This was our first time visiting a lawyer regarding the creation of an estate planning and trust. Almost immediately, Mr. Drobny made us feel very comfortable and after we left his office, we felt at ease and thinking that he could be our lawyer. He was very prompt in preparing the first draft and covered all areas, even areas that it had not occurred to us. We highly recommend him as "the best". He is very professional and compassionate at the same time. We went to him as a recommendation from a friend and we certainly made the right choice. You will not regret hiring him.

Mark was great to work with. He explained everything in a clear and concise manner, and completed our business in a timely way. He and his staff were very professional at all times . I would recommend his firm with out reservation, and I look forward to an ongoing relationship with them.

We had our first trust completed back in 2008 and were informed when the laws changed. We put off the update until the kids were out of the house. We met with Mark and discussed our current needs and he explained the revisions in the law and how they affected our situation. We were very happy (again) with the process, the staff, and glad for Mark's guidance.

I was referred to Mark from a trusted friend. He lived up to the high regard my friend advised. I particularly liked his calm and composed demeanor and his ability to explain and guide me through the entire living trust process and purpose.

In need of updating trust, Mr. Drobny was recommended and we were not disappointed. Cordial, professional, and knowledgeable. Documents quickly provided for review and final signing with clear advice for future follow up as needed. Couldn’t have asked for more.

Mark created our family trust in 2007. It was a pleasure working with him then and in the ensuing 15 years to keep it up-to-date with law changes and our own family changes. Very, very knowledgeable and personable.
