I contacted David Taylor of Right Size Law after searching for an attorney who focuses on elder law, and I found so much more than I expected. David and his team were diligent, considerate, and highly organized. They answered my questions thoroughly and walked me through each step, so I never felt overwhelmed by the process of setting up a trust. I have already recommended him to three family members.

Dear S M,
Thank you for this generous review and for choosing Right Size Law after your search for an elder law attorney. I am especially pleased that our team’s diligence, organization, and step-by-step guidance made the trust-planning process feel manageable rather than overwhelming.
Clear answers and thoughtful guidance are central to our approach to elder law and estate planning. Your recommendation to three family members is an extraordinary compliment, and we are grateful for your trust and confidence in our firm.

I engaged Rigjt Size Law and David Tayor twice in recent years and have been very pleased with his help and services. The first time was when a very good friend passed away several years ago and I had the duty of Executor. Engaing David was very helpful, and he alerted me to the various pitfalls and issues I had to deal with, things that are not alway obvious when one is handling the responsibility as an Executor. More recently, in the process of revising my Will I decided to use a Living Revocable Trust instead, and David was extremely helpful in walking me through the details and requirements of this arrangement. Most importantly, David has a wealth of local knowledge about dealing with local institutions in the greater DC area, such as charities, non-profits as well as with local banks etc.Hi local knowledge a and personal contacts are invaluable for anyone in the greater DC area dealing with the varioous issues related to elder law. He is a specialized elder law attorney, as well as a trusts and estates lawyer, and he has provided good advice on other related issues such as measures to take and sample recommenced companies dealing with managed care in the event of mental or physical incapacity etc. I would recommend him for anyone in the greater DC area for dealing with any of these issues.

Dear Bruce,
Thank you for your thoughtful review and for trusting Right Size Law on two important occasions. It has been a privilege to help you both with administering your friend's estate as executor and later with creating your revocable living trust and updated estate plan.
Serving as an executor often involves responsibilities that are not immediately obvious, so I'm glad we were able to help you navigate the process and avoid potential pitfalls. I'm also pleased that we could guide you through the transition from a will-based plan to a living trust tailored to your goals.
Thank you for highlighting our knowledge of the Washington, DC area and our experience working with local financial institutions, charities, and care resources. Our goal is to provide practical, comprehensive guidance in elder law and estate planning in DC, helping clients prepare not only their legal documents but also for the challenges that can arise with aging, incapacity, and trust administration.
Your recommendation means a great deal to all of us. We appreciate the opportunity to serve you and look forward to being a trusted resource whenever you need us.
Warmly,

What a great little lawfirm I found in my neighborhood! David took care of everything I needed with estate planning. And he was spectacular in explaining beneficial options to me. Also, both Maria and Armando in the office were kind and very helpful.

Dear Peter,
Thank you for your wonderful review and for trusting Right Size Law with your estate planning. We are so pleased you found our Capitol Hill law firm right here in your neighborhood and that we could help you create a plan that gives you confidence for the future.
As an elder law and estate planning attorney in DC, I believe it is just as important for clients to understand their options as it is to have well-drafted legal documents. I'm glad you found our discussions helpful, and I appreciate your kind recognition of Maria and Armando. They are dedicated to making every client feel welcome and supported throughout the planning process.
Thank you again for your recommendation. It was a pleasure working with you.

I found David Taylor through the Capitol Hill Village to review and update my will. I was greeted by his gracious office manager, Maria. As David reviewed the old will that I showed him, he immediately identified careless and potentially costly errors that were not in compliance with my wishes.
We discussed my wishes and intent. He assured me that the papers he prepared for me are correct and in compliance with my wishes. As I can’t anticipate when or what might happen, we discussed possible options. For now, it appeared to him that I already had a lot of those things in place. I feel comfortable that if I become infirm, he will discuss further options with my trustee. I feel that when I pass away, my trustee can call him for guidance and help; and that he and his staff will treat my trustee with kindness and understanding.
That was my primary concern and wish. David has shown himself a man of great compassion and integrity. He and his staff are stellar, exceeding my expectations. I feel grateful to have him recommended to me by the CHV.

