I was 32 years old and suddenly my Dad passed away from a heart attack.
I was grief-stricken, scared, and unsure of what to do next.
I knew nothing about wills or estate administration. I needed someone to take control of the situation, keep me calm, and guide me through it step by step. I needed someone with years of experience handling complicated estates who wouldn’t be intimidated by copious amounts of stressful family drama (Which, in my family is never in short supply!).
John was the person I needed to help me pick up the pieces and get the job done. I am SO glad he was my lawyer! When I say John took me by the hand, and guided me through this process…he did just that!
I needed his humor, his responsiveness (literally texts you back right away anytime day or night…), and his expertise. With his help, I sold a house and 8 vehicles, and kept my sanity despite a lot of family arguments—issues with family members RANSACKING my Dad’s house and taking valuable items—and interpreting a less-than-detailed will that my Dad had jotted on a piece of notebook paper (thanks Dad).
I’m 33 now and I’ve learned a lot through this process! I highly recommend John Whalen to help you through complex estate matters. He’s your guy! When you’re freaking out like I was, you’ll appreciate his late night texts saying, “Sweetie, you’re doing a great job” or “Stay tuned, this is going to be fun”. It wasn’t fun, but we made it! Thanks John…
