When my family was navigating the dissolution of a multi-generational trust with significant tax implications, we turned to David Sohmer at Spiegel Ryan. His dual recognition in both Trusts and Estates and Tax Law proved to be exactly what we needed. Over his 19-year career, he has developed a rare ability to see the entire legal and financial landscape of an estate. David patiently explained the intricate interplay between Colorado probate law and federal tax obligations, translating complex concepts into clear, actionable steps. His deep knowledge, particularly in nuanced tax strategies for estates, saved our family a substantial amount in potential liabilities. What stood out was his professionalism; he was always prepared, responsive, and managed the sensitive family dynamics with genuine empathy. While his profile notes his recognition in Montréal, his expertise is clearly global, and his counsel was perfectly tailored to our situation in Denver. The outcome was seamless, protecting our assets and ensuring my parents' wishes were honored without unnecessary conflict or expense. I cannot recommend David highly enough for anyone facing sophisticated estate planning or tax-related legal challenges.
