My husband and I came to Ms. Penhaligen via a recommendation. I had mentioned to a friend that we were looking to set up a trust and that one of our biggest concerns was providing for our cats should both my husband and I meet an unexpected early (i.e., youthful) demise. Turns out my friend had used Ms. Penhaligen and had had similar concerns re: her cats. She was pleased with what Ms. Penhaligen had crafted and highly recommended her. Long story short, we engaged Ms. Penhaligen to do our estate documents, we are delighted with the solutions related to the caretaking of our cats, and appreciated that Ms. Penhaligen was willing to work with our crazy schedules and make sure we had something in place prior to our leaving on an extended vacation. Should we ever need to make changes or additions to our estate documents, we will return to Ms. Penhaligen. We recommend her without reservation.

Jane Penhaligen came highly recommended to me by a friend.
I hired Jane to help me with an estate settlement and also had her
update my trust. Jane is very professional and is an expert in her field.
I would not hesitate to hire her again.

My wife and I decided to work with Jane Penhaligen based on her stellar reviews and couldn't be happier. We hired Jane to set up our family trust and powers of attorney. Jane is very professional and extremely knowledgeable in her area. She was very helpful and patiently answered all our questions. We were very pleased with the final outcome as we had make a few changes along the process. I highly recommend her services. You will be in good hands.

When we first met Jane Penhaligen for our initial consultation we knew immediately that she had the experience and knowledge that would address our estate planning needs. Almost more importantly, she listened carefully to what we had to say about our family situation and asked critical questions that helped us focus on understanding the importance of creating a legal structure that will meet our estate planning objectives now and in the future.
Like many others families, we found excuse after excuse as to why we weren't giving this matter the priority it deserved, until, with the help of Jane, we came to realize that having a proper Estate Plan in place provided our family with a road map to ensure our wishes were carried out as we aged and at the time of our death.
We are very pleased with the final result and would not hesitate to recommend Jane to our family and friends.

If I had to describe Jane in one word it would be "Godsend". I called her the day after my father died (three years ago) and she has consistently assisted and assured me ever since. What should have been an easy trust has not been and Jane's calm, knowledgeable assistance has made a difficult situation survivable. I am so confident in her knowledge and abilities that I have had her do my own trust. I would recommend Jane without hesitation. She's the best!

I would absolutely recommend Jane's law office to anyone in the future. At a time in life when you are grieving over the loss of a loved one and the last thing you want to deal with are legal matters it's very comforting to find someone like Jane. Both her and her office staff were polite, knowledgeable, and very efficient throughout my legal process. I was so pleased with the handling of my probate case that I hired Jane to do additional work and the results were five star.

During professional encounter with Ms. Jane Penhaligen, she was very organized, knowledgeable with the law she was assisting me with and extremely professional.

I would not hesitate to recommend Ms. Penhaligen to anybody that can use her legal services.

It is a breath of fresh air to work with Jane, she is informed, compassionate and extremely professional. I endorse her 100%.

I have worked with Jane Penhaligen for a number of years. She has prepared and revised my trust documents as well as assisted on my mother's estate. Throughout the process of working with her, she has been very professional and has offered very sound legal advice on how to handle various situations. It is again time to update my documents so I will contact Jane.
