Estate Plannining

I hired Daniel to assist my grandmother with her estate planning needs. He was very thorough, knowledgeable and easy to work with. After drafting all of the estate documents, he met with my grandmother and went over the documents with her to ensure she had peace of mind and was okay with everything. The extra time, attention, and detail he dedicated to assisting my grandmother is greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend him to anyone else in need of an estate attorney.

Surpassed Expectations

Dan was there every step of the way. I must admit that I was extremely impressed with his professionalism at every step. Communication was prompt and thorough and there was never any doubt as to whether or not he knew exactly what he was talking about. I highly recommend him and will most likely look to him in the future.

The BEST!

I could not have asked for a better attorney. Mr. Chudleigh's support, professionalism and determination got me through a year of litigation. Every step along the way, he was always very quick to respond, made himself available during times that most would consider after hours and always patient in explaining the status and details/developments of my case. Everything is settled now and I could not thank him enough and I will always refer my friends and family to him.

Superb service, would recommend!

Daniel has been a great every since I've gotten in contact with him. He helped me get many of my legal problems from my divorce in line quickly and thoroughly. He is always on top of things, and you can always expect to be treated like you are his only client. He's helped before, and you feel as though you are working with a friend not someone you have hired. Handles things in a very professional matter nonetheless! Would highly recommend to anyone and everyone!
