This is a firm that really steps inside your concerns and brings solutions and programs together to bring you the most effective result(s). Their seminars are an eye opener and the personal care and concern are above board. I don't think you will find a flaw in German Law!!!
They do not offer Medicaid planning. I called them up and they told me to call a lawyer that specializes in Medicaid. Failed my parents miserably in 2015. Wouldn't recommend this office to anyone ever. A bunch of useless paperwork is all they have. An inch thick of legal jargon that makes them look like millionaires.

Hi Jamie, we take feedback seriously, but we haven't been able to identify you as someone who has worked with our firm or attended one of our events. If we are missing something please feel free to contact us directly.
Very professional and 3xtremely helpful. Really cared about my mother and making sure they addressed her questions and made changes to the estate plan following my father's passing.
I’ve worked with many estate planning attorneys throughout my career, and Ray stands out in a way that’s hard to overstate. He brings a level of integrity, thoughtfulness, and genuine care that is incredibly rare in this space.
Unlike many attorneys who can feel transactional or rushed, Ray takes the time to build real relationships. Every interaction I’ve had with him and his team has been personal, sincere, and deeply professional. He listens with intention, follows through on his word, and operates with the kind of quiet confidence that immediately earns your trust.
Ray isn’t just an exceptional attorney—he’s an exceptional person. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can truly count on.
