Valerie really took the time to explain what documents my husband and I needed and how they work. She focused on what was important to me and my husband. She assisted me with funding my trust to ensure I received all the benefits of getting a trust. I would strongly recommend Valerie.
My husband and I recently worked with Valerie for our estate planning. She was very kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. She answered any questions we had during the process, and was very good at explaining. We are thankful we were referred to Valerie. We will recommend her to anyone that will need her professional help. Thanks again!
We were doing minor estate planning and just needed some documents reworked. Valerie understood immediately what was needed, was quick and helpful. I recommend her!
I recently worked with Valerie at Elder Law in reference to my mother’s estate planning documents. I would highly recommend her as an attorney, as she was very professional, kind, listened and understood our full needs and overall transparent when it came to pricing. I have already recommended this firm to friends and family. I’m also extremely happy to say we are at ease after getting the correct paperwork in place.
Provided excellent service. She really cared about my issues and helped me create an estate plan I could feel comfortable with.
