Finding a Great Solution

In trying to set up my family trust, I had problems of how I would leave the same amount of money for each of my children--I have five. Because some of my children are doing well financially, there was one child that would not be able to handle a large sum of money all at once. After talking, and a...t the end of our meeting, Mr. Drobny came up with a great solution to my problem which never occurred to me. I feel like something heavy has been lifted off my shoulders. I found him to be very easy to talk to, and recommend him highly.

Estate Planning

Mark was not only made it very easy to update our wills and trust but he seemed to have a very good feel as to what the federal government would probably do with the laws going forward. We have used Mark as our estate planing for over 20 years and he has always been very responsive to our needs and s...chedule.

Excellent Estate Planning Services

Mr. Drobny and his staff are knowledgeable, efficient, and always responsive. He met with us to gather our information, then put together a comprehensive estate planning package within a few days. He answered all of our questions, and always showed us courtesy, respect, and good humor. I was impresse...d with his services, and I highly recommend him.

Family Trust Planning

Some members of our church who knew and had worked with him in the past asked our Board of Elders to invite Mark Drobny to make a presentation to interested people about the need to have a Family Trust in their Estate Planning. I went to the first meeting Mark hosted, and was very impressed with the... information he shared with the audience. I left with every intention of following up with Mark in a free one-on-one meeting with him, but never did. Several months later, because of the great response he received from the attendees, and because many more requests for him to make another presentation were received, Mark came back to our church and shared more information. I attended this meeting , also, and did follow up by making an appointment to meet with him. I'm glad I did. I am extremely impressed with his professionalism, knowledge, and friendly demeanor. He makes extremely complicated information very understandable to the layman. He did a very thorough and professional job setting up my Family Trust, end-of-life documents, etc. I would HIGHLY recommend Mark and his firm.
