Making a decision to file bankruptcy was one of the hardest things I have ever done in my life. Next I had to pick an attorney, that to me was admitting I had FAILED. I knew I did not want to go to one of those offices that has several attorneys or one that I felt was over priced. Every time I searched, and this went on for at least 6 months, Mark Atchley's name was where I ended up. I made the dreaded call. I know Mark could hear the anxiety in my voice, but he was so calm and reassuring, letting me know that life happens and lets setup a consultation. Meeting Mark in person assured me I had made the right decision in calling him, and the price was good too! We started the process in March, and was completed in July. Mark and his office people made me feel like a friend they CARED about, not a client.

My wife and I used Atchley law firm for our bankrupcy. The staff were very helpful answering questions and letting us know when each step had to be done. Payment was reasonable and could be paid over time instead of all at once. I feel I made some new friends. If you need estate planning or a bankrupcy give them a call.

We had a great experience working with Daniel. Our accident situation was very stressful and we didn’t know where to start. Thankfully we found Daniel and not only did he take care of all the stress and unknown, he explained everything well and is very easy to get ahold of and gives you all the time you need. It was wonderful to be able to focus on our healing and our family, knowing we were in good hands.

If you want justice for a loved one for medical malpractice, and wrongful death stay away from this law firm. They will only take your case if the victim and their family didn't sign any medical documents at the hospital. Not sure what planet they practice law on. What a waste of time.

While Tim was my Trusted Advisor in developing my…Trust, his entire team made the experience enjoyable. Halie and Joni were always available via phone and email to make sure I knew what to gather, answer ALL my questions, and generate video and IRL appointments per my schedule.
Tim has a great personality and his attention to detail is amazing!
I was so happy with their services that I am now working with Tim on an Operating Agreement for an entity I have.

My experience working with attorney Justin Call was exceptional. He is very personable. I felt comfortable working with him from the very beginning of our first meeting. I wanted to set up a Trust. Even after looking online to educate myself, I was still somewhat unclear about all that was involved. Justin was very patient and knowledgeable as he explained the various aspects that were important for me to fully understand. I was able to ask questions that he answered clearly. I grew more confident in what I needed to do for the Trust, and how it worked in general, due to his supportive demeanor.
It was a great time saver that our first 2 meetings were virtual. I appreciated his staff setting them up to fit my schedule. Reminder emails were appreciated. When I went to Justin’s office to review and sign the documents, he continued to take the time to make sure I understood everything I was signing.
Working with Justin was a pleasure. Because of his hard work and commitment, I now have a complete Trust I fully understand. I recommend him to anyone who expects an attorney to be committed to your needs and to work hard in your best interests. Thank you.

I recently had the privilege of consulting with Attorney Justin Call regarding an appeal for my case, and I must say, my experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the outset, Justin demonstrated a deep understanding of the legal intricacies involved, which immediately instilled a sense of confidence.
What truly set Justin apart was his ability to convey complex legal concepts in an understandable manner. He patiently explained each step of the appeal process, ensuring I was fully informed and comfortable with the proceedings. His dedication to my case was evident through his meticulous attention to detail and his proactive approach to addressing potential challenges.
Moreover, Justin's empathetic and supportive demeanor made a typically stressful process much more manageable. He was always available to answer my questions and provide reassurance when needed.
Overall, my experience with Attorney Justin Call was outstanding. His expertise, coupled with his genuine commitment to his clients, makes him an invaluable asset to anyone navigating the complexities of the legal system. I highly recommend his services to anyone seeking knowledgeable, compassionate, and effective legal representation

I contacted Sylvina and eventually hired her to help me finalize matters still lingering from my court ordered Settlement Conference. These unresolved matters come after many years of litigation and many judge changes. She worked really hard to bring herself up to speed on this case and help me to bring these matters to the new Commissioners (previous Judge retired) attention. The Commissioner re-ordered the Trustee to do the same things the previous Judge had ordered. He complied with some but, not all of those orders. Again, and again throughout the settlement process this Trustee has failed to do his duty. We were forced to take the Trustee to court in order to get him to fully comply. Sylvina did her best to enlighten the court as to the issues that the Trustee had ignored...sadly, our court system is broken, and this Trustee breached his duties and the terms of the stated wills again. I am still trying to understand how a person can meet with their attorney and have Will(s) drawn up - which clearly stated his wishes and, when those wishes are not complied with by the Trustee, our court system doesn't hold them accountable. Sylvina did her job the best she could, and I enjoyed working with her.

