Victoria has provided phenomenonal representation for me. She has guided me through one of the most stressful times of my life. Her passion for elite representation and advocating for special needs children involved in custody cases, shines through and through. She has alleviated worry and stress with her excellent skills in family law. Her willingness to go the extra mile has earned my trust and hopes for my case. My situation is complicated, involving custody matters across state lines. Previously, I've attained numerous lawyers. My frustration and stress mounted with waiting for return calls and preparedness for court. Victoria has responded promptly by calling me back and replying to emails. Also, she is fearless with handling challenges. She is confident in her abilities and it shows. As you know, attempting to navigate the legal system is overwhelming. Victoria has directed me step by step and provided encouragement to me. I'm so thankful that I retained her services. She is by far the best attorney that has represented me. I highly recommend her counsel. Her knowledge, passion, and patience truly go above and beyond.

I met Victoria at a NAMI meeting and was immediately impressed with her knowledge and ability to present information so it can be easily understood by everyone. Victoria has the natural ability to evaluate information and provide valuable feedback based on needs. She has assisted me by providing legal guidance and assistance for my son who has schizophrenia. My son has struggled with taking his meds and has ended up in jail. She provided amazing support and guidance to help get him placed in a mental health program rather than staying in jail. She also wrote a letter to our HOA supporting the need for my son to stay in our home, when my neighbors wanted him evicted from the neighborhood. She is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to special needs. Her passion for people and as an attorney comes through in everything she does. I feel very blessed to have met Victoria and would highly recommend her.

Ms. Patterson is a true professional lawyer. I have used her services at least three times in the past 8 years. She was always pleasant to discuss my cases by walking me through the legal process and discussing my options. She always made herself available to sit down and go over the issues step by step and update me on a regular basis on the status of my cases. What I appreciate the most is that I always felt being protected when she is handling my cases. She really fights to get the issues settled to my best interest. In all three cases the issues were settled in my favor. Two of those were contract disputes and the third was a real state transaction worth $80,000. I saw her in real action through mediation sessions and let me tell you....she was a real aggressive lawyer fighting to the end for an acceptable resolution to my case. Her fees were extremely reasonable and she will always be my first choice to go to lawyer.

Amy Cross reviewed and analysed my Trust and conferred with me about my existing documents. She then assisted me with my estate planning. She prepared and executed my Last Will, Durable Power of Attorney, Oregon Advance Directive, Burial Instructions, and Tangible Personal Property List. She recommended a Texas Land Sale Contract for one of my homes, several P.O.D. accounts for checking and savings accounts, and she explained all the details of a family existing Trust and tax implementations . She advised the dissolution of the Trust since the death of my parents and many of the details that involved in that process. Amy was very professional and warm and explained every detail of every transaction very clearly! I would recommend Amy to anyone who is looking for an honest and sincere attorney.

I have worked with Amy Cross since 2011 when she handled my divorce. Amy is understanding of any situation and very practical. She is reality based and will take the time to explain different options that are possible for a particular situation, and the best way to accomplish the outcome. Contacting her is never a problem as she is very responsive whether I email or call. I feel comfortable telling her confidential details and she's helping me start the process of drawing up my will. Another benefit when working with Amy is that she has been in practice long enough to have made many valuable connections in the surrounding community. Amy was able to put me in touch with a financial planner during my divorce and a tax professional in my immediate area that would suit my needs. Amy Cross is very trustworthy and I highly recommend her without reservation for any legal need of a personal or business nature.

Minerva Vazquez was invaluable in helping us get through a very difficult time. After my father passed away it was stressful and emotionally taxing. We had to grieve his loss, arrange funeral services, sort through all legal and financial matters related to his retirement, insurance and estate. Although my father was a dedicated, hard-working man he did not have a will or trust prepared. This created a level of anxiety and uneasiness for my mother and other members of the family. We were able to sort through all other financial matters except for the will and trust. It was important to my mom that a will and trust be created in case anything should happen to her. With my home being in North Carolina and my Mom’s in Miami, Minerva and staff went above and beyond to communicate and schedule a time to meet with us to finalize the will and trust. They were very responsive and thorough. Minerva walked us through the process and answered our questions no matter how trivial. Her experience and knowledge gave my mom and I a sense of peace and confidence that things were taken care of. We would not hesitate to refer others to this firm.

We requested Last Will and Testament, Durable Power of Attorney, Living Will and Health Care Surrogate legal documentation to be drafted based on our rather uncertain desires for eventual satisfaction of our personal final decisions. Attorney Jacobs stipulated a fee, arranged a personal interview with us in quiet, comfortable office, and comperhensibly briefed us on the broad ramifications of end of life legal documentation and the decisions to be made by each of us. He followed the interview some days later in another informal meeting when our ideas were finalized and personalized in documents he later developed. In the third and final session, again in a quiet, comfortable office, Attorney Jacobs explained in detail the documents put before us, introduced us to competent witnesses he had arranged to be present and guided us through each document, our approval of each document, the formal signing and witnessing of each document while responding objectively to any questions we offered. As we would say in the Navy; Well Done, Attorney Jacobs! We highly recommend Attorney Donald F. Jacobs to all needing legal counsel. Signed: Linda L. Barnes; Captain James H. Barnes, U. S. Navy (Retired).

My appointments with attorney Evans were by far the very best. They were productive, professional, precise, friendly, courteous and thoughtful. He was hired to produce new, updated, documents, i.e., will, power of attorney and medical directive. These were completed quickly and ready for pick up in a week. His staff was professional and thorough. I am most pleased with the service and highly recommend Lee & Evans, PA to anyone needing legal assistance.

