Legal Plan Member testimonial

“My wife and I had utilized my legal plan to draft estate planning documents. Attorney Ronald S. Cook made the process very easy. He provided a questionnaire that helped keep the issues focused. We then utilized a Zoom meeting (my request) to discuss my concerns. Zoom was convenient as this allowed my wife and I to connect via Zoom from different locations. The documents came out perfect and the attorney took the time to answer all my questions.”
