Thank you Arlene

Arlene helped me probate my wife's will. She clearly explained the process and the fees. She walked me through each step. She provided consistent follow ups. All of this was done with deep compassion. She made an arduous task very doable. I will soon be consulting her about my new will and powe...r of attorney.

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.
