Estate Planning

My financial planner recommended Jennifer Daniel for estate planning after another local attorney cashed my check and abandoned the process. She has completely exceeded my expectations. Jennifer is bright, articulate, organized, and professional. She spent a considerable amount of time with me in ord...er to individualize the package (will, trust, power of attorney, etc.). This wasn't just a fill-in-the-blank process on a generic template. She took the time to get to know me before she ever generated the documents. All of my concerns were addressed and she helped me understand potential issues to which I had not given adequate - if any - consideration. No one wants to talk about estate planning, but I left our final signing meeting feeling relieved. The process is complete and there should be no questions as to my wishes and intentions. Jennifer has my highest recommendation.

Living Trust Administration Guidance

Ms. Daniel reviewed my wife's parents' living trust and provided specific guidance on how to administer it with the death of my wife's mother and the incapacitation of her father. Very helpful.

Took great care of my Mom

Jenifer worked with my mom after an illness to set up her trust and directives. While my mom knew these things needed to be taken care of, she was really uncomfortable going through the process. Jennifer was incredible with her, taking some much time and care to help my mom understand each and every ...aspect of the decisions she was making. It's always a relief when someone takes care of a loved one the same way you would.

JENNIFER DANIEL IS A CREDIT TO HER PROFESSION!

I hired Jennifer Daniel to prepare my Estate Plan. I had experienced profound grief after the death of my first wife of thirty years, followed by another marriage three years later, while I was still struggling with various stages of grief. Before I got married again, six years later, I contacted ...Jennifer Daniel. She provided clarity to my legal circumstances, explained the tax implications of my actions, identified my risks and then, prepared my Estate Plan, including a properly funded Trust, Pour Over Will and Powers of Attorney. The best part, is that she took a very delicate subject and counseled me; and then explained it to my wife and I together, as a couple so that my we could fully appreciate the practical, clinical and essential reasons for signing the documents for our mutual protection, emotional comfort and financial preservation. She also gave us both comfort in explaining that there will NEVER be any reason for our children to fight over our estate after we are gone because our estate plan was completely comprehensive. She took the mystery and the angst out a complicated subject and has continued to provide updates on changes in the law; she has reviewed new personal and financial information as changes happen in our lives and she has continued to help both my wife and me by providing any necessary Amendments or Restatements, so that we never have to worry about the unknown. She is always available for consultation and never makes me or my wife feel uncomfortable about asking questions. I am always grateful for her counsel and her instructions are always easy to follow. The best part, is that my Estate Plan is a completely personal, customized plan and she completely administered the funding from our resources. She left nothing to the imagination. Every detail was done by her according to our needs and expectations. She did not just add our names to a bunch of pre drafted documents and print them out. She told us up-front what to expect, what she would do, what it would cost and the reasons why it would provide maximum protection and security. She made sure my wife and I understood everything with no reservations, fears, doubts, fluff, gray areas or misunderstandings to keep us up at night. I have referred her to several personal friends and they had the same result - no pretenses. She is a brilliant, honest, professional and a credit to her industry. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Trustworthy and great customer service

Jennifer and her team have been amazing to my family and I on all of the trust and estate projects we've brought to them. I truly appreciate how she takes the time to listen, research, and go above and beyond for her clients. My husband and I feel very lucky to have such a knowledgeable lawyer as we ...set up a new trust and strategize for our future. I cannot recommend Jennifer enough if you're looking for a lawyer.
