What My Clients Are Saying

Picture
 "Tamara was recommended by our investment manager. We had a wonderful experience working with Tamara. She was responsive and willing to answer any questions we had. The final cohabitation agreement was completed quickly and met our unique goals. We will be sure to come back to Tamara for any future legal needs." - Rebecca 

"Thinking through end-of-life and legacy decisions likely isn’t anyone’s favorite exercise, but Tamara made it as enjoyable and satisfying as possible. She facilitated our estate planning—spending a great deal of time with us and answering all our questions on related issues—for a most reasonable fee. Clearly, Tamara approaches her job as a public service and her clients as respected individuals with their own unique needs. She is warm and empathetic, and we couldn’t have asked for a more friendly process or a more professional attorney."         - Rich and Jackie

"I have worked with many attorney's over the years but none as professional as Tamara Block. She listened to my needs and followed through as we discussed promptly. She was a pleasure to work with and I plan to use for all my real estate matters!" - Wendy
​
"We met with Tammy for estate/will planning.  Meeting with Tammy was a very comfortable no sales pressure experience.  She makes suggestions, answers your questions and is very honest on what she thinks you need in your will and what you don't. At the same time if you insist on wanting a particular service added to you she will happily set it up for you.  She offers yearly follow-up meetings to review and make any necessary changes to your will for no additional cost. We have recommended Tammy to friends and family!" - Tony & Sabrina

"Finding an attorney who not only had experience with estate planning, but was also very personable was important to us.  Tamara's warm demeanor made us feel comfortable discussing details related to our Will, Trust and Healthcare Directive.  Overall, a positive experience for us." - Brian & Patty
