Posted by Brent | March 11, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Wonderful, reliable, helpful, responsive estate attorney, could not possibly complain about anything

My wife and I have been dealing with the estate of her elderly mother and recently deceased father for the past year. There were various estate documents prepared by their old attorney but it was a complicated mess and there were crucial omissions and errors that made it difficult for us to proceed i...n managing the inheritance and her mother's affairs. We hired Adam after being referred to his practice by an old friend of ours. Adam was wonderful in every way. He answered every question and thoughtfully explained everything about the estate and the documents that we were confused about. He fixed the document errors that had obstructed us and successfully worked with a court in Idaho to correct and update the deed for one of the properties we were dealing with. I can't think of anything that could have gone better in our experience of working with him and I couldn't think of any complaints about him if I tried. He helped us successfully resolve all the legal issues we had and has provided us great peace of mind as we move forward with continuing to manage the estate.

Apprehensions Assuaged

First time I ever needed a lawyer (thankfully:-) and Adam (and Gravis Law staff in Richland, WA) were great to work with. Professional yet personable. Highly recommend them to anyone.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
