I've used attorney King in the past on a few occasions one of them being handling my father's probate, when I say he did an excellent job and went above and beyond I mean it. It's been six years since he handled the probate for me and to date nothing has resurfaced so everything was done correctly. Attorney King provided me with car titles he handled bills and everything I did very little. He also provided me with electronic and paper files of everything that was done. I was so impressed with his professionalism and attention to detail that I've hired him again to put together my will & trust. Attorney King is very forthright and has tons of intergity. I forgot to mention the pricing is very budget friendly.

Attorney King, listened, was thoughtful and knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone who has a legal issue.

I think that Attorney Kings professional expertise took an off track guardianship case and put it back on course. He was attentive and patient with our concerns and in a very positive manner assured my sister and me he would resolve the case. He did. I would gladly recommend Attorney King to anyone who needs help. Thanks Attorney King. Dewey Chaffin

Great probate attorney

It is without reservation that I recommend attorney Philip King to any person seeking professional legal services. Mr. King represented me in a shared parenting/child custody case. After going without legal representation for several of my court hearings, I was able to eventually obtain legal representation. As soon as Mr. King began working on my case the dynamics of the case began to change. Mr. King was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had regarding my case. He was prompt in returning all of my phone calls and emails and never made me feel rushed or “blown off”. He diligently explained the legal process to me and thoroughly helped to process all options available for me to consider. Mr. King’s gentle and kind spirit helped to ease the pain of one of the most emotionally challenging times of my life. He was extremely sensitive to my feelings and always allowed me to express my frustrations and concerns without judgment or prejudice. Overall, the legal services I received from attorney Philip King were beyond measure. Mr. King’s level of professionalism, attention to detail, gentle spirit, fairness, and integrity allows me to say without hesitation that he is one of the BEST attorneys in Columbus, OH. I would strongly recommend him to anyone needing legal services in the future. He truly stands by his motto “Where Service and Integrity are King”.

Great advice, prompt response time. A good ally during a tough time.

Wonderful firm to work with and experts in the area of adoption, surrogacy, and assisted reproduction. Would recommend to anyone needing assistance with their family law matters or looking to build a family via adoption or surrogacy. I really appreciate the personal and caring relationship they foster with their clients.

I referred a friend and neighbor to the Law firm of Doty and Obenour. She needed to file for legal separation from her husband and with her ethnic back ground she was unsure of laws in the U.S. My friend and neighbor kept me apprised and thanked me for referring Hannah Botkin Doty and Abbie Obenour for guiding her in the right direction and helping her make the right decisions. They are kind, patient and truly care what is the best interest of their clients. For any legal service contact them and they will guide you with their vast knowledge of the law. Thank you for taking care of my friend!

I came to The Law Firm of Doty and Obenour in Upper Arlington to help with a business formation for me last year, as well as other legal matters related to one of my businesses since then. Hannah is the epitome of professionalism and very, very thorough. I would definitely recommend her to any of my family or friends! Keep up the great work!

I would NOT recommend this person for any of your legal needs.

I had the opportunity to work with Brian. He is an excellent attorney who has a great understanding of the law. Brian has a heart for the law and he represents his clients with integrity. If you are looking for an excellent attorney, Brian Johnson is it!

Mr. Pickett is a tremendous counselor. He takes the time to understand a client's problems, analyze the same, and create well-conceived solutions.

I have known Mr. Pickett since 1992/93, and had the occasion to work on several projects with him. Since he moved his practice to Ohio, he and I have consulted on several matters, and on that basis I believe he is a mature and careful lawyer, deserving of an "A" rating.

Patrick is one of the finest attorneys I have ever meet and had the privilege of having on the other side.

Samuel Pipino is an excellent trial lawyer with a superior reputation. Respectfully submitted.

I met Chris Vonau through a trusted friend. I was very, very pleased after our first visit to find that Chris was very helpful and very knowledgeable about the area of wills and family trusts. Chris made this process exceptionally easy to understand and even easily to navigate through the concerns we had. My wife and I have had several dealings family dealings related to distributing the assets of a loved ones. This is was very difficult without the assistance of the a competent attorney and the products that a firm like Chris Vonau provides. I would strongly recommend Chris Vonau.

We cannot say enough positive about Decker Vonau, Chris Vonau in particular. The customer service we've received from this firm has been above and beyond and always top notch. Everything from the front desk receptionist to Chris himself has always been very professional, efficient, effective, and helpful! Thanks Decker Vonau, LLC Attorneys at Law we appreciate all you do for us for our business and us personally.

It was a very good interaction that was informative, supportive, and pain-free. I would recommend this agency. I rate it a 5.

I don’t have any data to support this but, I would assume that when most people seek out a probate attorney, it’s their first encounter with such an attorney. Take that scenario and couple it with it being an emotional one for the person, the spouse (when applicable), and the family members. While dealing with time sensitive maters during an event that touches so many family matters, a person needs an attorney that is ethical, skilled, kind, and able to explain matters, even when not asked. During my search for an attorney, I spoke to more than one attorney at Decker Vonau, LLC; and each attorney, was very patient and very thorough when answering my questions and explaining what courses of actions were best. Once I retained Decker Vonau, LLC, I partnered with Chris to work on matters concerning the estate. He has all of the characteristics that you need when working through a situation like this one - ethical, smart, thorough, and compassionate. He was able to explain, in detail, why we had to do things a certain way and what was expected before they occurred. Chris was a great steward through this process and I recommend him and his firm to anyone who has to go through the process.

We highly recommend Chris Vonau. He takes the time to explain everything, and his advice was incredibly helpful. Our situation was resolved quickly thanks to Chris. We are very grateful, and we will most-definitely use this firm for any future needs!

