Andrea Dee Hardin

My wife and I needed a fairly complex estate package (involving foreign countries). Ms Andrea Hardin was referred to us by one of my MSFT colleagues. She was able to go through all of the components of the estate plans for me and my family. She went and extra mile to explain things to us that were ne...w and unknown (and there are many!) We are happy and comfortable knowing that our affairs are in order. When the opportunity came to purchase a new home, we called Ms Hardin again. She was as kind as the first time and very very patient with us. She went through every page of every document and found a lot of inconsistencies in the materials proposed by the selling party. We felt well protected and taken care of by such an accomplished attorney. Thank you, Ms Hardin! We will get back to you for the attorney support when the time comes to sell our house in the future. Thank you again!

Ms. Hardin prepared estate planning documents for myself and my wife. She definitely was well informed on current tax laws; however, her attitude made us both less than comfortable. She acted condescending towards her staff - it seemed as though there was a power play happening. We, as clients, di...d not appreciate viewing the interoffice strife such as it was. I will not recommmend Ms. Hardin to any of my MS co-workers.

As General Counsel of a New York Stock Exchange-registered full service brokerage firm, Ms. Hardin was recommended to us for her trust and estates expertise. We needed her assistance in interpreting a particularly complex trust. Her analysis was insightful, practical and clear and we implemented, s...uccessfully, all of her recommendations.

Andrea was helping me and my family to complete our comprehensive estate planning before the end of fiscal year. Not only has she identified potential issues with our previous package, she was able to advise better strategies for us in the long run. Our estate planning spans across multiple countries... and Andrea was able to find appropriate materials for us. Her professionalism and passion are truly very invigorating in this area of law. Thank you, Andrea. Would definitely recommend her to my colleagues at Microsoft as well as friends and other family members. Thank you, again!

My husband and I met with Andrea a few years ago to do estate planning. Neither of us had ever written a will, or had much idea of what needed to be done. She walked us through the process quickly and easily, and worked with us to get everything in place, and gave us advice on how best to set it up.... She knows we're "email people" and sent all of our communications/meeting requests electronically, which was great. The final signing with witnesses was fast and easy. We will continue to return to her office when we need to make changes.
