Holly Anne Gibbons

Holly was asked to make revisions to our present Trust. The intake meeting was comfortable and our questions were answered in a way that was understandable to the lay person. She offered some suggestions that we had not thought of and we agreed with. The appointment to pick up the finished revisio...n was on the date set, and she went over each change in a timely manner. This was a positive experience.

Holly Anne Gibbons prepared a new will, power of attorney and advance directive. She was very professional, answered and addresssed all my questions/concerns and incorporated many important issues into my will, durable power of attorney and advance directive that were not incorporated in my original... will, etc. Her advice in helping me prepare these documents was invaluable and I feel 100% confident that my legal affairs are now in order and I have peace of mind.

After completing some research on attorneys who specialized in estate planning on the Oregon Coast, I chose Holly Anne Gibbons to review my will and related documents, such as a health care directive. My will had been prepared while I was living in Oklahoma and now that I am an Oregon resident I wan...ted to be certain that my will would conform to Oregon laws. I also desired to add a codicil to my will which would establish a specific gift for a close friend. In my initial meeting with Ms. Gibbons, I found her to be very easy to talk to and quite responsive to the needs that I presented to her. From the start, I felt that I had chose the right attorney and that it was definitely worth the drive from Lincoln City to Waldport to meet with her. In our initial courtesy meeting, Ms Gibbons determined that my best course would be to have an Advance Directive for Health Care that meets the Oregon standards. Thus, I hired her to review my will, to prepare this Advance Directive and to prepare the codicil to my will that I desired in order to establish the gift. Within two weeks, I met with Ms. Gibbons to sign the Codicil and the Advance Directive. I was very pleased with both documents that she had prepared for me and with the information that my will that had been prepared in Oklahoma would be adequate to meet Oregon standards. In both meetings, I was very impressed with Holly Gibbons both as an attorney and a person who was genuinely interested in my peace of mind throughout the process. She was happy to translate the legal language so that I had a clear understanding of the issues. In two meetings with her, I felt that I had an attorney who I would be happy to work with in the future and to recommend to someone who was looking for estate planning advice. And then there was a pleasant surprise that I had not anticpated - I felt that I had met a new friend in Holly as well.

I have known Holly for more than 7 years and worked with her on a variety of projects in various capacities, and I would recommend her services to anyone without a moment’s hesitation. Holly possesses a rare combination of sharp intellect and keen attention to detail mixed with a warmth, charisma, ...and sense of humor that immediately puts people at ease and makes them want to spend more time around her. She is bright and articulate, and explains things clearly and effortlessly. Holly’s work ethic, sense of integrity, and professionalism are unparalleled. In short, I feel incredibly fortunate simply to know her.

We went to Holly re out estate planning. She was very thorough in her explanation of the process. Each page of the documents were explained and all of our questions were answered. She gave us suggestions/ideas as to how to make our planning exactly what we wanted. She took the time to get to know u...s before we started the process of planning for the future.
