It was a genuine pleasure working with Nielsen Law for our estate planning needs. They were patient and thorough in answering all of our questions and guided us through the entire process step by step, in the end providing us total peace of mind that our children will be protected and well cared for should the unthinkable happen. I highly recommend Nielsen Law for all of your estate planning needs.

Your knowledge and experience in this field were invaluable and I am grateful for all the time and effort you invested in making sure my estate plan was comprehensive, thorough, and tailored to my specific needs.

It was time to update the will . . . you know that laborious document that you have really no idea of what your signing? Yep, thats it! Thanks to my bankers recommendation, I contacted Liz and her partners. One of the greatest gifts my father gave me was most of the information for his final wishes, where all the money was and that his lawyer was ready to execute his will. His investments were much more complicated than mine but I still knew it was time to update. My objectives to make this process was: * to make settling my estate as easy as possible for my children * avoid possible tax consequences. So, I got to work and heres what I experienced. Youll probably start with Frances and he kept me organized regarding appointments and initial responsibilities throughout the project. Then the first meeting with the oh so pleasant, friendly and handholding Liz, As soon as the meeting started, I knew this was going to be a pleasant experience. Can you imagine? She asked for my expectations, and then her paralegal and associate prepared and action plan for me to gather the appropriate documents, names, addresses, etc. Check! When that was done, they got to working on the document. Of course there was all the legalese but also a flow chart that incorporated all my requests, accounts and steps to complete. I know understand what is going to happen. After signing the will, this is the part that made me happiest, they gave me a folder with a list of items that needed to be wrapped up. The folder included all the info institutions would need to know or have to complete the process. THEN, when I finish my to do list . . . theyre going to give me a notebook and is going to go over the information with my children and spouses to make sure they understand the process. I havent received the notebook yet, but Ive been told it will include tab with all the sections that my children will need to wrap up my estate with the documents theyll need. I know, your children, beneficiaries and executor elated! A couple of tips from me to you: 1. Start communicating with your children, beneficiaries before beginning this process. 2. Start gathering documents now -- birth certificates, marriage certificates, divorce decrees, real estate, contact info, insurance policies, banking statements, passports, etc. 3. One item Ive yet to do, but know from experience, is collecting all passwords into a vault and give the executor the info. Dont delay doing this important task. No beneficiary or executor EVER said, Im so glad XXX didnt have a current will. I wish you luck with this experience but if you work with Nielsen Law, you wont need luck, youll have professionals holding your hand throughout the process and longer!

We were very pleased with the ease of restating our trust and the resulting final documents. Liz was very thorough and the process was very clear from the initial questionnaire through the final review. Nielsen Law is also proactive about following up with us to ensure that our action items are completed to ensure all accounts and assets are properly assigned to the appropriate entity.

Dealing with this type of matter was a first for me; I was unaware of how the process (of executing a will) worked. Thankfully, the people at Nielsen Law are patient, thoughtful, kind, and courteous. They walked me through every step, managed expectations, answered all of my questions, and empowered me to execute the last wishes of a loved one. I highly recommend this team.

Liz and her team are the best of all worlds: caring, attentive, hyper-organized and exceptionally thorough. They guided us through the painstaking process of making a will with confidence and kindness. Liz is warm and easy to talk to. She also really knows her stuff! Liz simplified complex legal language and used real-life situations to explain how concepts like financial and medical powers of attorney work. I can t speak highly enough of Liz s team. Elizabeth and Cort verified key details, edited drafts, and responded to emails and questions right away. They were diligent, meticulous and wonderful to work with. We ll be recommending Nielsen Law to friends and family in the future!

We hired Nielsen Law firm because of Lizs legal and educational credentials. She has proven to be a very talented attorney who provided the most up-to-date legal advice and highly professional service. We felt very comfortable working with her on our Trust and Wills. We felt she is honest, trustworthy, fully understood our needs, and thoroughly addressed them. Her staff is also excellent. Quickly responded to questions, always a short turn around time, professional, and helpful. Great Team! Great Law firm! Highly recommend.

I would highly recommend Liz to anyone who is looking to create a family legacy plan or to ensure the simplest forms of wills or trusts can be created for asset or family protection. No matter how easy or complicated you think yours might be, prepare now so your family doesnt have to deal with it later!

Liz and her staff helped me set up my sons estate plan and we were very impressed with the ease of the process. Ive seen friends struggle to help their adult children when there have been medical issues and I wanted to be sure that if he became ill or was injured we wouldnt have any legal problems now that he is over 18. Liz had a phone call with my son and then we went in to sign the documents, which included a will, powers of attorney, a living will and a HIPAA document, and maybe a few others. It was great and my son felt well represented. Now I have one less thing to worry about!

We used the Nielsen Firm to set up trusts, Medical POA, etc since we are expecting our first child. It was abundantly clear this was their expertise. They asked all the questions we have never considered and feel fully protected and prepared now that everything is order. Great communication, reasonable fees, excellent work. I would highly recommend.

Liz and her team were very welcoming, professional and demonstrated exceptional attention to detail. I was most impressed with the follow through after the documents (Trust, LLC) were completed. She communicated with my accountant and financial advisor, ensured that appropriate retitling was completed and setup follow up appointments in the future to confirm that the estate planning was all in order. I had never experienced this comprehensive level of service from other estate attorneys. I highly recommend her!

We could not be happier with our interactions with Nielsen Law and would readily recommend the firm to family and friends for their estate planning. Liz and Meg understood our concerns and created our Living Trust, Wills and other estate documents to meet those concerns. And just as important to us was that we finalized documents that we actually understood. Just today we received electronic copies of those documents and I have had a very positive phone conversation with Meg to make certain that I understood what I needed to do to move assets to our Trust. 100% positive

I find Liz very easy to work with. She listens, is easy to understand and is prompt in responding to any email/phone call. She is willing to take time to review issues previously discussed that are still unclear to me. Her flow charts she provides for the processes we are working on are most helpful, especially in sharing info with my family. She is quickly becoming a member of the Team of professionals I want to create for helping me deal with issues in the future. High 5 for Liz!!
