared by a friend and could not be happier with the services he provided. My wife and I are expecting our first child later this year and we had been told the importance of putting an estate plan together. Jared explained the entire process to us in simple terms and made us feel c...omfortable while putting our estate plan together. I would recommend Jared to anybody looking to create an estate plan or to have their current plan reviewed and updated. A+

Estate Planning Services

Jared did a remarkable job collating the required documentation to get my trust/will developed prior to my deployment in support of an armed service mobilization. His efforts to develop a customized estate plan were exactly what I needed to confidently deploy for 13 months. He has a great demeanor, a... talent for clarifying any technical/legal verbiage, and proved to be an invaluable asset for me as a service member.
