Chad setup a very comprehensive living trust us us. I liked the fact that the Hammond Law Group charges a fixed fee for the work you want done. That way you know what the cost will be without worrying about lawyer hourly rates. I also liked the fact that your fixed price includes update meetings every three years and meetings with beneficiaries after a death.

Chad follows through on what he says he'll do, has the knowledge to help guide his clients on a sound course of action, and is very personable as well. I highly recommend him.

I was in search of an attorney to create an estate plan for myself and my husband. I attended several free seminars put on by local attorneys. I narrowed the choice siren to two different firms with similar philosophies and fees. We went with Chad Spencer because he made us both feel comfortable plus he made a comment during the free seminar regarding complications when a charity receives a portion from retirement accounts. We planned to include charities in our estate and he was the only attorney that seemed to assume this would be the case. Overall we were very pleased with the full estate plan.