I spoke with David on the phone initially involving a family member and possibly amending a Power of Attorney document that was drafted before the new Florida laws came into effect after 2011. During the initial phone call, David was very honest with me and my wife with our legal situation. David offered a level of professional trust that was immediately obvious. David was a referral and I can now see why he comes highly recommended.

My ex-husband passed last month, and lived in AZ. Our children live in Hawaii, and they had no idea what do do upon hearing about the passing of their father. We have been told that no Will was left, so we knew we needed to talk to an attorney to help us with this process. On the recommendation of another law firm, I was put in contact with Mr. Struse. We spend an hour long Zoom conference call with Mr. Struse and we all felt confident that he was the correct attorney to speak to about our concerns and helping us navigate our next direction. He answered all our questions, listening patiently, giving us ethical / straight forward advise. We left the conversation with the knowledge of how probate works and knowing how we need / want to move forward. Thank you Mr. Struse so much for helping us, especially with the distance problem (Hawaii - Arizona) and having no Will in place. Mr. Stuse is extremely east to talk to, answers your questions, helps you understand the process explaining in plain English, and was genuinely empathetic to our situation. I also need to add, Andrea, his paralegal, was wonderful to talk to and did a fantastic job setting up our Zoom appointment and doing the intake of information before our appointment. I truly wish I could find a law firm like this in Hawaii.

I've used the services of Slosser Law Firm's, Timothy Struse, in the past when he deftly sorted out my deceased mother's property holdings and got my sister and I on track to transfer the property title. The property had been taken out of the Trust to be refinanced when my mother was still alive, but was mistakenly not put back in the Trust. So when it came time to make sure the remaining properties were in order to sell and sign off on the escrow documents with only one Trustee instead of two, hiring Timothy Struse again was a no-brainer. Timothy made the process easier and saved my sister and I a lot of time and effort. He's affordable, fast, pleasant and knows what he's doing. You can interview other attorneys like I did prior to hiring him the first time, but I guarantee you I am most happy with Timothy and can't recommend him highly enough.

Tim Struse handled our case of Trust settlement. My sister and I had been working with another lawyer for 6 months to obtain our rightful inheritance after the death of our father, but the trustee of my father's Trust (his second wife) chose to interpret the documents to give herself all the income from the Trust assets for life even though our father had made it clear in the last amendment he signed before his death that she was to receive a lump sum and his children were to receive the remainder. We were getting nowhere until we hired Tim Struse who promptly drew up a Trust Distribution Agreement which all parties felt was equitable. Throughout the process, Tim kept us informed of progress, answered all our emails (sometimes within minutes) and made us feel like we had a powerful ally. I would highly recommend Tim Struse to anyone with Trust or Estate problems.

I was rear-ended while I was driving. I was extremely shaken and was also injured. A friend then recommended Attorney Paloma to me to get through this. She said a lot of great things about her so I took it from there. I can't say enough about her concern, advice and expertise.

Megan Greene assisted me with my mother's estate after she passed away unexpectedly. And amidst an already very somber situation, nothing was in order, nothing was prepared with regards to a will, and in order order to gather all of the necessary information, I found myself playing detective. However, in all of the chaos, step by step, as more information was recovered, Megan managed to wrap up my mother's probate estate as quickly as she could (staying within the boundaries of the law) and rather neatly to add. Communication was very important to me as well as I currently live abroad and Megan proved to be very quick, thorough, and patient with every response (as was her staff). So, with no more loose ends, thanks to Megan, I can finally begin putting this dark chapter of my life to rest. With all of that being said, I absolutely recommend Megan and the entire Greene & Greene firm/staff. Thanks for everything Megan!

It seems unfathomable that an honest individual’s hard work and smart investment decisions can become their emotionally imprisoning liabilities. However, this is exactly what can result from the individual’s naivety and via an unfair “justice” system and I experienced it firsthand. I found Doug’s website as a result and he and his staff's skill, compassion, and attention to detail gave me the assurance I needed in safeguarding my unprotected investments. Doug developed a protection plan tailored to my unique situation, significantly minimizing the threat exposure of my unprotected investments and increasing the likelihood of their availability to beneficiaries I select. If you are fortunate enough to personally own any assets other than a homesteaded property and/or a retirement account, don’t take that ownership for granted. Instead, ensure your continual control of those assets by putting a solid protection strategy in place developed by the best there is- call Doug Lodmell.

Without a doubt if you are looking into purchasing an asset protection trust, Mr. Lodmell is your answer. As a professional in the healthcare industry, one is always unsure of all of the hidden land mines that one encounters on a daily basis. From the predatory attorneys, the employee's of your practice, the non stop governmental regulations, and the day to day risk of working on patients, asset protection is a must in this day and age I did a ton of research before deciding on choosing Mr. Lodmell. I too was skeptical on picking an attorney who lived in a different state, but after talking with Mr. Lodmell several times ,and personally hearing from several of his current clients, it was clear that I had found my asset protection attorney. Mr. Lodmell has always been there to take my phone calls, and too answer any questions that have arisen throughout the years. He is highly respected from not only his peers in the legal field, but in the healthcare field as well. The piece of mind that one has after obtaining an asset protection trust through Doug has been priceless, and should not be overlooked. Not having to look over your shoulder or constantly worrying about people trying to take what you have worked hard for during your career has been one of the most valuable features of his trusts. Don't be fooled by people who are offering asset protection trusts that are lower in price. Remember, you get what you pay for. I wanted a family insurance policy to protect my family ,so I only wanted the best. Doug is the best of the best, and I highly recommend him to my fellow healthcare providers.

To make the most of your initial meeting with a lawyer, come prepared with:

  1. Relevant Documents:
    Bring all documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, legal notices, court papers, or evidence.
  2. Written Summary:
