Client Reviews
My husband and I needed to update our Trust and had a few Complicated scenarios. We met with Don and he helped us find a simple solution that gave us more flexibility. Also, he gave us a book that he wrote to help with the legal ease. We used the book and found it very helpful and easy to translate. We signed all of our documents last week and worked with Michele, Paralegal and she was helpful too! We had a great experience and feel confident about the decisions we have made. We will definitely use Loose Law Group again!
This is one of the best attorney offices I have ever experienced. Everyone that works there is helpful and friendly, and the attorneys are all extremely competent. I have done everything from Wills to loans. They are thorough and prepared. They do not waste your time. They ask appropriate questions so that whatever you need them to do is done correctly the first time. Whatever they have handled for me has been done efficiently and professionally. I have recommended them to others, who have then recommended them to others. I highly recommend them.
I can’t say enough good things about the Loose Law Group. It’s not every day you set up a trust and Mr. Loose was wonderful in unchartered territory. From my first phone call while speaking with Rachel I knew I was in good hands. Mr. Loose was informative, kind, and so helpful with his extensive knowledge and experience. His assistant, Sara Vega, was wonderful too. She was always ready to help and guide through the process. I’m so glad I was led to this firm and I highly recommend.
