After the initial visit, she emailed drafts for review, and then followed up with another meeting to sign the documents. The process took a little less than a week and the cost was $750. Highly recommended!

I am so lucky to have found Karen. She has such a calm demeanor -- I knew the minute I met her I was in great hands. For me, this is an emotional process. So many things to consider and carefully think through. Karen is amazing, thorough, knowledgeable, thoughtful and gave great guidance through the entire process. I ended up with an beautiful binder, an electronic copy and copies for everyone I needed to review it with. Her office staff is also super friendly and responsive. If your looking for someone to update a trust or will or create new ones I highly recommend Karen Dawson and her team.

We were referred to FL by Clackamas county Social Services. It was an urgent situation with my…read morehusband's sister. We needed guardianship and conservatorship ASAP. We were quoted 13K, which we agreed upon. That amount was surpassed greatly. It was evident that copy and paste was used for the majority of legal documents. The work was not done by a lawyer, but a legal assistant. There were spelling errors, delays, poor communication and failure to mail documents. On one invoice was a 30 minute charge to mail a letter. Maybe they walked to the mailbox??? The final straw was this letter. There is no more money in the estate. Fitzwater received over $20,000 for the guardianship and simple probate. They were paid from the estate. The conversation with Jonathon today involved him telling my husband that Oregon Law states that legal fees were to be paid before other creditors. My husband was NEVER informed of this law and paid outstanding medical bills with the little amount that was left in the estate. Jonathon also stated that "he talked with the partners about waiving the unpaid invoice and they declined". Unreal, the firm got over 20K for the "work" in the case. Do not hire them unless you have unlimited funds.
