Leonard A Hagen

Len prepared a will for our family, which included some estate planning. He was extremely thorough, knowledgeable and best of all, he was very friendly and able to relay all the complex legal terms so that they were easily understandable. As an experienced tax accountant, Len is the best estate plann...er in the Greater Seattle Area that I've run into. A true 5 out of 5 stars.

After close to 10 years of procrastination, we finally sat down with Leonard to get our "affairs" in order. We settled on Sound Estate Planning after consulting with a handful of other elder-care attorneys and estate planners. Leonard's approach, from start to finish, was careful, thorough and un...derstandable. After an initial consultation and completion of a profile questionnaire, a short meeting allowed us to get questions asked and answered. We particularly appreciated his willingness to explain how individual documents could be structured differently. He took care to detail how each approach could result in benefit or harm to our situation, while maintaining the flexibility we desired. We welcomed his suggestions for some additional documentation which added to our protection without additional cost. We found Len's process and explanations to be both comforting and educational without being overly simplistic. We're glad to have found Sound Estate Planning and are happy to recommend Len without reservation!

I can't recommend Len enough. He helped my husband and I update a seriously outdated will. He was very thorough, going over all of our options. He made sure that we understood everything and was upfront about the cost (which was very reasonable). We now have solid estate plan. A large weight is now o...ff my shoulders.

I was very pleased with the way Leonard listened to us as we updated our 20 year old will. He made great suggestions and provided us with a revocable living trust that clearly states our wishes. Not only that, but he provided us with an annual review so that the trust won't become outdated over tim...e. Leonard was very easy to work with, he listened to us, and he delivered just what we wanted. I highly recommend him.

Len is fantastic!. You should be honored and feel fortunate to have found him. He recently walked myself and my parents through separate but similar estate plans and now we have the confidence going forward that our upon our passing, our financial affairs will be easily handled for the betterment ...of our remaining family. Len's calm demeanor and genuine personality make the subject matter of finances after death seem not so grim to discuss. It's important work and Len handles it perfectly. Thank you Sir!
