Trust preparation

I created a trust years ago when I inherited assets from my father. Simple. 50/50 to each of my children. Then one adult daughter became disabled and it was suggested that I set up a special trust for her. The other daughter was now married with two kids. Scott walked me through lots of options ...and raised issues I hadn't considered before. Creating a trust is more than just divvying up assets. It takes thought and consideration. He was patient and thorough. I feel I now have a trust that protects the assets, is tailored to the needs of my children, and that represents my desires for use of the assets. I highly recommend Scott.

Great

Scott did a complete estate plan for us. As a retired CPA, I have an understanding of what needed to be done, He did a great job. But of greater importance, was his ability to communicate with my wife and me. He was able to tactfully call our attention to different methods of achieving our goals. ... Recently, our son passed and we had to amend the plan to meet our changed goals. Again, he was very helpful and helped us define what needed to be done. As a person, he listens well and understands your needs and desires. He is friendly and doesn’t not try to superimpose his logic.

Trust Attorney

Scott made both my wife and me feel unhurried in our conversations with him. We found him very comfortable to talk with and thorough in his explanations and attention to detail. He seemed highly competent in understanding and explaining Oregon law relevant to trusts. We recommend him without reser...vation.

Estate planning lawyer | Dec 09

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have worked collaboratively with Scott for over a decade. I know him extremely well and can honestly say he is one of the most honorable and hard working attorneys I know. Scott's vast wealth of experience - from the oil fields of Oklahoma to managing a well-known family business - allows him to guide his clients with the wisdom and confidence that comes from having once been in the trenches himself. As an estate planner, Scott's compassion, knowledge, and brilliant way with words helps him create personalized estate plans that capture the essence of a family's goals and values. Scott Corey is a man of integrity who applies his many gifts towards helping serve the legal needs of others both in business and estate planning. He is a devoted son, husband and father; he gives back to his community through his work with civic and charitable organizations; and he is dedicated to always providing his clients with the best planning possible. I endorse him without hesitation."
