Oz Is amazing

He helped explain an incredibly smart plan that helped my kids to get what they deserve.

Excellent estate planning

I am the accountant for a high wealth family that uses "Oz" for their estate planning. Oz has done a great job of explaining the plan, and maintaining all documents and filings current. The plan has some very innovative features that fit the family dynamics perfectly.
