Estate planning attorneys in Evanston, Illinois

"Cameron at Pestinger Law made what felt like a daunting process—creating our family trust—surprisingly easy. He took the time to listen carefully, understood our needs and goals, and guided us through each step with clarity and patience. The entire process was completed in about four weeks. His attention to even the smallest details really stood out and gave us confidence that everything was handled properly. If you are considering setting up a trust or doing estate planning, you will be in excellent hands with Cameron. I highly recommend Pestinger Law."

"We met Cameron to update our wills, having moved to Illinois, and having kids much older than the last time we went through this process. We're so glad we worked with him. Compared to the past times we've done this, working with Cameron was honestly so much better - it was even enjoyable (which I know is a rare thing to be able to say about estate planning). He was kind and thoughtful, and he really took the time to get to know us, our needs, and what success looked like to us. The trusts and plans we built feel very much like ours (not at all a generic plan pushed on us). We have a lot of peace of mind being supported through this process, in the excellent way Cameron did. We not only left with documents and a plan, but also with guidance on how to set our plans up for success. We're going to keep checking in with Cameron over time, to continue to make sure our plans are right, as our lives change. We highly recommend Cameron - both for people who haven't gone through this process before, and to those who need to keep updating and checking their existing plans."

"Cameron does a great job at making his clients feel welcome and at ease. Clear explanations, efficient meeting/planning sessions, and easy communication. There's a lot to go over for estate planning and he leads you through it with a systematic approach that makes sure everyone is on the same page and working at the same pace. Available and very approachable to answer any and all questions, he demonstrates a true desire to help his clients and understand who they are, not just pump them through a process and collect a check."

"After the death of my husband, who did not have a will, I contacted Pestinger Law in Evanston to see if they could help me out. Cameron immediately stepped in and set up a meeting for my son and I. He was very supportive and thorough with his explanations. After resolving my initial issue, I asked Cameron to help me set up a Trust and Living Will. He was extremely detailed and informative as he walked us through the process. I very much appreciated his knowledge, kindness and patience. I would very highly recommend Pestinger Law. I’m so glad they are the law firm that I contacted when I needed a lawyer. Susan Price"

"Cameron was very knowledgeable, helpful and exhibited great patience and understanding during my family’s trust creation process. Along with being flexible which we appreciated. We would recommend him. The next step is proof of use (hopefully this is quite a few years away)."
