Priced Right with Expert Help

Patricia A Clements helped my wife and I set up our will and our entire estate in a trust account. She added numerous very important legal principles that are very helpful which we would never have thought of if we had completed our will by ourselves over the internet. All the her legal expertise w...ill save us time, money and legal headaches from potential future problems that we or our children will not have to be entangled with in the future. Patricia Clements price and her legal knowledge was so helpful we have referred many of our friends to her. All of our friends came back andtold us that they were so glad we referred Patricia Clements to them. They also said the same thing, "Patricia saved them from several potential headaches due to her legal expertise.

Excellent work, timely and fairly priced

Patricia was hired to handle the estate and probate portion of a wrongful death case I was handling. Her work was excellent, it was timely and it was fairly priced. She's exceptionally knowledgeable, has finely tuned people skills and a sincere compassion for her clients that instantly puts them at e...ase. If you're looking for an attorney for estate planning, probate, wills or trusts, look no further.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
