Real stories. Real results.
I am so pleased with the work by Mr. Joel Howe on my estate planning. He was so patient and answered all my questions until I understood the whole process. He set up the trust exactly the way I needed it to be done and then provided explicit instructions for the bank, investment firm, DMV and even the car insurance company. His assistant and all the staff are so professional and pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone needing help with their estate planning.

I have worked with Joel Howe at Evashevski Elliott and I find him to be among the best attorneys I have ever met. He has a sharp legal mind and always has time to answer my questions. In addition, I have met other attorneys and staff from the firm and all that I have met (I haven’t met everyone) are top notch. I give Evashevski Elliott my ringing endorsement!
