“Highly recommend, fair cost for excellent estate plan. The firm set-up our Trusts and Will in 2018 with one of the attorneys at an affordable cost for a very comprehensive documents. Just had the 2nd follow up review (at no costs) with Mike Rutkowski who was very thorough and clear in addressing all our questions and concerns. The documents created initially was so robust that no legal updates needed yet so far since no changes in beneficiaries took place... ”

The Rutkowski law firm is amazing. I got notified that I had to deploy and recently had a daughter. They listened to my wife and I's situation and did everything to take care of us. 1 month after talking with them I had my trust signed and ready to go right before I had to leave. They are amazing and Im glad I was able to work with them! Highly recommend anyone that's interested to talk with them!

“Their whole team was amazing to work with! The attorneys were very knowledgeable and made it easy to understand. We chose virtual planning process option because it was so much more convenient with my work schedule but they offered to meet in person too of we didn't do zoom. Highly Recommended!”
