Great Lawyer!

Beate assisted my family with both my father's estate after he died and with our own estate planning. She guided us through the process of creating our wills and other necessary estate documents to protect our family. She was incredibly helpful, insightful, and kind. Beate helped me make some importa...nt decisions for my family and put my mind at ease. I would definitely hire her again and I highly recommend her.

Navigated my application through thick bureaucracy

Ms. Weiss-Krull successfully navigated my German passport application through a somewhat crazy process. I would never have been able to jump some of the hurdles put in my way without her guidance.

Estate work made easier

Beate helped my friend make his last will and testament, and when he died Beate helped me carry out my duties as administrator. Without her help, it would have been a harder job. She was easy to talk with and kept me informed of the process and progress. Even when she went on vacation she was availab...le via email.

Top notch lawyer

Beate B Weiss-Krull was very easy and pleasant to work with. She solved the legal problem I was having in regards to my citizenship and was able to obtain documents necessary for proof of my legal status in the United States. Her fees are reasonable and she did an excellent job for me. Thank you Beat...e !!

Knowledgeable, kind, flexible with scheduling, invites questions, and made us feel at ease during every step

I would recommended Beate, and I have. She was amazing from the start - making us feel comfortable during what could have been an uncomfortable conversation (estate planning). She has an amazing knowledge of every little thing that we needed to plan out, and always invited any and all questions - n...o matter how big or small. She was flexible with scheduling, and was happpy to come to our house on more than one occassion (we have two small children), because that was easier for us. It was a wonderful experience to work with her!

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.
