Bethany C Warner & Associates

Laura Liberty was amazing to work with. She handled my questions and concerns regarding the "personal representative/executor" role with ease. She was responsive to emails and shared helpful links. Laura was supportive through the difficult family dynamics and eventual sale of property process. I would trust Laura with any legal needs I might have.

After doing a fair amount of research, I chose Laura Liberty to set up a trust for my husband and me. There were quite a few glowing online reviews for her, and I am very happy to say that we had an outstanding experience with Ms. Liberty. I suppose that most trusts have some kind of complication to them, and ours was no exception. We own property in two states, we don't always live together, we've got the usual pension and retirement funds, my brothers and I share a summer cabin that is held in an LLC, and we have a family comprising children from two marriages. Laura didn't bat an eye. She gave me a list of the documents that were needed, and once I rounded them up and supplied them, she got down to work and drew up our trust. I had a million questions, since this was my first experience with a trust, and Laura very patiently answered every one of them. Sometimes twice, because financial things often confuse me. What a competent, pleasant person! And then, after everything was all set up and she had moved my condo into the trust, I encountered a banking issue which required me to temporarily move the condo out of the trust. I panicked at the thought of trying to do this, but then realized I just needed to call Laura! I did that, she squeezed me in for a consult on the same day, smoothed me over, calmed me down, and efficiently handled my problem for me. It is impossible to overstate what a great trust attorney she is! Don't hesitate; call Laura Liberty!

Jonathan Hagy was amazing with putting our family's estate planning documents together in a short time frame and for a great price. I used to work for an estate planning lawyer in another state, so I have a rough idea what I'm looking at, and the documents he put together for us were top notch, and very clearly spelled out everything. I also called virtually every other lawyer in Traverse City, and his prices were far more reasonable than what some of the other lawyers wanted. He was very helpful with explaining the whole process and suggesting what to do for our situation. Highly recommend! Thank you Jon!

Having moved from Illinois to Michigan recently, it became necessary to modify our wills, trust, and powers of attorney estate documents to reflect state law and to update our plans and preferences. We have been guided through this complex and laborious process by Laura Liberty. She is knowledgeable, professional, and thorough in her approach, while bringing a personal touch in providing advice and guidance that has been much appreciated. We have been pleased and gratified to work with her, and can highly recommend her. Joan and Arthur Goldman Traverse City, MI
