Law office of Andrew Kern

Excellent experience working with Andrew Kern to prepare my revocable living trust documents -- Declaration of Trust (including Schedule A), Durable Power of Attorney, Advance Health Care Directive, Pour-over Will, a well as a Certification of Trust. The most difficult part of preparing a Trust is finding an estate planning attorney. Here's an extremely knowledgeable and affable attorney who answers his phone, provides a complimentary introduction to his estate planning services while learning his potential client's needs, and provides an extremely fair price for his service based on the individual's trust requirements. Our in-person meeting to go over all required documentation was easy and I was given a proposed completed trust date of approximately six weeks -- which Andrew fulfilled. The signing, too, at Andrew's office was straightforward. I feel very fortunate to have found Andrew Kern as my estate planning attorney. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to create a revocable living trust.

Where do I begin? This man is the most condescending lawyer I have ever met. He treated me and my 80 year old mother (who is battling cancer) like absolute trash. I requested the meeting because I had a few questions regarding my living trust, before anything got filed. Before I could even ask my first question, this pathetic excuse for an attorney was so preoccupied with me having a second responsible person named, and when I explained it had slipped my mind and could fill it in right then, he says very rudely and condescendingly, "then why are we even having this meeting?"... Mind you, this was BEFORE I could even ask my first question. There have been a couple of other Google reviews mentioning his interpersonal skills being sub-par... Let me just say, those reviews underplayed it. This guy is as condescending and disrespectful as they come, and dies not deserve anybody's business. He's going to reply to this review saying that I cut him a check for half of the fee at the conclusion of this "meeting", which in emails between the 2 off us he has suggested that that is proof the meeting went well... No it isn't, I needed a living trust, so I was going to go forward with him, but the more I thought about our interaction, the more upset I became, so I emailed him a few hours after our meeting and told him I did not want to go ahead with the living trust. There are other, less condescending, living trust attorneys out there, do yourself a favor and go with one of them.
