I’m not going to get into details here. I’ll just leave you with one thing. Would I ever go back and use this firm for other family matters? No, I would not. I didn’t have the confidence in them. That said, trust your gut.
Response from the owner:Hi B, We’re unable to identify any record of you in our system based on the name provided, which makes it difficult to determine whether you actually interacted with our firm. There is also a similarly named firm in the area, so it’s possible this review may be intended for another firm. If you did work with us, we’re open to discussing your concerns directly—please contact the office so we can verify and address them.

The phone consultation was clear, thoughtful and addressed all my questions . Thank you to Emily for taking the time to explain all the relevant legal issues for our family.
The consultation was very thorough and it is clear Rory Clark had a great deal of experience and knowledge, even if the situation may be time sensitive due to an illness or family emergency
Steve Bingham was a huge help in assisting my family with selling my mother’s house after her passing. I am out of state and the house needed some work. We used his guidance to sell the house quickly and for more money than expected.
Liz was very knowledgeable about the services provided by Elder Law Center. She was very patient and explain the process in depth.
