At our first meeting he told us what would happen in handling my mother-in law’s estate and he followed it up with documents that were easy to follow. He let me handle the parts I was comfortable with and he was there for the parts that I was more comfortable with him handling. Zach kept us on track and we were able to avoid any surprises thanks to his guidance. Thanks again Zach for all your help!Bryce HotzlerJanuary 22, 2024Zach and the Gold Leaf Team did an excellent job educating us and executing the documents needed for us to set up a Revocable Trust.