I thought I had a pretty good understanding of How trusts work but this time, my wife and myself and Joseph looked at every page of everything the will the trust the power of attorney’s and explained it to us and I didn’t know half as much as I thought, so we were really appreciative of this. It took a little while, but we never felt hurried or stressed because every question I had was able to be answered clearly. This is such an important part of making sure all your wishes going to be followed precisely. his support staff is also excellent Roxie spent a lot of time with me calling and getting information so that this trust could be done properly.

I am immensely grateful for the outstanding job Eric W. Kessler did in advocating for me throughout every step of my divorce. As a stay-at-home mother, I was deeply concerned about my financial future and uncertain about the next steps in this challenging process. From our first meeting, Eric’s extensive knowledge and expertise in family law, built over his impressive 40 years of experience, were evident and provided me with much-needed reassurance.
Eric’s approach to my case was nothing short of exceptional. He demonstrated a perfect balance of empathy and assertiveness, understanding my concerns while being aggressive when necessary to protect my interests. His strategic insights and meticulous attention to detail ensured that every aspect of my situation was thoroughly addressed. Eric’s ability to anticipate potential issues and proactively navigate through them was remarkable, ultimately securing a favorable outcome for me and my children.
What truly sets Eric apart is his unwavering dedication and commitment to his clients. He was always available to answer my questions, no matter how trivial they seemed, and his guidance was both clear and compassionate. Eric’s professionalism and tenacity in the courtroom were impressive and instilled confidence in me throughout the proceedings.
I cannot thank Eric W. Kessler enough for his exceptional service and steadfast support during this pivotal time in my life. His expertise and experience in family law made all the difference, and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a highly skilled and dedicated attorney. Eric is not just a lawyer; he is a true advocate who genuinely cares about his clients and their futures.

I’m so glad I found Eric Kessler and highly recommend him. I recently moved to Arizona from another state and needed an attorney to do a restatement of my current trust to conform to Arizona law. I wanted a professional who: is very knowledgeable about trusts, who would be responsive and communicate timely with me, who would allow me to review the draft before expecting me to sign off on the finished product (apparently this is not a common practice here, which surprised me), and who was willing to answer all my questions. Eric provided all these and more. He really listened, provided lots of good ideas, explained everything so well, and the final documents are well written and understandable. His process, as well as the other attorneys and staff in his firm, was efficient, professional and respectful of my time as well as his. It’s no wonder he is rated so highly by his clients as well as attorney rating sites.
I highly recommend him to my peers who may be seeking guidance in estate planning. Thank you, Eric, I am so grateful for your superior work!

What an Estate Planning Lawyer Can Do for You
An estate planning lawyer helps individuals plan for the management and distribution of their assets after death or during incapacitation. Their services involve drafting important legal documents, such as wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives. Estate planning attorneys work to ensure that your assets are transferred according to your wishes, minimize tax liabilities, and avoid probate court. They also help clients plan for potential long-term care needs and protect their estate from being diminished by healthcare costs.
By working with an estate planning lawyer, you can have peace of mind knowing that your loved ones will be cared for and that your estate will be managed efficiently and according to your desires.
When Should I Hire an Estate Planning Lawyer?
Hiring an estate planning lawyer is beneficial in many situations, especially when you want to ensure that your assets are handled properly after death. Common reasons to hire an estate planning lawyer include:
- Drafting a will: If you want to clearly define how your assets will be distributed after death, an attorney can draft a legally sound will.
- Creating a trust: For those looking to avoid probate or provide for loved ones over time, setting up a trust can help manage the distribution of assets.
- Planning for incapacity: An estate lawyer can help draft powers of attorney and healthcare directives so that your financial and medical decisions are made by someone you trust if you become incapacitated.
