When my financial planner suggested Wilson Law Group I was very reluctant because of experience with previous partners at this firm. Attorney Haslam and the current partners plus their staff at Wilson Law Group definitely made me feel not only welcome but gave me the assurance they wanted to help me. It was a very good decision to work with Wilson Law on my part and I’m great full to them.

John and his team did an excellent job of helping my wife and me put together a living trust for our families long term security. He has an easy going and easy to understand style while at the same time explaining all details and answering all questions.

Mr. Haslam helped me through probate for my father's untimely passing and create a living trust for my family. While clearly an expert in both fields, I particularly appreciated his ability to break down legalese into a plan of action I could understand. Further, he and his staff stay on top of deadlines and are generally wonderful in all of their correspondence. Mr. Haslam and his staff were the calm in the storm that was my father's passing, and they've lit the way for ensuring that my family's wishes are protected. I would say I am eternally grateful, but eternity isn't good for his line of work! Thank you Mr. Haslam, and staff.

John was a perfect fit for my needs.
I felt like he was meant to be there to help me re state my Trust which was 20 years old and from a different State.
It was easy to be with John and your staff very kind.

I was very fortunate to be introduced to John Haslam of Wilson Law group when I was decided to do my estate planning. He was highly recommended. Attorney Haslam met and spoke with me at length, for no charge, about my goals regarding my estate. It was a very good thing that I talked with him as estate law is complex and I might have made uninformed decisions that would have negatively impacted my assets if I had tried to do the planning myself.
When I asked Attorney Haslam to assist me he set up several meetings and listened carefully to the specific plan I had in mind. He then prepared several trusts for me (revocable and irrevocable). These are very detailed and fully cover every aspect of my estate. They follow my wishes exactly. I was surprised at how complex the trusts are. Absolutely nothing was omitted.
Attorney Haslam and his team helped me in transferring some of my assets into the trust. There were other steps I needed to take myself, such as opening a trust bank account. I was provided with a clear instruction letter on how to accomplish this, and a Certificate of Trust to present when needed. (My bank's legal review staff were impressed that the information I brought them was set up so clearly, in exactly the format they needed.)
The trusts were given to me in a portfolio with sections clearly marked so I could easily locate information. I was told by Attorney Haslam he wants me to contact him if I have questions or am uncertain about how to proceed on anything rather than have me worry about what to do or take an action that is contrary to the trusts requirements. He does not bill for this.
In addition to my trusts, the portfolio includes a number of other sections. One section is an emergency section for my trustees on the steps to take when I am no longer able to act on my own behalf. Instructions include encouragement to contact Attorney Haslam for any support they need.
The portfolio I was given also provides sections for a pour-over will, healthcare power of attorney, a living will, memorial instructions, distribution of personal effects, and other information. This is so helpful to have.
Attorney Haslam set me up with Legal Vault, which provides secure access to information in case there is a medical emergency. His law group also presents seminars which provide education for their clients and trustees.
Overall, I am reassured that every aspect of planning my estate has been taken care of because of Attorney Haslam's expertise. I know I may sound like a paid advertisement for him. I'm not. The cost of setting up my estate trusts was not insignificant, but in the big picture, protecting everything I've worked all my life for was so important to me that it was well worth it!

We have previously had a lawyer. He was difficult to work with and, in fact, our children asked us to change because they didn't understand him very well. We did ask my brother-in-law who they used. He suggested Wilson Law Office. When I contacted them, I asked for someone who was younger so that our children could work with the person after my spouse or I passed on.
All of us met with John Haslam at our house. The adult children asked questions as well as we asked questions. We were ALL very impressed with his responses and his easy to understand explanations. We could easily tell, he would be our choice for a lawyer. The first meeting was a consultation. But we hired him and had papers signed very soon after.

John made the complexities of estate planning easy to understand - which is saying something. He is thorough in his work but personal in his client relationships, which is comforting given the subject matter. I have, and will continue, to refer family, friends and colleagues to John.

John has been just a delight to work with. He is knowledgeable, helpful, open, and a trusted advisor. My experience in the past had tainted my view about the value of an attorney. John has totally changed that perception. Meeting John and working with him on our estate planning has been such a relief and I look forward to many years of a great relationship with John and Wilson Law.

We met with John to set up a trust or will. After thorough explanation of the differences, he let us make the best decision for our current situation with no hard sell. The rest of the process was smooth and easy. I am confident that this document will honor our wishes.

John took the time to explain the options, give examples of people who took different routes and why. Very knowledgeable and willing and able to explain things plainly. Left feeling comfortable we had a workable plan to help pass our wealth to our heirs.
