Well Versed in Family Trusts

After some major medical issues, I thought it would be important to complete a family trust. Ryan was well recommended by a mutual acquaintance. I was not aware of what was involved in the preparation of a trust, but Ryan explained it, thoroughly and in detail, but without all the confusing legal nua...nces. I was given a draft to review before finalizing everything, so I was comfortable with the contents. Once it was fully completely, it was prepared in a well organized, tabbed and labeled binder. Ryan delivered it to our home, took his time explaining what other items we should include, how to maintain records, and answered other questions. We are very happy with his services and have recommended him to other family members as well.

Excellent Attorney

Ryan did an amazing job preparing our Trust documents. We had a trust done previously by another attorney and Ryan did a great job of explaining everything to us in a way the previous attorney never did. When my wife passed away, Ryan was extremely helpful with answering all my questions and never c...harged me a fee. He genuinely cares about his clients and I would recommend him to anyone who needs a Trust attorney.

Don't use this attorney

This man is extremely unprofessional. He is completely untrustworthy and did poor work on my estate plan. He only cares about getting your check and is very disrespectful. Do not give this man your business. Find another attorney.

Replied last July 13, 2016

I do not believe this is from a client but rather a disgruntled beneficiary of a Trust I created for his parents and he is upset he did not receive more from his parent's estate and was not named in charge. Furthermore, he is upset I told him I could not speak to him as he was not named as a successor Trustee of the Trust because I am bound by attorney/client privilege even after a client passes away. He repeatedly called my office trying to speak to me even after I wrote him a letter telling him I could not speak to him. If I am incorrect and this is from an actual client, I would be more than happy to speak to this client and discuss refunding them their money if they feel I did poor work.

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.
