Estate Planning

In our 60s, we recently married and Sarah prepared new Wills and POAs. A little complex with separate families and finances. Sarah explained provisions of each document, gave examples of "what would happen if.." asked poignant questions that helped us think through our intent and made certain she understood it. The finished docs were thorough and stated what the law allows so Executors and POAs have that knowledge easily available. She spent time needed and never pushed us because of time constraints.

Sarah P. Wenzel is personable, pleasant, knowledgeable, professional, and patient. Sarah provided legal advice and great insight to help me make some tough decisions about my will. She added contingencies I had not even thought of. The prices were very fair. I highly recommend Sarah P. Wenzel and her staff for estate planning. Communications, and what was expected were very clear.

I highly recommend Sarah P. Wenzel for anyone wishing to start a complete estate planning program, but especially for those who not only wish to plan for themselves but who may have elderly family members with special needs and who need professional help in planning or amending their plans.

Even after one bad experience with a local attorney, we were unprepared for the thoroughness, competency, timeliness, & value displayed by Sarah and team. Our situation was one of gross revision and review of our trusts and entire estate plan and we could not be more pleased with our final product.
