 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stuart Green is an exceptional estate attorney. He handled my father's living will and then his estate after his passing, as well as helping my mother finalize and complete her estate in conjunction with my father's death. Currently, he is handling the living will and estate planning for me and my wife and our family. I highly recommend him and his integrity of work.
