Andre is 2nd to no one! He knowledge, experience and desire to help is unmatched. I will look no where else.
It was a pleasure working with Mr. Pennington. His military and years of experience shine through the moment I spoke with him. He made dealing with hard decisions comfortable, he used terms that where easy to understand and gave knowledgeable advice. I would not only recommend Mr. Pennington, but I will be using him again.
I came here for help with a Special Needs Trust and the firm provided exactly what I needed and was very compassionate and thorough in doing so. Would definitely recommend to anyone and especially to individuals with the same needs as ours.
Very thorough, compassionate and fair. Best attorney I've found in Arizona!
After the sudden death of my husband I needed a probate lawyer to help me refinance my home. We thought we had taken all the right steps to insure all the necessary steps were taken so we wouldn't run into any problems. Boy was I wrong. Seems the verbiage was written wrong in our Wills. I was so stressed out from losing my husband, and trying to get this refinancing done in the time frame I was given I needed help. Andre at Pennington Law took a lot of that stress away from me, and ensured me things would get done. Even during this Covid-19 Pandemic Andre was able to file and work his magic to make sure I was taken care of, and this overwhelming process was done, and done right.
Andre was super. I had a Estate question outside of Maricopa and Andre overlooked the documents I had and gave me his honest opinion and suggested I contact a attorney down in Tucson. If this is the kind of effort and service Andre does on a free consult I can only imagine what he does once retained. Thanks a bunch Andre!!!
I recently had the opportunity to work with Andre and found him to be exactly the kind of attorney I want in my corner. Andre talked me through my estate plan with detail and care, all the while keeping the communication simple and understandable. By the time we were done, I had a firm grasp in what we set up in my and my wife's estate plan, what the next steps were to completion, and complete confidence that we had a rock solid plan in place. And, in today's uncertain times, that certainty is worth a lot.
Mr. Pennington was the ONLY lawyer I reached out to that said he would try the simple (informal) probate first and was almost certain he could get it through. If not, we would then go the formal route. He succeeded, as he said was possible, with the informal. The quick turnaround time amazed me (less than 4 weeks). He is a down-to-earth, straight talking, amazing professional that I would highly recommend to anyone!
Mr Pennington responded to my questions regarding the ancillary probate quickly, and has been hired as a result. He has shown that he cares about his clients, and fees are reasonable. We will be able to complete the process without hassles, and know we have an attorney that will ensure all necessary paperwork is filed correctly. Thank you Andre Pennington for your assistance with the ancillary probate we need.
I went in to see Andre about setting up my estate plan and I was not disappointed. He was very knowledgeable and got me exactly what I needed. I would recommend Andre to anyone looking to have an estate plan done the right way.
