“We began our journey to complete a succession for my dad that was beyond the due date. Since my dad passed in 1998, it was difficult to gather the necessary information. Morgan Field patiently guided us through the process. The succession was completed last year and all heirs were satisfied.
The agreements and hourly costs were fair and within the budget.
We are so grateful for the ease of communication, the carefully written documents, the opportunity for complete the legal obligations without multiple trips to Baton Rouge and the ongoing assistance after all documents were approved and entered into judgment with minor issues that cropped up in the year following the judgment.
We highly recommend Morgan Field.” – Pat Sharp (Google Review)
“I live out of state and stopped into Field Law while visiting family, I stopped into Field Law to inquire about a succession. It took time to research, plus there were hurricanes and covid to work around. Once finished I have received a thorough packet of information that was needed. The firm was responsive, friendly employees, and were quick to respond by email or phone. I am glad I found this firm.” – Pam Carr (Google Review)
