Client Testimonials

So professional, kind and helpful

Attorney Meyer and his staff were so professional, kind and helpful.

It was a smooth process from beginning to end. I highly recommend him and his team.

Five Stars! We had the best experience.

Five stars — Smooth and stress-free process

I highly recommend R.F. Meyer & Associates! Richard and his staff are a pleasure to work with and highly responsive.

Richard actively listened to my family’s needs, thoroughly answered our questions & made recommendations that met our needs for Will, Wholly Discretionary Trust, Living Will and Power of Attorney.

Richard, Mary & Aaron provided a quick turnaround with all documents (draft/final). Aaron traveled to the hospital to complete documents/notarize them. The office filed all originals and returned all applicable originals, and also provided two sets of copies in binders, along with electronic copies of all final documents.

The process was smooth and stress-free. The staff was available for follow up calls and provided great direction and guidance to ensure everything was completed. Fees/costs were quoted upfront as an all-inclusive package, including follow up questions and assistance and were reasonable.

I would work with Meyer & Associates again!

Extremely helpful and accessible

We are so grateful for all of your help.

We worked closely with Richard Meyer and Mary Sharp throughout this process, and we really appreciated how accessible they were. They provided step by step guidance and were so patient and helpful throughout.

Their professionalism was of the highest order. We can’t image going to anyone but them for help.

We are deeply thankful for their assistance and kindness at this time and would recommend them without hesitation.

Ready to enjoy our newly ’empty nest’ after help from Richard Meyer

Our children are now fully grown and our legal documents were very outdated. We weren’t sure what to do and then we found Richard Meyer.
He not only helped us update our will and living will, but carefully listened to our situation and concerns. From there, he also suggested a few other key documents we hadn’t even thought of — like a healthcare power of attorney and a revocable trust to help protect our assets from probate.
He and his team also patiently stepped us through the complexities of ensuring our assets are properly titled to minimize tax exposure and avoid legal entanglements.
This all will prevent a mess for our adult children to deal with upon our death and, most importantly, gave us tremendous peace of mind.
We feel so relieved that Richard Meyer helped us plan ahead so we can now just enjoy empty nesting and know that whatever comes, we will be protected and prepared for the future.

Wonderfully convenient, professional experience

Working with Mr. Meyer and his associates in establishing my trust and other final documents has been a streamlined process.
Mr. Meyer and his associates answered all of my and my successor trustees’ questions. Explanations were thorough and clear.
The ability to carry out everything online and by phone was wonderfully convenient.
Thanks again for this professional experience.

Excellent communication, not in a rush with us

Richard is amazing! With safety concerns about my parents, he cleared the air for me and on their behalf. I left our 30 minute discussion feeling much better about next steps. He’s an excellent communicator; he was not in a rush to finish our discussion; and provided options to present to my parents. R.F. Meyer is intelligent, credible and very well spoken. You will not leave the discussion with unanswered questions or concerns.
