We like John and their staffs. We were introduced by our broker a few years ago. We had worked with other Trust attorney but they did not (1) know how to service (2) what to ask (3) and what we needed to do. John asked all these pertinent information which made us decide what needed to be said and done and he and his staffs made us very comfortable to open up. It is not easy to be discussing your personal affairs to some new person but this is their profession and John is a second generation TRUST attorney and this is reassuring. He did other legal services for us and our Business[s] and we are very satisfied.
3 years ago, John provided provided excellent and thorough estate planning for my immediate family. He followed up with annual reviews and a major revision (upgrade) when our financial situation changed. Then, 4 months ago, my sister became seriously ill, and we called John. He met with her in the hospital and very quickly prepared an effective plan for her and her minor children. Next week my mom is meeting with him to go over her estate planning. He's compassionate, knowledgeable and has a real talent for explaining things in non-lawyer terms, plus he's super friendly and upbeat.
