Posted by Debra | December 05, 2014 | Trusts

Kristin updated my trust and did a fabulous job. I am very pleased with her work & highly recommend.

I went to the Burton Law Firm to have my trust updated and am very grateful that I met Kristin who was assigned to perform this task. During the initial consultation I was very impressed with her sincerity, knowledge, consideration, patience, and thoroughness. She listened and had a lot of good id...eas as we covered different scenarios of what I wanted written and potential legal outcomes. I learned a great deal because she answered questions in simple terms, gave examples, and offered good advice. She has knowledge and experience with Nevada and California laws concerning trusts, so anticipated and thought of things that I would not have known to ask about -- therefore additional items of benefit to me were added to my trust. After the initial consultation I corresponded with Kristin by email. She and her staff were prompt and professional to gather information and answer questions to keep me informed. Although I had a good idea of the changes I wanted to make to my trust, I definitely learned that there was a lot more to it than I had originally thought. Kristin took the time and put in the work to give me a revised trust that is exactly tailored my needs and life circumstances. At the signing Kristin gave a thorough explanation of all the sections and pages in my trust, her expertise and extensive knowledge of her craft evident as she answered all of my questions. The trust she prepared is very well organized in a binder with sections divided by tabs. I had my trustee with me at the initial consultation and the signing and she was so impressed with Kristen (from the get go) that she and her husband plan to have Kristin update their trust too. I am very pleased with the outcome of having my trust updated and highly recommend Kristin to anyone who needs the services of an EXCELLENT attorney. The Burton Law Firm is very fortunate to have her on their team!

Excellent advisor and attorney!

Mrs. Kaminski was very helpful, efficient, and knowledgeable. I would refer her services anytime! She helped me with my husbands and my will when he was very ill.
