Excellent estate planning attorney!

Stacy has been our estate planning attorney for years. We have been very satisfied with her technical legal knowledge as well as her practical know-how that comes with her many years of experience. We trust her so much that we refer friends, clients and family to her, including my own parents, fo...r their estate planning needs. Choose Stacy DenHerder for your estate planning, probate and trust needs. You won't find anyone better!

Living Trust

My husband and I were represented by Stacey DenHerder in 1993 and she did the Trust. My husband died in 2006 and the Trust is very confusing and Stacey DenHerder said to me that she didn't want to represent the Trust. I have consulted several other attorneys and they also are very confused by the ...wording of the Trust. Because Stacey DenHerder wrote up the Trust . I would think that she would try to make it right. I know that she got her degree in 1992 and was young and inexperienced but to not represent me because she goofed I find very difficult to understand. Stacey herself told me she would not take the time to explain the Trust to me. I was married to my husband and the Trust is in his name not ours. I was in love and a very trusting newlywed. I have spent thousands of dollars trying to figure out what the Trust langage means and I am still lost and want to move on in my life and sell my home but it appears from my reading it that I will have to divide the proceeds of the sale with his children and that will not leave me enough to purchase a home. Other attorneys have no answer for me after reading the Trust and the Ammendment and charging me $200 plus an hour with no resolution accept that I would probably have to go to court to get this resolved by a judge. When I go to an attorney to see how this is done they say they can't help me.

I am truly sorry that this client is unhappy with the outcome of her estate plan; we assisted her and her husband not only with extensive planning, but we assisted her after her husband's death. Blended family situations are often wrought with emotion. Our goal is to help families through this difficult process both during life, and at death. Once they reach an agreement in their estate plan, it cannot be "undone" after the death of one of them. Such was the case here. We are so sorry for her loss, her frustration, and her pain. But we offered all the assistance the law would allow, just not the outcome she desired. I encourage you to read reviews of our firm, and me, specifically, on other review sites. In 22 years, this is my only negative review, balanced against hundreds of positive reviews. Our heart, goal, education, and true purpose is to assist others and provide peace of mind.
