After my husband and I had our two kids, we realized we needed to create a will since we wanted to ensure our kids were taken care of and ended up with the people we wanted to have raise them should something happen to us. I googled wills and researched different law offices before I found Justin. I was impressed first with his website; the information provided there is clear, understandable to a lay person, and includes the important stuff, namely a clear price (and a reasonable one at that with the New Parents Package)! It was remarkably easy to schedule time with him, and he immediately provided us a little prework to do before the meeting, which set clear expectations for what we were going to discuss and accomplish during that meeting. The initial meeting was informative. Justin is easy to talk to and a clear communicator who is willing to answer all of the questions, so we left with a firm understanding of the options we had in front of us and the next steps to get there. Once we provided Justin our decisions, he quickly drew up the paperwork, which we could review via email, and then we came in to sign it all after we completed our review and agreed it was finalized. Prior to the signing, Justin provided even more information for a couple additional decisions we needed to consider prior to coming in, so we were never caught off-guard, nor did we feel like we were making uninformed choices. During the signing, Justin clearly and concisely summed up what we were signing for and ensured we truly understood the decisions we were making, but that we could also make changes in the future at any time. Then, we walked away with all the documents signed, organized in a high-quality binder, with clear instructions on what to do with each section going forward. Every step of the way, I felt confident that I understood my choices and the necessary decisions. Justin was professional and knowledgeable, but also caring and patient. I would recommend his services to anyone. read more

While estate planning is something most of us know we need, and most of us put off far to long because of the unknown, expense, allowing all our personal details to be seen, and dealing with "lawyers", (it's really not a dirty word!), we needed to do it none the less. Our journey began with a Goggle search of the area's top rated estate planning attorneys. Based on the search we decided to narrow it down to two attorneys, one of which was Justin Jeppesen, the other, we were to find out, being Justin's mentor. A little back story on the "allowing all our personal details to be seen" that we mentioned earlier. While I understood, or at least thought I did, my wife's uncomfort with seeing an attorney and baring all, I didn't fully "get it" until the first meeting with Justin, and that's where this review really begins. Justin made us, and more importantly, my wife very comfortable from the beginning. He did this with his natural easy manor. He's a down to earth guy that doesn't come off has "I have a skill and knowledge you need" but as a guy who wants to help you get where you want, and need to be, where our personal affairs where concerned. Towards the end of the initial meeting there was no need to meet with another attorney, we were both at easy and decided that Justin would be the one to lead us through this odyssey. Make no mistake, there's a lot of details, legalese, and decisions to make during this process. Justin takes the time to walk you through those details. He's patient, that became quickly apparent has we would sometimes ask for something to be explained again, and again, as we tried to "wrap our head around" a term, concept, or very personal decision that needed to be made. I'm also very confident that he'll take very good care of those who we've chosen as our successor trustees to walk them through those final decisions. Here's the bottom line, we are very pleased with Justin, and we would, and have recommended him to others and will continue too. read more

After the birth of our first child we knew that we needed to have a will in place. However, the thought of writing a will was so overwhelming we put it off for years.When our second child was born this year and I knew we couldn't put it off any longer. I wasn't sure where to start so I searched Google for local estate lawyers and found Justin. His website was clear and didn't bombard me with a bunch of "lawyer talk" that I didn't understand, which gave me confidence that we could, in fact, get a will in place without too much hassle. Meeting Justin in person was just as much of a pleasant experience. His demeanor is much the same as his website - clear and straightforward. He provided us with worksheets before our initial meeting that prompted my husband and I discuss what we wanted for our children and our belongings should anything happen to us. During our meeting Justin reviewed the information we had written on the worksheets, provided some explanations and suggestions, all while explaining everything in simple terms that we could understand. After the meeting Justin drafted our documents and emailed them to me so I could review them as time permitted, which was a big plus considering my hectic schedule. When questions arose, Justin was just an email away. Once our documents were finalized and signed, Justin continued to provide valuable insight into estate planning by recommending several financial advisers and provided several documents including an inventory sheet for our belongings. I would recommend Justin to anyone who is hesitant to start the estate planning process. He made it quick and painless. Additionally, his new parent package made it affordable. Thanks for the help Justin! I feel much better knowing my children will be taken care of in the event we can't be there for them. read more

