She gave us a few ideas, one's which we should have knows since my husband was a Real Estate Broker for over 40 years. But being away from the business and retired 13 years, he is a bit rusty on RE Law. And when you are in a hairy situation, it is always good to get another opinion. Although, we did not use her to settle the disagreement, we were happy that we would take it on. We decided to negotiate ourselves instead of the situation escalating. But I am giving her four stars for handling California even when she is in Nevada and for her advice and for her fee being reasonable.

The soonest appointment they…read morehad for a consultation was several days away, but she told me she would ask him if he would make time and call me that day. He did call while I was on the phone with the other attorney's office, and I missed the call. I called Michael's office back, and both he and his secretary were still kind and willing. Michael and his secretary/clerk were both warm, friendly, willing to listen and answer questions without interrupting. The other attorney's office I consulted (Patrick King in Carson City) had a helpful and willing clerk, but she interrupted and spoke over me a lot. The speed she discussed the issues with made it difficult to take notes, but Michael Millward was very understanding of waiting while I wrote down what he said to later share with my husband. He also spoke with me directly for the consultation instead of a clerk. My mother-in-law passed away intestate (without a will) over the weekend and my sister-in-law's family didn't understand how probate works and were already going through our mother's belongings and throwing them away. They had no intention of filing for probate and didn't understand that it isn't optional and is legally required. We all planned on needing to empty out the mobile home and possibly make repairs and renovations. We didn't know what creditors Mom had or what assets. We knew she had a lot of medical bills and a small car loan. We were looking at having to do a *massive* amount of work, and it was very stressful. Since Mom's estate likely would have more liabilities than assets, Michael informed me that we don't have to do the probate process and don't have to administer the estate ourselves. We can hand this over to the Carson City Public Administrator who handles estates for individuals with no will. Michael looked up the phone number after I asked for it. Phone number: 775-887-2260. Michael informed me that it might be the clerk's office that answers because it appears that they share a division or office space; if so, ask for the administrator. Michael, said to tell the administrator that a family member died, the cremation is handled, and no one in the family is interested in administering the estate. That's basically it. There's probably paperwork to sign, but we don't have to do all the hard work we were planning on. Again, we don't have to clean out her house, dump her belongings, pay her rent, sell her house, or pay her bills. We don't have to do anything beyond the cremation. We *can* get photos and heirlooms, too, before handing it over. Isn't that wonderful?? I received a free consultation. I told Michael that I would gladly pay him for his time for the extremely helpful advice, but he said it wasn't necessary. He also welcomed me to call back if I had any other questions. Months ago we consulted a different estate/elder law attorney regarding my mother-in-law, Ernie Adler, and he was awful. He was disinterested, unhelpful, wasn't friendly, answered our questions to a minimum or not at all, couldn't answer some of them (said he didn't know), and charged $200 for the brief consultation (less than 30 minutes). Michael Millward was the stark and complete opposite. We highly recommend him!

Let's start with the fact that Danielle decided that I am "carrying no weight" while living in my…read morerecently deceased Mother's home, because my oldest sister is handling the legal side while I clean the 40 years of collection inside her home. She then tried to gaslight me by telling me that my sister did not turn off my power this morning, when now I have the power in my name and the 1200$ debt that came with it and will stay with me until it is paid even in my new place. I asked about how long I have left living here (which I have lived in this home for 20 years now and only stayed because the University isn't cheap and my mom asked me to stay with her this last year) and she told me she can come evict me today if she wanted to. She then pretended to not understand the term "Resident" when I explained how long I have been here and that I need just two extra weeks to save for an apartment so I am not homeless. All in all she seems unprofessional and rude. Also she has claimed to have sent me paperwork explaining the process, I have yet to receive it; I asked if she could send it again and she said "I am not sending it again" while chuckling. She did agree to send me the paperwork in PDF form over email and I have not received anything yet albeit this was only about 45 minutes ago. Also when I spoke about how long I have been here she went from "kicking me out today" to "you don't want to go the eviction route". Well what am I supposed to do? Be homeless and avoid eviction or gain two extra weeks and be evicted? She did not answer my question and instead glossed over with "I'll reach out to your sister and ask". Dude my Mother didn't have just two children, she had four and I have every right (maybe not legally) to know what the hell you are doing with my Mother's house and belongings. My sister should not be the end all to the conversation, maybe show some humanity to the person losing their childhood home and who just lost their Mother instead of snarky, rude and condescending. We both know what I meant by resident, playing the terminology game isn't going to win anything besides make you look childish. I was not rude in the beginning to you, so you had no reason to start off the conversation this way. I will not have any further contact with you, and will never seek your firm for any kind of representation based on how well you presented the professionalism and attitude of your work. Also I took your advice and since you wanted play the "terms game", I looked up Resident and found something fun. A resident is defined as occupying a space for a prolonged or permanent time, this means both state and property. SO hopefully now you can see why you are incorrect and sound childish. And lets look up some NRS codes like you suggested: NRS 205.081  "Dwelling" defined.  As used in NRS 205.081 to 205.082, inclusive, "dwelling" means a structure or part thereof that is designed or intended for occupancy as a residence or sleeping place. I'm sorry I must of misread that word in the third line and fourth from last of the NRS codes you suggested I look up, is that "residence"? As in someone who dwells in the structure or home for prolonged period of time is a resident, as in the definition of resident/residency?
