My husband and I just finished creating our estate plan with Andrew Brown and were so impressed with how smooth and easy the entire process was. He works on a fixed fee for the entire estate planning which includes handling the deed recordings for your property(ies).
Like many, we had put off creating our trust for years because of how daunting the entire process seemed. Upon hiring Andrew, he sent over a questionnaire which made it really easy to think through all the issues and topics on our own time. We then scheduled a call to go over the questionnaire, leaning on his extensive knowledge to

I was in need of an attorney to prepare my estate planning, which included: general power of attorney, health care directive, and trust. My estate is a little complex, as I own multiple properties, and one property is out of state. Also, I have designated multiple charities as beneficiaries.
I met with Andrew Brown of Essayli & Brown LLP. Andrew was very attentive, knowledgeable, and professional. Andrew handled the out of state property, and contacted all the charitable organizations to confirm proper entities at time of distribution.
Andrew is very thought provoking to foresee any issues that

My husband and I just hired Essayli & Brown to prepare our estate plan and I was extremely impressed with how seamless and efficient Andrew and staff were. We have been putting our estate planning off for years in fear of the massive amounts of paperwork and time we’d need to put into this process. Andrew sent a clear and concise questionnaire that my husband and I were able to complete in our own time. Once completed, Andrew called to walk us through the entire process and answer any questions we had. Andrew was extremely responsive and even made a last-minute change we requested just minutes

Losing a loved one is difficult enough without all the complicated legal issues that come afterwards. After talking to a number of other law firms, I'm so glad my wife and I called Essayli and Brown. Dealing with the IRS, Social Security, and the court system was a daunting task after our loved one passed, but once we got Essayli and Brown on board, all our estate planning issues were a breeze after that. They helped us through a very difficult and stressful time. If you have a wills, trust, or estate planning issues, these are the guys to call. Don't bothering calling around to all the other guys

I recently hired Andrew Brown to help us put together an Estate Plan for myself, our family felt that it was finally time to properly create an estate plan. It's something each of us has thought about, but it's always pushed to the back burner and procrastinated upon for some time. We knew nothing about this sort of thing, but Andrew was amazing with his explanations and with walking us through the process. Andrew was very accessible and responds quickly when we had questions via phone, text, and email. If you are looking for an estate planner, look no further, Andrew is the is the one.