My spouse and I had Justin Jeppesen create an estate plan for us. This was our fourth time doing estate planning, so we were not brand-new to the process. We had a basis for comparison. How did we choose Justin? We wanted our financial coach to ensure that the new estate plan and financial plan would be properly integrated. We had our financial coach interview several attorneys in the area, and he felt that Justin was the best fit for us. After our financial coach's recommendation of Justin, we took advantage of Justin's complimentary consultation. From that consultation, we were very happy with Justin's approach and demeanor, so we "hired" Justin. Justin did not modify our existing estate plan documents. Instead, he created a new set of estate plan documents to replace them. In the process, he interviewed us and came up with some great ideas for changes to our estate plan. These were important changes that we had not realized we needed to consider. Justin was an excellent communicator. He clearly explained the things that we did not initially understand. When he sent us the entire set of drafts of the estate plan documents, he also included a very useful master document. It included the purpose of each estate plan document in plain English. Justin demonstrated that he keeps updated on Idaho law and federal law. He educated us on some recent changes in law that came into effect after we signed our old estate plan several years ago. This built our confidence in our new estate plan and in Justin. We recommend Justin for your estate planning needs! read more

Our will and Trust were 30 years old and needed to be updated. We had called another Attorney in the Boise area to get a quote. Their price was rather high and so we have been putting it off. Recently, a family member who had utilized Justin's services highly recommended him and told us that his website listed his services and prices. I went to the website and was pleasantly surprised with his prices. In our experience with Justin, we found: * He made us feel at ease right from our first email conversations and setting up an appointment * He was friendly, approachable and easy to talk to * Justin was able to explain the different aspects of the will/trust simply and clearly * He offered counsel, suggestions and guidance when requested and as needed * He did not make us feel ignorant, but answered our questions with both grace and compassion * Justin quoted us a price for what we requested to have done, and then stuck to that price even though he had to do more as our Trust was so outdated * He was timely and had our products completed quickly In the midst of the difficulty of putting our estate in order, we had a great experience and feel good about the guidance and products that Justin provided. Thank You Justin! Mike and Nancy read more

It had been many years since my wife and I had updated our Will and Estate Planning documents, and we were in need of a good attorney to help us navigate these unchartered waters. Another advisor of ours recommended Justin Jeppesen, and we could not have been happier. From the very first moment we met Justin, we knew we had found our "legal home" and a valued friend. We felt completely comfortable and at ease with Justin, who patiently put up with our many questions and requests for clarification. Justin gently prodded us when appropriate, as we failed to follow through on requested information, yet we never felt pushed or hurried. He graciously made changes and accommodations as we worked through the legal landscape, clearly explaining each section and document along the way. Justin was very professional from the get-go, with the end result being not only our fully executed estate planning documents, but the sense of peace and confidence my wife and I have in knowing that we've been placed in good hands. I highly recommend Justin at Jeppesen Law for all of your estate planning needs. - Mike and Nancy Youngblood read more

After THINKING about a Will for many years we finally decided to get one done. My husband and I have a 19 year old and a 10 year old and after watching people around us pass with no Will in place we decided it was time. We did not want people fighting over our daughter or our estate. We were referred to Jeppesen Law. We called Justin and made an appointment. He made everything so easy. The initial appointment was very informative. A LOT of information and a bit over whelming, thinking about death is just terrible. However with that said Justin took the time to answer ALL of our many questions and made sure that we understood every little detail. Within a week he had our Will finished and ready to be signed. It was amazing how easy he made everything. Even after all the paperwork was signed and we had to do some followup with our Insurance company's and banks he was there to answer our questions and make sure all our paperwork was correct. We have given his information to others that are looking for a Will. Justin Jeppesen is great and what he does. My husband and I would recommend him a thousand times over! read more

After moving home to Idaho from California, I struggled with finding an attorney who could mesh my estate planning needs with two homes in different states . I did not want to burden my older siblings with complications of managing my estate upon my death. A long-time friend in Boise referred me to Justin. He quickly identified the things I needed to accomplish and he found a huge error on my part. I had not placed one of my home's in my original Trust after a refinance situation many years ago. He walked through my documents patiently with me and explained the reasons behind his recommendations. I truly felt he was looking out for my best interest. Justin is very knowledgeable and reasonably priced with quality outcomes. He is conscientious to not add work and expense where it isn't necessary. Justin is resourceful and answers questions/makes clarifications without a time clock. I highly recommend Jeppesen Law, PLLC, for your estate planning needs! (In a nutshell....friendly, knowledgeable, thorough, patient, reasonably priced, and trustworthy)! Holly W. read more

I had an out of state trust when I moved to Idaho several years ago, but knew I had things that needed updating. I did some research and discovered Justin Jeppesen Law, and boy am I happy I did. The first time I sat down with him I was an emotional wreck and had been dealing with unpleasant family issues. Justin was patient and guided me through the whole process. I found him so easy to talk to, which made the whole process so much easier. In that initial visit we updated some things to be compliant with Idaho laws, and I also made changes to my beneficiaries, which was the emotional part. Recently I made a couple other changes, which Justin guided me through with some excellent advice. His ability to understand my personal situations and make the most perfect and logical recommendations was outstanding. I am extremely grateful to Justin. Not only is he an excellent lawyer he's also a wonderful human being. I have referred him to a couple friends of mine, I hope they take my advice and meet with Justin. read more

