Earlier this summer I engaged Bascom Law to prepare/update all our estate plan documents. The sessions with Brad Bascom were impressive both in their coverage and the clear and understandable discussions of the important decisions. Frequent travel delayed my review of the final material I was given until just recently. Now that I've completed my review, I am even more impressed with the work. The documents are well organized with an index that allows quick access. The writing is excellent with instructions that are clear and straightforward. After many years of anxiety about the adequacy of our essential papers, I am now confident we are prepared for the future.

Bascom Law was recommended to me by a lawyer who stop doing estate law. From the time I contacted Bascom till all the papers were signed seem like a very short time. They were efficient, curteous and professional. I would strongly recommend them.

The end of life documents my husband and I had were out of date and we wanted to make some changes so I asked my younger daughter to do some research to find a good Estate Planning/Elder Law attorney who serviced our area. Someone they felt comfortable with for “when the time comes”.She found Bascom Law PC through her Google research and recommended we contact them because of all the positive reviews. I am so glad we did. I am so pleased with that family oriented firm. Everyone we dealt with was professional and helpful. In our first meeting with Mike Bascom he provided us with a wealth of information and listened carefully as we discussed our desires concerning our estate. My husband, myself and our two daughters were all there so we could all be a part of the discussions. As we talked, he asked questions and made recommendations. He recommended we establish both an Irrevocable Trust as well as a Revocable Trust and explained why he recommended both. We agreed. My older daughter who is designated as the Trustee for the Irrevocable Trust lives out of state and would be flying home in just a few days after that meeting so Mike pushed to get all the documents in order and ready to sign before she left. On the day we met to go over the documents both Mike (father) and Brad Bascom (son) went over the documents thoroughly to make sure we understood them as well as making sure all was as we requested. We were presented with a green binder for each of the Trusts along with next steps for us to follow through.The binders not only contain our Trust document but also other documents drawn up for us: Pour Over Will, Power of Attorney, Advance Directive for Health Care, etc. The binder also has sections for us to keep other information that would be helpful to our daughters upon our deaths including memorial instructions.Even though we had a lot of “homework” to follow through with the next steps, we all felt relieved that we were taking steps to make plans for the future. If we have questions or need guidance, then we know Bascom Law is just a phone call or email away ready to help us. Thank you Bascom Law PC.

We wanted to creat a legacy for future generations. Mike and Brad were very helpful in explaining the various options we had at our disposal. After just one meeting with Mike we were able to determine what we wanted to do. A week later the plan was ready for review which was conducted by Brad. At the conclusion of the review we walked out the door with a comprehensive estate plan. Very happy with the services and would highly recommend them

Mike Bascom has been with our family for the past 23 years when my husband and I did our first will. We recently just had all of our estate planning done and we could not be more pleased with the level of service and professionalism that Bascom law provided. They are very knowledgeable and I trust them with any issues we may have moving forward! I highly recommend Bascom Law

Kim Kanefke is my sister-in-law, and I've known her for 30+ years. She is dedicated to helping clients in her role of Client Services Coordinator at Bascom. She will go the extra mile or more to make sure that clients and their families are comfortable and receive the information that they need. Kim is very caring, attentive, and compassionate.

What a wonderful practice. I have known Karen Killebrew for 15 years. We even served together supporting and managing our high school band boosters where I saw her management skills at work. Karen is very organized, great with people, super attentive to the task or project in front of her, a very good communicator, and a good friend. I have also known Karen as a teacher capable of inspiring her students. I highly recommend Karen.

We recently met with Mike and Brad for the dreaded estate and will planning. As we all know, no one likes to talk about these things; however, it is important. Both Mike and Brad made it not only easy but comforting. I honestly chose this firm because of their reviews and I’m so glad I did!! They are top notch and that includes Ruth Anne and Kim…above and beyond!!! HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

My husband and I needed an Estate plan for our family and our children. We wanted the security of protecting our assets officially. We have known this firm for many years and appreciate it is a local family owned business. We were very well attended to by Mike Bascom and his efficient Bascom Law team! They explained the complex legal options to us and helped us organize a life long plan for our family’s needs. Being a nurse, I know the need to have thorough medical documents in place - and this office prepared them quickly. Mike and his team were creative in their approach to our estate plan. We are amazed at their expertise and will be life long clients! We highly recommended them to everyone!

My wife and I feel that having a professionally prepared and updated will and trust is essential. We have been clients of Bascom Law for quite a number of years and they have done a good job in helping us with our will and trust. They do periodic reviews of our documents and make necessary changes to keep everything current. Should something happen to one or both of us, we know that Bascom Law will be there to help us and/or our family. I strongly recommend that you have an updated will and trust and I highly recommend Bascom Law to assist you in this process.
Robert Clark

We had a relatively complex estate planning need that Bascom Law helped meet. The attorneys and staff were very thorough, polite, and informative as they led us through the process.Our estate plans were well thought out and explained thoroughly. When the time comes, our families will have a clear path to follow to handle our estates.

My experience at Bascom Law has been excellent. As a young professional, Brad and Mike helped me understand estate planning. They educated and equipped me with information that led to sound decision making for my future. They carefully listened to my wishes and created a plan to achieve my goals. Their expertise and compassion for their clients is unmatched. I would highly recommend Bascom Law to friends in need of estate planning, asset protection, and elder law. I cannot thank the team at Bascom Law enough for their wonderful service!

My husband and I met recently with Mike Bascom and he truly made the estate planning process not so intimidating as I had imagined. He was an excellent listener and had several suggestions/solutions to accommodate our needs. We then met with Brad who also had the same patient listening quality. We never felt rushed and believe they did an excellent job for us. The entire staff was pleasant and accommodating. We highly recommend this practice for all your Estate Planning needs.
