Review Kurt Duane Elkins

Trust and Real estate advice!

I'd highly recommend Kurt! I have used him a couple of times as a real estate broker and for my personal trust most recently. His prices are extremely fair and he actually picks up the phone himself.

I spoke with Kurt about my LLC formation questions, what I do and don't need to spend money on, and how to do wholesaling properly, the right way. He is an outstanding attorney and absolutely charming and helpful. The only lawyer who knew what the h*ll he was talking about, and knew more, not less, than I. He was a big relief after a week of searching for answers.

I needed professional assistance in a hurry and Kurt was on the job the same day. He is extremely knowledgeable and was able to guide me in the right direction. I'm a Family Law attorney and a real estate broker, but even so, I needed someone who could advise me with expert knowledge in a high asset transaction. Kurt was ready with answers. I highly recommend him!

Kurt is truly the best of the best. We found him through AVVO and reached out to him via email. He responded right away, had a couple of calls and a face to face meeting within a week. He gave us great advice and continues to answer our questions in a sincere and honest manner.

Mr. Elkins was very courteous and helpful, he spent time on the phone with me regarding my issues concerning a Real Estate problem. Even tho he was not able to take my case because of regional laws regarding where I was located, he was still very helpful to me and advise me on what a fair price range to pay for what I need to have done. I would recommend this attorney to anyone who needs one regarding RE issues.
