Experienced and Knowledgeable

I hired Karen D. Yardley from Greenberg Traurig to assist with a complex estate planning matter, and I was incredibly impressed with her expertise in trusts and estates. With 36 years of experience, it's clear she knows her craft inside and out. Her background from Georgetown University and recognition by Best Lawyers are well-earned—she provided thoughtful, strategic guidance tailored to my family's unique needs. Karen broke down complex legal concepts into understandable terms, making the process far less daunting. However, I did notice her response times were slightly slower than I expected, especially during peak periods. The cost was on par with her experience, though I wish there had been a bit more transparency in billing upfront. Overall, her deep knowledge of Nevada trust laws and meticulous attention to detail gave me confidence in our estate plan. I’d recommend her to anyone needing a seasoned professional in this area, just be prepared for a more premium experience.
