I'd never had a lawyer, and I wanted personal, attentive service from an experienced attorney, and that's what he gave me. Jeff was knowledgeable, calm, relaxed, always responded to my emails or calls within 24 hours, often within minutes, and he was always punctual and prepared for our meetings and discussions. His retainer/contract was clear, detailed, and thorough, unlike some others I was offered by other law firms, whose agreements seemed vague and incomplete. His fees were affordable, reasonable, and he worked efficiently. My experience with Jeff showed me how essential it is to have quality, professional counsel, because only a good attorney truly understands the law, and you need that knowledge and guidance. I strongly recommend Jeff Hoffman Law, so definitely contact him. He will respect you, advise you well, and get the job done with care and completeness.

Eric Nyberg talked with me about my case on the phone for free, but mine was a fairly complicated case and I requested to come in to speak with him in person. He was willing to meet with me for a fee, which would be applied towards the fee if I went with them. Their fee was the same as the 3 other attorneys and a little higher than the 4th one. I was very impressed with the professionalism they showed in working with me from the very first phone call. As I went through the paperwork their firm was very helpful and responsive. I am sure they are busy because of the current economic situation and many of us need to file bankruptcy, but they were always responsive!! I was in a situation where I wanted expedited filing, they were reassuring that they would do all they can to help resolve the situation first so we don't have to cut in line of other clients that are waiting for the filing. It did get resolved and we were able to wait our turn. My case is now in the system and waiting to be finalized. I do occasionally wonder if they would have been able to help another friend of mine who went to talk to half a dozen of attorneys who were not able to help, and found one who knew the bankruptcy law better than others and had her case filed. In any case, I have been extremely happy with this firm and its service. 09/09/2010 update They continued to be professional and responsive. As I said, my case was complicated and quite a bit of follow up was required. They did respond a little bit slower, but not longer than 2 days.

I didn't want to take any chances, since this is also something you really want to get done right so I went with Colby because I felt strongly that Colby's depth of knowledge would ensure that my living trust was done correctly. Colby made the entire process easy, and set up several follow ups. He was thoughtful in executing certain parts that allotted for more flexibility if (or as) needed, and helped me better think through aspects that I would have otherwise glazed over as not important. I have, and continue to recommend Colby for Wills & Trusts as he did an exceptional job for me!
