Benjamin L Rasche

I learned of Ben's services through a Multnomah County Library workshop related to the book titled "A Will Is Not Enough in Oregon" by Richard Schneider. I found the workshop and Richard's book very informative and helpful. Ben recently completed the set up of my revocable living trust. During the... free consultation and the main information gathering sessions, Ben answered my many questions with his knowledgeable and precise answers in a professional manner. He explained the process to meet my needs and clearly stated the simple one-time service fee covers all future trust updates. At the signing session, his assistant (Laura) has already lined up all documents prior to my arrival. Ben methodically walked me through the documents and pointed out action items for me to follow up. I went home feeling confident with this task item checked off on my must-do list. This is a solid 5-star rating service! Ben did mostly stick to business through out the process and not much chitchatting, very efficient. It would have been a 5+ star rating with additional brief soft anecdotal conversation. Due to the current COVID social distancing limitations, the process was conducted via video meetings and followed with an in-person signing session. His office has done a great job in setting up a specially prepped section of the office for the in-person signing session. Ben and his staff are also very responsive through out the process; for example, promptly rescheduling the signing session that was impacted by the February snow/ice storm. Thank you!

Seeing one his free presentations on trusteeship at a local library based on a friend's recommendation, we were impressed with the thoroughness of the issues presented. When we went to his office for a free consultation, the personalized follow-up was just as impressive. We hired him to set up our tr...usteeship and have been pleased with all aspects of his office and of Ben personally. We have finished all aspects of the set up of the trusteeship but he continues to be willing to address any and all of our concerns that we call about as they surface weeks afterwards. We will continue to work with him and have already recommended him and his office to others.

This is what working with an attorney should be like. Benjamin was prepared with questions that were on point, suggestions on options to consider and why one was more appropriate for us to consider in our case. He then prepared documents that were tailored to our situation and prepared all the forms ...and documents we would need to place the relevant assets into a trust. We received a binder with all our documents, all the originals to be placed in safe-keeping and a thumb drive with all the documents. I can't think of a better outcome for our time spent and the fee. Plus, free followup consultations in the future.
