clear and direct service

I had a living will established with this company and Mr. Smith helped me finalize it. His suggestions were very helpful and clear and I felt that he really cared for my best interest.

Estate planning, Carleton Family Trust

Jacob Smith was very courteous, and thorough. We would not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family. Mr. Smith was fully versed in the details of our estate / trust needs and fulfilled our needs.

Great experience with no nonsense

I met Jacob to discuss updating my estate plan after divorce. He clearly and concisely answered all my questions and we marched forward to create a new trust (and revoke my previous one). Jacob is a straight shooter who knows his stuff.

Very impressed

We had to review and rewrite our trust. Mr. Smith explained all the recent changes in law, had great suggestions and went over each section. We gave them very short time as we were going overseas and everything was completed and ready for us to sign before the departure, including the deeds to our ho...mes. We do highly recommend the services of Jacob Smith. We feel his military background is a great asset in his current job.
