What My Clients Say

Allison Poirier was wonderful to work with in setting up our estate plan. She answered all our questions found the answers we needed and went through all the options available to us. The office was very accommodating, even with Covid-19 we were able to sign our documents in a professional, safe environment. A thank you also goes out to Eva Holmes for setting up appointments and guiding our way. I would highly recommend this office.

Allison Poirier was a pleasure to work with on our estate plan; I would recommend her to anyone looking to get these important documents in place, especially people with children. The idea of the state deciding who my children go to is terrifying. Allison was professional and thorough when walking us through our options and didn’t try to push us into unnecessary trusts for our straightforward situation.

We had a very good experience with Allison in the KKC Attorneys Firm. The first thing was a phone call to request an attorney to update our Wills. The secretary answered right away, she was very helpful and gave us several options for our first meeting. We then met with Allison and she gave us a detailed explanation of what needed to be done to update our Wills. We then received a package at home with all the editorial changes, and met again with Allison to go over every detail and when we were satisfied, she brought two witnesses and we signed the papers. Easy and all done in 1 hour. I give them an A.
