Wendell L Belknap

I was referred to Wendell when it was discovered that a portion of my late husband's estate required opening a probate case. I could not be more pleased with the experience I received working with Wendell and his staff. The details of navigating a probate case were fully explained from the begi...nning to the end of the case and Wendell was always supportive and immediately responsive to my questions. He kept me informed concerning case progress and was extremely expeditious completing my case in approximately five months. Wendell and his team are knowledgeable, understanding, and thoroughly enjoyable to work with. I intend to hire them to draw up my Will and would utilize their expertise again if necessary.

Mr. Wendell Belknap has been handling legal documents such as Last Will and Testament for my wife and me for many years. When my wife passed away last year, I asked Wendell for help with settling an IRA account that my wife had forgotten to link to a beneficiary. He was immediately helpful, explainin...g the various options available. After we selected probate as most appropriate, he carefully explained all aspects of the process, guiding me through how to get the personal representative class, summarizing assets, and formal notification (listing in local papers) for creditors, which he took care of. He referred me to another attorney who specialized in estates to help with determining the value of the estate. Additionally, Wendell personally handled communications with the IRA administrators regarding the probated estate so that appropriate paperwork would be completed. Wendell was always available for my questions and was clearly concerned that the process should be as easy and painless as possible. While probate can take a long time, and this one did, I was never concerned with the process knowing that Wendell was watching it every step of the way. I would highly recommend Wendell as your first contact lawyer.

Wendell is an excellent choice for my uncontested divorce. From start to finish it was under 2 weeks! He was not only kind and caring but also knowledgeable and thorough. His secretary is also caring and they make a great team. I highly recommend Wendell for your Attorney! If ever I am in need ...I will be calling on him again.

My dad hired him years ago for his will and was happy. I went to him for Power of Attorney,Personal Representative, and the Probate nightmare and will be going back to do my will soon. Very easy to work with and keeps you up to date. He helped me understand my Personal Representative responsibilit...ies and the Probate process. Lori who is the in office Notary Public is great as well. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a lawyer in his area of practice.

Wendell was very helpful in getting me through 2 complicated probates which had to run at the same time. He and his staff were very thoughtful and knowledgeable and accomplished all in a shorter time than we expected. I was 200 miles away and we were able to do most items by phone, text and fax, T...his was a real blessing as this reduced my trips to Oregon City saving time, money and stress. I highly recommend his practice
