My wife and I engaged Howard Feinman of Gleaves Swearingen to update our wills and establish a living trust. With his nearly two decades of experience and the 'Lawyer of the Year' recognition in Trusts and Estates, we felt confident in his technical expertise. The final documents were thorough and professionally prepared, reflecting his deep knowledge of Oregon estate law. However, our experience was mixed on the service side. While Howard was personable in our meetings, responsiveness between sessions was slower than expected. We sometimes waited a week for replies to straightforward emails, which created minor anxiety during the process. His paralegal was helpful, but we had hoped for more direct, timely updates from the attorney himself. The fee structure was clear, and the work product is solid, so we are satisfied with the legal outcome. For complex estate matters, his recognized skill is evident, but managing client communication and expectations seems to be an area for refinement.
