I am so thankful to have had Peter referred to me. He helped me through a very difficult time with professionalism and a calm reassuring demeanor. He always responded in a timely manner, and our interactions consistently left me with a confidence that all was being handled in the best possible way. I will certainly use his services again if the need arises.
We went to Peter for our end of life planning, and went into the process not knowing much about it. He was very thorough, and helped us come up with a great plan for our will, trust, health care concerns and more! He is very kind and considerate and will explain any questions you have. I would recommend anyone doing this style of planning to consult Peter.
I found Peter Herbst via AVVO when I did a search looking for a new trust attorney. I was looking to revamp my outdated trust documents and make some changes and had no clue where to start. I find it all confusing. From the first email inquiry to the final doc signing, Peter and his assistant Kristie did not miss a thing. Peter's pricing was very affordable without sacrificing quality of service one bit. He is very knowledgeable in his field and was thoughtful and understanding of my situation. He is also very mindful taking time to listen to my concerns and offered some great insight and advice on matters I struggled with. I also have a special needs son and he understood my concerns about his long term care. Peter is an exceptional estate attorney and I would give him higher than 5 stars if I could. Thank you!
For anyone looking for a competent, professional, and well informed lawyer to review and execute any aspect of your estate planning, Peter works above and beyond expectations. In spite of all the legal complexities, he explains all details to a full understanding. His calm nature and wealth of knowledge speeds things along in a very comforting way. He's fair, concise and to the point with just the right amount of personal touch. Peter takes his job seriously and works seamlessly to put his client's best interests in the forefront. Would highly recommend him and would definitely work with him again for any future estate planning needs.
Peter made obtaining my sons Trust easy and was a pleasure to work with. Our health proxy's and Power of attorney documents were spot on.
Peter was a tremendous help in updating our previous will! He was able to answer all our questions as to power of attorney,living will versus DNR, tax issues if we decided to pursue a trust for our assets and gave us an education as to the current legalities of elder law. My wife and I feel that our decision to use G&H was most fortunate for us and our family!
Finding the right lawyer to do your estate plan is not a fun/easy task. After other consult meetings left us confused and disappointed, as my husband and I left Peter's office we looked at each other and said, "we're hiring Peter." We met with Peter numerous times, asking many questions and even to review matters previously discussed. Very reasonable priced for his services, (and a flat fee), Peter expertly guided us through the process. Our estate plan required the establishment of a trust and when we described our somewhat non-traditional wishes, Peter came up with a specific plan to meet our objectives. His knowledge is unsurpassed, as well as his patience and understanding. Hire Peter, you will not be disappointed or hit with unexpected costs.
I highly recommend Peter Herbst for his knowledge of Elder Law and Estate Planning. My husband and I recently had Peter advise us as we updated our will. He patiently explained all the options available and the advantages and disadvantages of each option. He provided detailed explanations and gave us material to read before we decided the best plan for us. He explained various types of trusts to us and provided examples and potential scenarios of each. He explained everything in detail and assured us that he was there to answer any questions we may have. He also made sure to tell us we could call him with questions before and after our documents were filed and there would be no charge for phone calls. He filed our Will, Power of Attorney, HIPPAA Release, Declaration of Elder Homestead, Expression of Intention Regarding Health Care , & Release of Electronically Stored Information. He suggested that we call him if any situations occurred which might require a change to be made in our estate plans. He gave examples of changes in the future.
We are so glad that we found Peter to write our will. He is professional, knowledgeable, efficient, and direct - while also being a really nice guy who takes the time to explain details and answer every question that we had. We highly recommend working with Peter.
My husband and I married "later in life" and wanted to ensure that our estate was organized according to our wishes. We met with Peter and had no doubt that he was the person to handle our estate. He is personable and professional, and informs us of things we would not even think of. I would highly recommend Peter. A business is only as good as its support and Kristie does an excellent job as well. Thank you.
