About Alexander
Biography
My name is Alex Biddle and I am the founder of Biddle Law, a law firm dedicated to estate planning, probate and trust law. Please browse my website to learn more about how your experience with me will be a simple and cost-effective process.
I am a thoughtful, hard-working attorney who was initially attracted to estate planning through love of family. My goal is to provide an unsurpassed level of customer satisfaction in order to foster a long-term relationship. The majority of my work is billed on a flat-fee basis—at very competitive rates—so you can proceed with certainty, knowing that you are getting a great deal. Other law firms bill exclusively by the hour, charging you hundreds of dollars simply for asking questions.
If we proceed on a flat-fee basis, my prices include as much time as you need to ask me questions so that you understand your estate plan. I will also take time with you to fund your trust—i.e., make sure that the trust owns your property. Without proper trust funding, your trust will not do what you intended it to. Many law firms gloss over this point, and when the time comes to funding your trust, you are on your own.
I understand that estate planning presents difficult issues for people to face, but the fact that you are reading this right now tells me that you understand the importance of estate planning. Estate planning is a necessary process that will protect the financial security of your family and loved ones by allowing you to decide what will happen with your property and health decisions.

I called Alex Biddle as a referral from my nephew since my family was looking for an attorney to review of my parents Living Trust.