We had a great experience. Justin took the time to really educate us about our options regarding planning our will and trust and helped to guide us to the best choices for our family. Justin is very personable and we were immediately comfortable with him. He is very professional and knowledgeable- always made time to thoroughly answer our questions. I/we appreciated, as a fairly young mother/couple, that Justin has a growing family of his own and shared that with us. This made us feel very comfortable right away as he is living what he is helping clients with himself (aka, you will not in the typical stuffy environment you would expect in this situation). I will and have already recommended him to friends and family as his location is convenient and comfortable, fair pricing, and as he demonstrated absolute professionalism and expertise in all interactions. read more

We came from California and needed our Estate Plan from 1989 updated to conform to Idaho law and be less complicated. Our financial planner recommended Justin Jeppesen to us and we were glad he did. In our interview with Justin we found him to be very cordial and sympathetic to our situation. We developed a strong confidence in Justin from the interview and hired him to provide us with the necessary updates and revisions. He reviewed our plan and suggested quite a few revisions that really simplified it while still taking care of all the intricacies that had been involved. He took time to answer all of our questions and was available to us throughout the process. We highly recommend Justin to anyone who needs any part or the whole Estate Plan including Living Wills, Family Trusts, powers of attorney and healthcare directives. Neil J. and Nevada L. read more

Creating an estate plan through Jeppesen Law was a very satisfying experience. Justin Jeppesen is pleasant, easy to work with, thoroughly knows trust and estate planning law, and is very well organized. In his system, the client is given a basic estate plan as a starting point and through repeated visits and online correspondence, the plan is tailored to the client's specific needs and desires. We feel that our final trust product, which includes several documents, nicely addresses the distribution of our assets, states our medical and death wishes, and meets all Idaho and federal legal requirements. This was accomplished for a flat fee that, in our experience, was very competitive. In addition, Justin Law is the contact point for our heirs to understand and abide by the Trust when that time comes. Craig Wiese and Sandra Burnett Wiese read more

Justin at Jeppesen Law has been such a blessing to me and my husband. We are in our 70's and had a Family Trust that was set up by another attorney years ago and was now outdated. The other attorney was going to charge us thousands of dollars to update our Trust, a sum we could not afford - so we kept putting it off. Then we found Jeppesen Law. What a blessing he has been for us! He updated our Trust for a very reasonable fee, but that is not the only reason we highly recommend him. He patiently helped my husband and me work through changes in our Trust and gave us options we hadn't thought about. He is very knowledgeable and explains things in terms we could understand. We are impressed with his thoroughness and communication. He saw our needs, and we ended up with a Trust we are happy with....Thank you, Justin. read more

We always expected a Will/Trust to be a complicated and expensive process and had put it off longer than we should have as a result. Justin has a unique ability to explain the process from beginning to end in a simplistic manner. He patiently spent as much time as needed to answer all of our questions even though he worked for a fixed, yet affordable, fee. We were impressed with the way he presented and explained our options and allowed us to make educated decisions throughout the process. It's clear that Justin truly cares about his clients and their best interest from the way he runs his practice. From our first meeting through completion of documents and follow up after completion, Justin always kept the process simple yet thorough. We would highly recommend Justin to anyone looking to complete a Will or Trust. read more

Before we left on our trip to Mexico my husband and I contacted Jeppesen Law and they were nothing but amazing. We had been putting it off, didn't want to think about everything that goes with estate planning and we were pressed for time. I spoke with our Lawyer, Justin Jeppesen, and in just four days he had everything done and ready to go. We signed papers and the next day boarded the plane! It felt so good knowing that everything was taken care of for our babies if anything ever happens to us. (God forbid) Thank you Jeppesen Law for taking such good care of us! They are incredibly proficient, trustworthy, prompt and they helped us stay within our budget. We highly, HIGHLY recommend Jeppesen Law to anyone in need! read more

My wife and I recently created our Trust, with Jeppesen Law. Justin made the entire process painless and worry-free, which is appreciated! Especially with the sensitive topics that arise during the creation of a trust, while having small children. Justin communicated wonderfully throughout the process of creating the trust, and left us completely satisfied that we had retained the right counsel. The set-fee approach is definitely appreciated, and Justin was adamant about reaching out with any questions at no additional expense. I would recommend anyone I know looking for a quality, honest and competent attorney, to reach out to Jeppesen Law. Thanks again! read more
