I engaged Robb Longman to assist with a complex estate plan that involved a family-owned business, an area where his dual expertise in estate planning and business law was a major draw. My situation required integrating a trust structure with the operating agreement of our LLC, and Robb’s knowledge in drafting corporate documents and tax planning was evident. He provided solid, technically correct advice that gave us confidence in the final documents. However, the experience was not without its frustrations. There were several instances where emails went unanswered for a week or more, and getting a status update sometimes required multiple follow-ups on my part. While his work product was thorough, the process felt less collaborative than I had hoped; explanations were sometimes overly technical without clear translation to practical next steps. For straightforward matters, his competence is undeniable. I would recommend him for his substantive skill in business and estate law, but with the caveat that clients should be prepared to manage expectations around response times and proactively seek clarification.
