“I came into the office of David Lowe for changes to my living trust. I was very overwhelmed with my current situation and was at a loss as to where to turn. David was most patient in listening as to why I felt there was a need for changes. After several professional questions and explaining that estate plans often need updating, he explained how my estate plans could be changed to reflect my wishes. David and his legal assistant, Shaloma, were very professional and both work diligently to ensure that all my questions and concerns were answered. I am very happy that I chose David Lowe to review and modify my estate plans--living trust, will, financial power of attorney, and health care directive. His fee is very reasonable and the documents were prepared in a timely manner. Thank you, David and Shaloma.”- Deloris Edwards
