The photos above are both of me, Rick Law, 2004 and 2009. I promise to no longer hide behind my former, more youthful 55-year-old portrait.

“Everyone in the office was absolutely wonderful to work with whether on the initial set-up of the trust, adjustment to such following my father’s passing, or processing of his home sale and proceeds.

This is a definitely a team you can trust and one I highly recommend.”
