I read the 1 review posted re: "affluent people". My parents, and myself have John Preston for our "living trusts". We are, simple country folk. "Mid America" if you will. Have some assets, but certainly not enough to do anything but keep ourselves fed and comfy in retirement years. I felt I had to post this, after reading the only other review. My Mother passed all of the sudden a year ago. I cannot tell you the EASE and comfort of having everything already lined up. They took her from ICU, to the funeral home. All my father and I had to do was pick up death certificates. They even took Mama to the Vet's cemetery. (thru the vet's program.) The mental stress of having to do all that was gone. All we had to do was grieve. No matter your age, DO this for your family. It's hard enough w/out dragging thru probate court for years, and family bickering. It's said and DONE.
Preston Estate Planning targets the more affluent elderly by placing full page ads in newspapers promising a free lunch and a free Kindle if seniors come to a meeting and bring their trust with them for review. John Preston told me that it didn't matter if their website was 10 years out of date because their audience did not much use computers or the web. At the luncheon, almost invariably the trusts are found to be significantly defective and in need of reworking. Their motto is "We Fix Trusts". Seniors are then offered a $100 gift card after they attend a free meeting with Mr. Preston or another lawyer for a more detailed review at a local rented office room. At the meeting I attended, my wife and I were told, after a cursory examination of our documents (prepared by a very highly regarded established local law firm) that they were among the worst he had ever seen and would not work as planned. Mr. Preston also told us that that there was not enough time to tell us all the problems with our trust and that it was too complicated for us to understand. However, if we agreed to have Preston Estate Planning do all the work that was necessary to "fix" the trusts, they would reduce the $7500 cost by $2000 - but only if we signed up at that exact moment - no waiting to think it over or get a second opinion or talk to family about it. I was not allowed to take any notes about the cost, and my request for Mr. Preston to return the required detailed questionnaire with its confidential, private, medical and financial information was not met, even after making the request in writing.

I was not allowed to take any notes about the cost, and my request for Mr. Preston to return the required detailed questionnaire with its confidential, private, medical and financial information was not met, even after making the request in writing.
I read the 1 review posted re: "affluent people". My parents, and myself have John Preston for our "living trusts". We are, simple country folk. "Mid America" if you will. Have some assets, but certainly not enough to do anything but keep ourselves fed and comfy in retirement years. I felt I had to post this, after reading the only other review. My Mother passed all of the sudden a year ago. I cannot tell you the EASE and comfort of having everything already lined up. They took her from ICU, to the funeral home. All my father and I had to do was pick up death certificates. They even took Mama to the Vet's cemetery. (thru the vet's program.) The mental stress of having to do all that was gone. All we had to do was grieve. No matter your age, DO this for your family. It's hard enough w/out dragging thru probate court for years, and family bickering. It's said and DONE.
Preston Estate Planning targets the more affluent elderly by placing full page ads in newspapers promising a free lunch and a free Kindle if seniors come to a meeting and bring their trust with them for review. John Preston told me that it didn't matter if their website was 10 years out of date because their audience did not much use computers or the web. At the luncheon, almost invariably the trusts are found to be significantly defective and in need of reworking. Their motto is "We Fix Trusts". Seniors are then offered a $100 gift card after they attend a free meeting with Mr. Preston or another lawyer for a more detailed review at a local rented office room. At the meeting I attended, my wife and I were told, after a cursory examination of our documents (prepared by a very highly regarded established local law firm) that they were among the worst he had ever seen and would not work as planned. Mr. Preston also told us that that there was not enough time to tell us all the problems with our trust and that it was too complicated for us to understand. However, if we agreed to have Preston Estate Planning do all the work that was necessary to "fix" the trusts, they would reduce the $7500 cost by $2000 - but only if we signed up at that exact moment - no waiting to think it over or get a second opinion or talk to family about it. I was not allowed to take any notes about the cost, and my request for Mr. Preston to return the required detailed questionnaire with its confidential, private, medical and financial information was not met, even after making the request in writing.
