Cyndy Fenninger and Perry Coumas lead a firm clients trust with sensitive estate matters. Most describe straightforward consultations where attorneys explain documents in plain language, making overwhelming processes manageable. Staff-especially Valencia at the front desk-create a comfortable environment. One early interaction with a receptionist fell short on courtesy, though the broader pattern shows consistent warmth across the team. Reviewers name specific strengths: Cyndy's 30 years of experience, willingness to work through complex family dynamics, and follow-up care through probate. Clients appreciate that the firm guides them from initial planning through execution, with attorneys making time for thorough questions and walking families through paperwork during loss.

Reviewers consistently praise Elyse and her team for navigating complex real estate closings with professionalism and clear communication, turning stressful lender issues into smooth outcomes. Recent complaints centre on operational delays: fund transfers taking longer than promised, missed appointment times, staff arriving unprepared, and lack of modern remote closing capability. Long-term clients remain loyal, but newer experiences suggest inconsistency.
