Ron McKenzie2024-07-16 “When my wife, Pamela and I decided to establish a Living Trust, we realized we had no idea where to start. So, I took the lead and over a period of three months attended three different seminars in Las Vegas that were offered by legal firms that specialized in assisting and developing Living Trust solutions for families. The firm that came out on top by a huge margin was Gary L. Fales & Associates. So the question is WHY? The reason is Gary in his presentation immediately addressed the needs and wants that my wife and I were looking for, plus they had very reasonable pricing with various payment options. So, we signed on and they helped us assemble our Living Trust including Wills and Burial Instructions and where our Assets would go. We both highly recommend meeting and talking with Gary Fales and his great Staff. When you complete the process, you’ll sleep better at night.” Ronald A. and Pamela S.
