Mr. Siebers was the attorney for my elderly father's estate planning and finalization. He was not only professional but friendly and sensitive to my father's wishes. Everything was carried out in a timely and efficient manner. I highly recommend Mr. Siebers as your estate attorney!

Several months before our 89 year old father’s death, my sister set up an appointment with attorney Bill Siebers to prepare a will and power of attorney for Dad. My sister, my wife and I attended the appointment with my father and all four of us were truly impressed. We were welcomed and made comfortable. Bill was on time, very polite and very friendly. Mr. Siebers was attentive and understanding as we explained my father’s financial condition and medical state. Bill asked questions to gain better insight and often directly inquired of my father to be sure that the focus was Dad’s wishes and interest. When my father interjected several of his experiences from serving in WWII, Mr. Siebers showed genuine interest and patiently listened. In the days to follow, Mr. Siebers prepared the documents in a timely and professional manner. In the meantime my father had been admitted to the hospital with his future unknown. Bill arranged for himself, his wife and his assistant to visit Dad and to sign the documents with along with Dad at the hospital. This made Dad feel “special”. Several days later my father passed away. As power of attorney of the estate, I hired attorney Bill Siebers to handle the estate affairs. Bill did an excellent job of explaining the process and my duties to all of the family members. Throughout the process, Bill has been outstanding at communicating through email, postal service and phone calls. Attorney Bill Siebers is polite, friendly, attentive, understanding, knowledgeable, professional, and detail-oriented. All of this while providing his services at very reasonable costs.

Attorney Siebers assisted with the administration of my mother's estate. In addition to the usual duties, there was a trust agreement that was modified to suit the heirs. He was clear in his interpersonal and written communications. He was knowledgeable about the pertinent laws and practical application of them. He was efficient, thoughtful and compassionate. His fees were reasonable. Our experience with Attorney Siebers was entirely satisfactory. So much so that we asked him to draft and ultimately implement our estate plan, which is state of the art. Since then there have been questions that have arisen in other areas of the law. He responded promptly to our calls and when it was outside of his expertise/practice, he made an excellent referral. This man has the essential qualities for our attorney. He is ethical and professional.

I have been in education for 34 years and am currently a Principal of a school. Years ago, Bill was a student in one of my classes and I was very impressed with his character and respectful attitude. When my mother needed legal council recently, I highly recommended Bill, knowing that he was trustworthy, had a strong work ethic, and moral integrity. Throughout the process, Bill was very thorough and detail-oriented. I was very impressed with his efficient use of time and resources. His expertise was the reason my mother's case was successful. Bill was very supportive of my mother and treated her with great care and respect. His knowledge of the legal process is outstanding and I highly recommend him to everyone. In other words, he is the best in the business! If you need legal services, Bill will provide you and your family with a personal connection and build a strong relationship that is long lasting. You will return time and time again for his services with great satisfaction. It is a comfort to know that you can trust your lawyer every step of the way and Bill Siebers is definitely a man to trust.

Bill took the time with us and helped use secure our needs for our family. He explained our options and discussed our concerns in length. His qualifications are not just elder law but family law as well. Great experience!

It is without reservation that I recommend Mr. Siebers. I am assisting my elderly mother and stepfather with their finances. I contacted Mr Siebers from Florida for a telephone conference as I was unable to unravel the formulas used in Illinois when one spouse lives in the Veteran's Nursing Home and one spouse remains in the marital home in a totally different state. Mr. Siebers responded immediately and we scheduled a telephone conference the very next day. After a brief description of our concerns, Mr. Siebers was able to walk me through the processes, rules, regulations and financial formulas. It is clear that he knows the law inside and out. I was confident with the answers he provided. The recommendations he made to assist us with our specific situation were very insightful. He was very patient as well. I couldn't have been more pleased. After we spoke, I thought of a couple more questions I wished I would have asked. I emailed Mr. Siebers and he responded right away. I am so very fortunate to have found such a knowledgeable and responsive attorney. In addition, his fees are incredibly fair and reasonable. In fact, I was charged twice as much by another attorney in the area who couldn't even answer my questions, ha! If only I had contacted Mr. Siebers first!!

Mr. Siebers provided us with answers to all our estate planning questions and efficiently handled our needs. We would highly recommend him to anyone in need of estate planning.

As a former trust officer and presently as a staff attorney for a catholic charity, I have worked with many, many attorneys over the past 26 years. I currently handle all of our organization's bequests and will commitments. I found Bill to be one of the easiest, most flexible and fair attorneys that I have ever worked with. He communicates well and is fully committed to getting a positive result for his clients at a fair price. He places his clients interest before his own, which is a rare commodity today. He made it very easy for several charities to jointly retain his services on very affIordable terms that would be unthinkable by many others. I would highly recommend Bill.

Mr. Siebers is representing our charitable organization, along with several others, in a legal issue that has been somewhat complicated involving a contested bequest. He has kept us well-informed every step of the way, has gone out of his way to meet his clients' needs, and has worked extremely hard to make sure that the wishes of the decedent are fulfilled. He responds very quickly to emails/phone calls. He is very mindful of the need for good stewardship of our charitable funds and has made recommendations that helped minimize our costs. The charities involved in this matter are spread all over the country. He has communicated through email, telephone calls, letters and conference calls so that we are all in agreement as he has worked through a host of challenges with this bequest. Our organization is very pleased with the services we have received from Mr. Siebers and his firm and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing the type of services he has provided for us. If we find ourselves involved in a contested estate in the same geographic region again, Mr. Siebers would be the first lawyer we would call to represent our organization.

Mr. Siebers was professional, efficient and most accomodating of his time for our charity in resolving issues with a bequest we received.

With much gratitude, I enter this endorsement for Bill Siebers and his team for their exceptional elder law services for my husband and me. I became aware of Bill’s specialized services through attending a series of his presentations, all of which were outstanding. With humor and compassion, he communicated his extensive knowledge of complex legal issues in easy-to-understand language. I sensed he was someone in whom I could place my trust and confidence. When we became his clients, he did not disappoint! Bill successfully led and navigated our Medicaid application in a straight-forward, efficient, effective and expedient manner, with the utmost of competency and compassion. He developed a realistic plan and kept us updated as the process unfolded. Consistently, he demonstrated his respect for our family and all those involved in matters pertaining to us. What a blessing to have such a positive man of deep faith on my family’s team of advocates and support! Indeed, he and his team graciously serve seniors and those who love them.

My mother was extremely nervous about the process of getting her affairs in order and making decisions about her future--and frankly, so was I. Bill made the first steps of this process easy for both of us to understand and we left feeling more confident that we can handle whatever the future brings. I appreciate having someone to help us navigate this often difficult journey, especially in terms of legal documents, applications for care we may need in the future, and making good decisions that are in the best interest of my mother. I wish we had done this sooner!
