My husband and I give John Parnell Jr. our highest endorsement in estate planning. Having neared retirement, we were in need of all aspects of "getting things in order." John is extremely knowledgeable and up-to-date in terms of the legal aspects of estate planning, and additionally he can explain it in layman's terms. He did not rush us; he established a friendly atmosphere and went through all the things we needed to decide with care and concern. John is a gifted attorney; you can see his natural intelligence at work, coupled with his passion for knowing the law and serving his clients. We trust him implicitly and would recommend him to anyone in search of quality legal assistance and personal, caring attention.

Divorce is a very trying time to say the least but, it was reassuring to have John there to guide me through. He was extremely thorough, personable and reliable. Also, he was extremely easy to speak with and understanding in delicate situations. I would highly recommend John to anyone seeking legal council.

We worked with John on our recent estate planning. John was very thorough in his work, addressing our concerns, and doing so in a timely manner. My husband and I feel so much better knowing this is now taken care of for our family. We would definitely recommend John to others and would work with him in the future if ever needed!

John was referred to me by my daughter after she used him for her estate planning. I found him to be very professional, highly respectful of my situation, wishes and plans. He took the fear out of estate planning and was very knowledgeable and able to answer all the questions I had about my estate. His relaxed yet confident demeanor made these topics easier to discuss and decide, bringing peace of mind to me regarding my family when I am no longer here with them (hopefully someday far into the future!). I highly recommend John to anyone looking for a trustworthy attorney to handle all their estate planning.

On July 13, 2020 my mother passed away. We consulted with John Parnell, Jr., regarding my mother’s estate. John was very knowledgeable and respectful of our situation. He helped us to make the right decision regarding our inquiry. Subsequently we hired John to assist us in our estate planning. He drew up a Living Trust for us. John explained the benefits of creating a Trust and was very patient in answering any questions we posed to him. He made certain that we had a full understanding of the documents before signing them. John is a very kind and knowledgeable attorney and we would highly recommend him to anyone seeking Estate Planning.
