Marc was so helpful in personalizing my Revocable Living Trust. He is extremely knowledgeable, personable, organized and precise in making sure you and your Trustees understand every document needed to help "fund" your plan. I am very impressed and would highly recommend Marc to anyone that wants expert advice in setting up your personalized "Will" or "Living Trust'. I give Marc a 5 Star! Carolyn B 1/08/16

Marc put together a living trust for me and was very careful to explain everything about the trust to me as we made the required decisions. The final document is very well crafted and presented in an understandable manner (yes, I read every word of it). Our follow up meeting to correct a couple of birthdates was very easy as well. Marc also crafted a 'life partner' agreement for my partner and me. It was something unique, but he did a good job covering both my interests and hers very careful

Marc Carlson of Carlson Law Office provided a great service for us. Marc prepared a Revocable Living Trust for our family and he did a great job of explaining and outlining the provisions of the trust and how it all worked. He offered many different suggestions as to how to best structure the document and spent a lot of time making sure we understood how it all worked and what our options were. We are very pleased with the final outcome of the trust, how it works and the cost to complete the document was less than we expected. We would recommend Marc to anyone who needs estate planning advice and solutions.
Thanks Marc for a job well done.

My husband and I have been contemplating our NEED to set up a Will or Trust for years. After attending a seminar on Living Trusts that was presented by Marc Carlson, we knew we NO longer could procrastinate. Not only did we realize how critical it was to have things in order, we knew we found the right person to help us understand and implement a comprehensive Estate Plan. Marc is exceptionally organized to the last detail. He truly cares in what he does by his eagerness to make sure we understood the whole plan. I would also add that he has a presence about him that makes you feel like you have known him for years. Marc is a superior professional. Nataly 2015

Estate planning is very complicated, and in my case I knew very little about what was involved. I needed someone to guide me through the process of putting together a plan that suited my needs (to include having a plan that was comprehendible.) Following Mr. Carlson's well-defined process, in just a few effective meetings I had the plan that I was looking for. After it was developed, and as I reviewed it, Mr. Carlson remained very helpful in providing clarification and answers to my questions.

Barbara and I were extremely pleased with our experience working with Marc on our estate plan development. For some time, we have debated whether to establish a trust or just update our wills. Marc showed us the advantages of the trust creation, and how many advantages there are to the trust. We could not be more pleased with the quality of service, quality of documentation and the overall value of the product and advice we received. Marc's knowledge of the process made us very comfortable and he took the time to explain in detail our particular options and how each one would benefit our particular situation. His communications to us were easy to understand and he was always responsive to our questions. It is a rare thing in today's world to have a lawyer or any other professional give you all the time required to understand something without making you feel rushed into a decision. Marc certainly always made us comfortable. His knowledge of the estate planning process is superior, and it is obvious after his long experience, he still maintains a desire to learn more and to keep abreast of all current changes in laws and processes affecting his clients.{para}In addition to his knowledge and professionalism, Marc has an easy style that immediately makes you comfortable. He was always courteous and non-intimidating, and made us feel that he truly wanted our plan to be ours, not what he thought it should be. The documentation we received was very comprehensive, and included many "how to" needed to fund and complete the plan.{para}Overall, we would highly recommend Marc to anyone seeking advice and help on estate planning. You won't go wrong if you choose Marc.{para} {para} {para}Regards,

Marc was very helpful and professional guiding me, a total neophyte, through the trust process. I felt very confident in his expertise and his honesty and would not hesitate to call on him again.
