Edward William Goldkuhl

My grandmother, who passed away 10 years, found Ed by referral. He did her trust. When she passed, my mother was sued by her sister who wanted grandma's property (farms). Ed defended the trust successfully, not only winning the case but making sure my mom was ok during the entire process. Ed then did... my mother's trust, and when she passed on, Ed made sure her wishes were implemented. Now all my siblings and I (4 in all) rely on Ed as our family lawyer. He is really part of the family; his advice kept our ancestral farming business in tact for three generations, while many families lost their farms when they had to sell to pay taxes. Ed's work will make my children able to farm the land their greatgrandparents farmed. I speak for my family when I say this lawyer is someone we trust. He came to the funeral of both my grandmother and mother. He was introduced by father McDaniel as a cherished family friend; and that is what he has become. Grandma's prior lawyer was cold and impersonal; Ed is the opposite. Genuine and casual; easy to talk to. I know he is there for my family; even when we needed a divorce lawyer, Ed found us one and called my cousin even week or so just to see if she need to talk about the case or whatever. All at no charge. Thanks Ed for all you have done for our family.

My husband and I are clients of Ed. We went to him to have a living trust done so that our kids would not have to go through probate. My husband is an attorney, but he does not do estate planning, thus we hired Ed. My husband was impressed with his knowledge of wills and trusts. I was happy that Ed w...as able to make me understand the process and took the time and cared enough to make sure my thoughts and concerns were addressed. My husband reviewed the documents and legal stuff and said it all looked great. That made him happy. I cared more about making sure the attorney understood me, my family and our needs, and Ed took the time and made sure the documents took care of our needs. I felt really comfortable with Ed; he is young (40, but does not look it), funny and genuine. I never thought I would laugh until me belly hurt at a lawyer's office! Ed really helped my plan for my kids when my husband and I are gone; something that really is important to me. And I trust him to be able to be there for my kids after we are gone to help them make our wishes come true. While the living trust was not cheap, it bought me peace of mind. I would recommend Ed to families and/or women especially, because I felt he really listened to me, cared about me and my feelings and always made me feel like my questions were important.
