Paul Douglas Fitzpatrick

Paul has been helping my family for years. He has taken care of our parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents for many, many years. He is one of the most highly regarded estate attorneys in the Northwest. He is admired and respected by his peers (fellow attorneys) and the business community within our reg...ion.

Paul Fitzpatrick made working on estate planning a pleasure, or as close to it as that task is ever going to be. This was our first time making a will, which can be daunting, but Paul patiently guided us through every stage of the process, handling innumerable questions and making sure we understood ...everything and considered all eventualities. Now that we're done, we feel relieved to have our estate in order and confident going forward, and that is in large measure due to Paul's thoroughness and experience. Likewise, we know that in future when and if changes need to be made, he will be able to guide us through that process as well. We would happily recommend him to anyone.

Mr. Fitzpatrick has been my lawyer for many years. I can't recommend him highly enough. When my father was very ill and I needed a power of attorney immediately, he met with me and had one prepared in less than two hours-exactly what I needed when I needed it. I rely on him to point out any potent...ial problems before I sign any contracts, and he has always given me superb advice.

I first found Paul through a referral from another attorney that I know. Paul helped me through an extremely difficult time in my life when I lost a loved one. He was so very kind to me when I needed someone to be and non emotional when I couldn't be. This time, he helped me through my own Est...ate Planning process. I found him to be very thorough, timely in responses and knowledgeable of the law. We initially went through the process of appointment and cost so that everything was clear to start. He pointed out things that a client wouldn't necessarily know about consequences of a particular action and answered any questions that I had, no matter how obvious. He is highly professional yet with a great sense of humor. I would recommend him for any work in his related fields. Since I now live in Western Washington, I asked him for a referral for an attorney in my area to help with my brother's estate and he willingly gave me one. I can't say enough good things about Paul and recommend him highly to anyone looking for help with an estate settlement or planning their own estate.

Paul and his support staff have done an excellent job of compiling all of our estate issues and putting everything into one Estate Plan. Paul kept us informed through the entire process, and he did a great job of providing clear answers to our numerous questions. Calls were returned promptly, and i...f there was a delay on something, we were kept updated on the progress. Even though the plan is complete as of now, we appreciated receiving a detailed letter from Paul telling us details and issues to be aware of in upcoming years, as time passes and situations change. We are comfortable knowing that we will be able to rely on Paul if and when things need to be amended. We would highly recommend Paul for Estate Planning needs.
