We have been a clients for a number of years and continue to be impressed by the thoroughness of the Family Legacy Estate Planning Program offered by Ed Clay. The program provides the comfort for us and our family that the documents are continually updated, there is an ongoing briefing on any changes in the law and even training offered to the family members within the program.
In our search for managing the right legal partner this is by far the most complete program we have seen for managing our Estate Plans and it is administrated by an understanding individual in Ed Clay who is dedicated to this field.

Ed Clay was recommended to my family by a mutual acquaintance. While I did some research about creating a Living Trust, I didn’t know anything about the process, requirements, and time needed to accomplish this complicated but very much necessary task. From the moment I made the initial phone call, the level of care, professionalism, and attention to detail have both made the process easy to navigate and complete promptly.
A couple of additional positive points about Ed and our experience:

The level of professionalism and knowledge
Amount of material/explanation provided.
Tailored to the individual needs of the client.
Appointment reminders
Secure Portal for Docs
Very realistic timetable
Annual meetings
Maintenance
Very reasonable price (you will not find the level of services provided and price anywhere else in the area)
Nice office and available parking

We cannot thank you enough for making our experience so positive.

When I needed assistance coordinating Maryland assets with my client’s revocable living trust, Ed and his team educated my client on the laws, provided clear instructions on the next steps and proactively provided updates on the processing of our request until completion. If you’re looking for an attorney that takes the time to explain the pros and cons of the law and has a process designed to effectively assist your client and/or you and your family, then you’ve come to the right place! My team and I HIGHLY recommend Ed and his team for all your estate planning needs!

Estate planning is complicated and requires constant updating as well as forethought. Ed does a great job of keeping us informed and helpfully directed so that all our goals and objectives are met.

– Frank D.

Well done! Ed communicated his approach to estate planning and the advantage of having a dedicated estate planning attorney to assist with one’s wishes.

I highly recommend Ed to take care of your estate planning business.  It’s interesting how often large banking institutions can file documents incorrectly and drag cases out for years, in fear of admitting they made a mistake.

Get it done right the first time and reach out to Ed Clay!

All questions were answered during our Funding Forum meeting with a full explanation even for those requiring only a yes or no response.  A very efficient and useful meeting.
