Kimberly Mitchell
Lois Tilton at Perkins Coie provided exceptional counsel as I navigated the administration of my late father's estate, which included a complicated family trust with out-of-state assets. Her deep knowledge of trusts and estates law, honed from her Harvard education and years of practice, was immediately evident. She was thorough, patient in explaining nuanced tax implications, and her recognition by Best Lawyers felt well-deserved. The process was handled with professionalism and a personal touch that eased a difficult time. My only slight critique is that during particularly busy periods, response times could occasionally stretch to a full business day. Overall, I felt in highly capable hands and would recommend her without reservation.