They explained everything and took the time to make sure we understood our options. The process was done quickly and without any issues or surprises. We will definitely use Epling Law for any future needs.

We had a great experience working with Epling Law to draft our estate planning documents. We were able to meet via Zoom and Aaron and his team were available to answer all our questions during the drafting process. They also sent us a book on estate planning. After signing our documents, we received everything in a nice binder with further information on personal estate planning and documenting.

Had a great experience with Aaron and his staff. They completed our estate documents in a timely manner and answered all our questions. Highly recommended.

Aaron did a great job taking care of our estate needs. He is very proffesional and responsive. I would highly recomend him.

Aaron and Anna were great to work with while completing my will. They explained everything and made sure I left with no questions. The whole process was quick.

My wife and I completed all our legal documentation with the DuPont team. They were professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and courteous. The work was done quickly and smoothly. We enjoyed the team very much. We go back anytime we need them. They’re the best!

I originally called and spoke with Greg DuPont regarding a business document question. We determined that it was not necessary to alter the document and since then he has helped us draw up our wills, power of attorneys, organize a trust, etc. Their process for estate planning was painless and very thorough. We are grateful for their help in this area and I am certain we will be contacting them in the future if we have need of other legal council.

I came to Braden for legal help with my mothers estate. He filed a civil suite against my brother and sister. They did not respond and a magistrate ruled in my favor. 100% win. All we had to do is go for damages. I had presented to Braden over $100,000 in damages. We had the hearing for the damages and we went from a 100% win to a 100% loss. I kept trying to get a hold of his office for an appeal and no one would return my call. I final got a response after the time to appeal had passed. I did most of the work and he lost the case. I still am paying for this.

I am very pleased with their Quality of service and quick responsiveness. I highly recommend them

I had a great experience. The attorney and support staff that I worked with were professional, explained everything and made sure that I understood the process. I would recommend them and will use them again should the need arise.

My experience with AllerStallings could not have been better. The attorneys, paralegal, financial advisor and office personnel were professional, knowledgeable and there for me during the process of setting up my trusts. They all provided that personal touch and genuine concerns for my individual needs. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone in need of elder law services.

John S. and his staff were professional and polite and did an excellent job of explaining the estate planning process to us. I would definitely recommend John, as he took the time to explain everything in detail so we understood our various options.

Helpful, easy to process information and I feel moving me in a good direction.

It was good when Nicole was there. A year ago. Lawyer has changed.

This is an estate/trust/planning firm that delivers on their promises. They understand that it isn't a 1 time document/titling process, but a lifetime and even generational relationship. I trust my clients, friends and family with AlerStallings.

    My experience with AllerStallings could not have been better. The attorneys, paralegal, financial advisor and office personnel were professional, knowledgeable and there for me during the process of setting up my trusts. They all provided that personal touch and genuine concerns for my individual needs. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone in need of elder law services.

    John S. and his staff were professional and polite and did an excellent job of explaining the estate planning process to us. I would definitely recommend John, as he took the time to explain everything in detail so we understood our various options.

We worked with George Lovett to establish living trusts for both my wife and I. Working with George and his team has been one of the best legal experiences we have had. He took the time to clearly explain all of our options while recommending additional steps to protect our estate and secure our diverse assets for future generations. Our process was straightforward, seamless and clearly explained from start to finish. We highly recommend Lovett and House for all of your estate planning needs.

My husband and I hired Lovett and House for our estate planning. George was very informative and helped us understand the importance of a living trust vs a will. I would recommend this law firm to anyone who is in need of an estate planner.

When I met Mr. House and Lisa, they were welcoming and accommodating. They helped me navigate through the very rough time of losing my mother and settling her estate. Mr. House provided professional and courteous service.

My husband and I worked with George Lovett to create a living trust. Mr. Lovett asked questions to help us determine how we wanted to handle our assets and he explained everything thoroughly in an easy to understand manner. We now have a living trust established and the peace of mind that comes with knowing our children will understand our wishes and know how to proceed when they need to on our behalf. For my husband and I, we know we're taking care of our children and that's a good feeling. I highly recommend George Lovett if you are considering a living trust.

When it was time to establish an Estate plan for my wife and myself, I was referred to Lovett and House by a trusted colleague. Mr. House and his staff were 100% professional and responsive, and provided the time and attention we needed to make sure we understood all of the pros, cons, and implications on our estate planning so that we were able to make informed decisions. I recommend this firm enthusiastically!

When I met Mike at Gudorf Law Group about my estate planning, he was very helpful and listen to my needs and concerns and took the time to explain ever aspect of the process. In the meeting with Megan she review all the final documents and put it in terms a layman could understand. I'm grateful that Gudorf Law Group was there to help and walk me through the whole thing.

On June 23, I had a meeting with Megan concerning an update in my Trust with Gudorf attorneys. Virtually ANY option was covered to my complete satisfaction. Basically, no stone unturned. I highly recommend Gudorf Law Group for any attorney needs anyone may have.

I've consulted with Ted on clients that have advanced estate planning needs for tax efficient trusts on both income and estate tax savings. Ted both has a solid process and the technical tax skills. Highly recommend Ted and his team.

Used Gudorf Law Group to set up a trust for my Father's estate. Was a complicated process but was patiently lead through it. All the staff from top to bottom were friendly and professional and I would use them again. I also like the system of being charged a flat rate up front for all services as opposed to being charged hourly over time. Granted, this is the first time I have needed legal services but they were highly recommended to me and I would do the same.

The Gudorf Law Group, and Megan and Mike in particular, were very helpful and responsive regarding revoking our out-of-date trust and completely revamping our estate plan. Going into retirement, I now have peace of mind regarding our estate and our legacy. Going forward, I will continue to work with Megan and Mike to keep our plan up to date.
