Expert guidance for our family's estate planning

Katie Aguilar at Rhoades McKee provided excellent counsel as we navigated updating our wills and establishing a trust for our aging parents. Her dual recognition in Elder Law and Trusts & Estates was evident in her thoughtful, comprehensive approach. With nearly two decades of experience, she explained complex succession planning concepts clearly. Her Notre Dame background and broad practice gave us great confidence. While her response time could occasionally be a day or two, the quality of her work was outstanding. We felt our family's future was in capable hands.
