Efficient, Professional and Extremely Helpful

Stefan helped me and my wife with our estate plan and made the entire process very straightforward for us. Any questions we had he answered clearly and gave us all the information we needed to make informed decisions.

We are so glad we invested in this!

My husband and I recently finished our estate plan with Stefan, and we are so happy we made the investment! Working with Stefan was a great experience. He explained things to us in a way that was easy to understand, worked efficiently to get our estate plan drafted, patiently accommodated our work sc...hedules, and gave us an end product that we feel very secure with. Stefan is incredibly competent, responsive, knowledgeable, and honest; my husband and I are grateful for his integrity, intelligence, and kindness. During this process, we’ve realized that Stefan and his colleagues at Govaerts Manache have built a great reputation in the Portland area and we understand why. We not only invested in an estate plan that we are confident will serve us and our family well upon our passing, we also built a trusting relationship with someone we will enjoy coming back to over the years as we evolve and update our plan to best serve our needs. We highly recommend Stefan for anyone looking to set up a will or trust!

A thoughtful and expert advisor for contingency planning

We sought out Stefan for the drafting of wills and related estate planning documents for our family. From the get-go, Stefan explained everything to us in clear and straightforward terms. Our introductory meeting struck a nice balance between personal and professional as we delved into sensitive subj...ects such as family, financials, emergency decision-making, etc. Stefan made a point of getting to know us, while steering an efficient and educational process for us. Based on our recent experience we'll go back to Stefan for any future legal guidance. And we would trust any of his referrals to legal experts in other disciplines!

Made Estate planning Easy and Comfortable

I needed my estate plan to be in place before going out of country for vacation. I had 3 weeks and Stefan made it happen. His support team helped me prepare for my consultation so we could hit the ground running. They were clear about what I needed to do and super supportive throughout the process.... Stefan listens to you and understands the considerations in the estate-planning process. He is very well versed in the laws and processes. He is patient and answered every question I had until I was content. I left my last appointment feeling relieved, confident, and happy - not what I expected after this sort of thing. I will go to this firm for any future legal needs and will continue to refer friends to Stefan. You will be happy you chose him.

Stefan Wolf

I hired Stefan to assist me with estate planning as well as setting up an LLC for my new business. He was excellent to work with and made what could be a very complex process easy and painless. He handled everything very efficiently and with great professionalism.

  • 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.
