Our will took a long time because we were unsure about things. Phillip stuck with us throughout and explained all of the details as many times as needed. He is highly recommended.
My wife and I found Phillip to be very knowledgeable and helpful. Planning for the future is a tough thing to do. Phillip was VERY helpful and informative regarding the many options available. this was a very detailed process and each meeting with him proved to be very calming and we walked away feeling confident our estate is properly cared for. I would recommend Phillip and would plan on calling him for other legal needs.
Phil is an Elder Law Attorney, LifePlanning Coach, and previously a co-host for an AgingOptions radio show on KGMI. He is also a passionate advocate for the aging and elderly. He was first introduced to the idea of LifePlanning when Rajiv Nagaich was his Elder Law Professor at the University of Washington School of Law. Phil had been fortunate enough to mentor under Rajiv until he came to work for him back in in September of 2014. Phil is currently the Managing Attorney of both our Edmonds and Bellingham offices.
Phil is also a member of the Board of Directors for the Whatcom County Hospice Foundation as well as the Advisory Committee for the Bellingham Senior Activity Center. As well, Phil does quite a bit of Pro Bono work every year on behalf of Law Advocates of Whatcom County, a not-for-profit organization that provides legal assistance for those in need. Phil’s parents live in Ferndale and he and his wife, Elisa, recently returned to make their home in Bellingham with their two dogs, Blackjack and Augustus. In their spare time, you can find Phil and his family enjoying all the golfing, camping, boating, crabbing, fishing, hiking, and winter sports that our beautiful Whatcom county has to offer.

Best Attorney for Elder Care Issues
Preparing for elder care as 60 years olds can be a difficult trek through uncharted territory, but with Mr. George we made it to "Safe Harbor" by incorporating Aging Options all the way. He has become a friend of our family and a stedfast resource in future needs. Peace of mind is what we walked away from after working four months to arrange our estate in legal order. Everyone could prosper too if they decide to get their affairs in order.

Knowledgable and Personable
I found Mr George to be both knowledgable and personable. I felt he gave me 100% of his attention and handled my matter with the utmost professionalism and was more than expeditious in resolution. He will be someone I use again and will refer to others.
