"I had a great experience with Richard setting up my trust. It was easy to make an appointment and the whole process was very simple and streamlined. There were two meetings total, one on zoom and one in person, and a worksheet to fill out. The trust was very comprehensive. I would definitely recommend his services."

"Excellent Legal Service! From the very start, we felt very comfortable working with Richard on our estate plan. There is a lot of legal information in an estate plan and Richard was very knowledgeable and patient in the process. He explained everything thoroughly to help us make the best decisions. He made it very easy for us to understand and in a streamlined process. We will definitely contact him again in the future for legal services and pass along his contact information to family and friends. We highly recommend Richard! Thank you Richard, we are very happy with our estate plan and it was a pleasure working with you."

"I needed to update my Living Trust which was created many years ago to reflect my most current wishes and Richard made it very easy and straightforward. He is very thorough and organized. I had a lot of questions (as I'm usually the nervous type with everything related to my finances) --- Richard definitely put my mind at ease. He definitely deserves a 5+ rating."

"In first consultation, Richard took time to understand our situation and willing to answer our concerns and questions. I knew we found the right person. Instead of glory promises, he told us the reality possible outcomes. Rather than guessing our next step in this unfamiliar legal system, Richard wou...ld check with us and provided good advice with quick response. He followed through and got us periodic update. It really helped me to calm down. I will definitely recommend him."
