I called Northwest Legal to ask about estate planning for my husband and me. We have a simple…read moreestate, no children, thus no major legacy goals around family or a business, but we do expect to have a chunk of remaining assets that will eventually go to charitable organizations. Because we don't have family to step in later, we will need a revocable trust and a professional trustee or fiduciary to manage things if we become incapable or after we pass. I explained the basics at the start of the call. The attorney's tone shifted "immediately" when he heard the word "simple." He launched into a long lecture about how the process "isn't simple," emphasized how much time (8-9 hrs. of meeting - ooh! wow!) and reading we would have to put into the process; we probably wouldn't like his rates and spoke in a way that felt dismissive and condescending - as if I was clueless about the estate planning process or had never worked with attorneys before. I never asked for a simple process; I simply described our estate. My husband and I are already familiar with the steps involved. I tried to redirect the conversation, because he had already clearly dismissed the call by saying, "Let me share more information," but based on the communication so far, I added that it might not be a good fit. Even then, he didn't ask what our actual needs were, and I never even got the chance to explain that we needed a professional trustee or fiduciary. The call ended without any meaningful discussion of services or options. I was shocked and disappointed, especially since he had been recommended by close friends. I left the call feeling talked down to rather than helped. We were genuinely trying to understand whether this firm could support us, but the interaction made it clear this wasn't the right place for respectful, client‑focused communication. He may not have been the right fit for our needs, but the call was handled in a way that felt dismissive and premature, especially since he didn't have enough information about our situation to make that judgment. His loss; we'll be moving on to someone better. Less money in his pocket to go buy a high-end suit! I rarely leave reviews, positive or negative, but felt compelled to share this experience so others know what to expect ...or better yet, know to look elsewhere.

My dear (77 yr old) friend had a meeting with Mr Huffman to create a living. That was nearly 6…read moremonths ago. She did not receive follow-up correspondence from him or their office. Nearly 3 months after, she had inquired as to the progress of her trust and was told that Mr Huffman had been "pulled away" to another project and would work on it soon. Nearly 2 more months went by without correspondence from him or the firm. My friend realized that her trust creation was of low priority to Mr Huffman, so she called to request a refund for the work not being completed. She was denied a refund, being told the work was (nearly) complete. With this extreme delay and lack of care shown, my friend had little confidence or trust in his work going forward. After having 6 months of her precious time wasted by Mr Huffman, she has hired a new attorney to create her living trust. I'm confused as to why any attorney would not consider it a priority to complete a living trust for their 77 yr old client? Why commit to the work, then not deliver in a timely manner? As there was no prior consultation, why did Mr Huffman insist she pay in advance of any work being done? These questions will be posed to the Oregon State Bar Association when her complaint is filed.