Dear Mary Ann,
Thank you for your heartfelt review and for trusting Right Size Law with your estate planning. I am especially grateful to the team at Capitol Hill Village (CHV) for their confidence in our firm and for connecting us.
It was a pleasure helping you update your estate plan so that it accurately reflects your wishes and avoids the kinds of issues that can create unnecessary complications for your trustee. As an elder law and estate planning attorney in DC, I believe every estate plan should provide not only clear legal documents, but also the flexibility and guidance needed to navigate life's uncertainties.
Knowing that you have peace of mind—that your trustee will have experienced legal guidance and compassionate support when it is needed most—is one of the greatest compliments we could receive. Thank you again for your kind words, your trust, and for recognizing Maria and our entire team.

Anyone considering aging-in-place in the District of Columbia would do well to consult with Right Size Law. David Taylor specializes in Elder Law in DC and he is passionate about it.
My daughter, who lives in London, found Right Size Law online when searching for a local lawyer to revise my will. Our initial consultation with him helped me realize that I needed something more than a simple will. Although I don’t have a large or complicated estate, I am a healthy 84-year-old and may well live to be 100. As soon as David heard that I am intent on “aging in place” in my Capitol Hill home, he explained the many benefits of a Living Trust in planning ahead for those last years of life. He even arranged conferences to include my daughter via Zoom so we could come up with a workable plan together.
He clearly explains how to qualify for long-term medical care in your own home in the District and how to legally prevent being permanently placed in a nursing home situation against your wishes. This is especially helpful for those whose Executor may live in another city and may not be immediately available in a medical emergency.
A key component in my Living Trust has been provision for a Health Care Management professional. If my health should decline, she will coordinate with my Executor to advocate for my wishes. She would visit my home on a regular basis to oversee my medical care. Legal representation is ensured by Right Size Law if it’s needed.
My mind is now at ease about my coming years and I look forward to working with David and his great team in the future.

Dear Mary,
Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed review. It was a pleasure working with you to create a plan that supports your goal of aging in place while maintaining as much independence, control, and quality of life as possible.
Many people begin by looking for a simple will, only to discover that effective planning involves much more than transferring assets. As an elder law and estate planning attorney in DC, I focus on helping clients prepare not only for what happens after death, but also for the challenges that can arise during a long life, including incapacity, long-term care needs, and coordinating support when loved ones live far away.
I am especially pleased that your plan provides you with peace of mind about the future and confidence that your wishes will be respected. Thank you for trusting Right Size Law with your planning and for sharing your experience with others who are considering aging in place in the District of Columbia.

I recently worked with David Taylor of Right Size Law to update my estate plan and came away with a much greater appreciation for the value of an attorney who specializes in elder law.
I assumed my existing estate plan, prepared only eight years ago, would need only modest revisions. Instead, David identified important changes in the law and planning opportunities that materially affected how my estate plan should be structured. His recommendations went beyond updating documents. He incorporated thoughtful, flexible planning strategies designed to address future needs and adapt to circumstances that cannot be predicted today, particularly those involving beneficiaries.
What impressed me most was his ability to think several steps ahead. Rather than creating a static set of documents, David developed a plan that anticipates change and provides options for a variety of future scenarios without having to revisit and revise the entire estate plan.
Also, the cost was comparable to what I paid for estate planning services from an attorney who was not specialized in elder law. The difference in expertise, insight, and sophistication was substantial.
I recommend David Taylor. My experience demonstrated the value of working with someone whose practice is devoted to elder law and estate planning.

Dear Paul,
Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review.
It was a pleasure working with you to update your estate plan and evaluate how changes in the law, your goals, and future uncertainties could affect your planning.
One of the most important aspects of elder law and estate planning is recognizing that a plan should do more than address today's circumstances.
The goal is to create flexibility so that your plan can adapt to future changes involving health, long-term care, family dynamics, beneficiaries, and tax laws. I am especially grateful for your recognition of that approach.
As an elder law and estate planning attorney in DC, I believe clients are best served when planning is proactive rather than reactive.
Thank you for trusting Right Size Law with your planning and for highlighting the value of working with a specialist in elder law and estate planning.

When we first contacted Right Size Law (RSL) we wanted to get a Will done but in discussion with Mr.Taylor we realized more was required to protect us as we aged. RSL worked with us on Estate Plans that included answers to questions about elderly care and end of life issues. All questions were answered in a timely, thoughtful way in a very comfortable environment. We would highly recommend this company for these important services.

As an elder law and estate planning attorney in DC, I believe that good planning provides not only legal documents, but also peace of mind for the future.
