I engaged Kim Schoknecht at Pillsbury to help my family update our estate plan, including a complex trust. Her deep expertise in Trusts and Estates was evident, and her recognition by Best Lawyers is well-deserved. She has a clear command of the law after decades of practice. The documents she drafted were thorough and precise. However, the experience was somewhat mixed. While the final product was solid, there were noticeable delays in receiving drafts, and responses to emails often took several days. For a matter we considered urgent, this was frustrating. Her advice was always sound when we finally connected, but the process felt less responsive than expected given the firm's reputation. She is undoubtedly knowledgeable, but the client service aspect felt just adequate.
