Ask for David Cook if you are looking to get a Will or Trust set in place. He has been doing this for a very long time and knows his stuff! He's not only professional and knowledgeable in his field but a heck of a nice guy!

Have used Mr Constance twice to clear up some real estate issues with business I owned. He was always professional, articulate, and solved my problem both times expediently.

Bradley Constance is extremely unqualified and lacks basic communication skills. Or perhaps it’s just a lack of intellect. Unfortunately, he does not do his due diligence and is significantly unprepared and unpredictable on any case he is given.
Do not know how he stumbled upon a career like this. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT HIRE.

Brad is extremely knowledgeable about legal affairs. He's honest, he works hard, and he is an all-around trustworthy man. Definitely the guy you want for legal advice/work.
