“Please let me express my gratitude for your help on my Last Will and Testament. I feel like my Will is finally in a comprehensive place with regards to the attention the Bendelow and Wolfson gave in every detail. My former Will was a temporary Legal Zoom variety and your expertise really pointed out the superficiality that such a document presented for me. You heard my concerns about making estate planning easy and leaving no loose ends for my children on the eventuality of my death. I appreciate your time and consideration. If there are any changes that occur in the next few years, I will be sure to contact you and review the situation. “

“Ted Bendelow is an excellent attorney and counselor. He has provided me an my company with invaluable legal assistance and guidance in resolving several small business related matters including negotiations with my former business partner which resulted in his complete elimination from the business and the elimination of a significant amount of debt incurred by my former partner in the name of the business for personal purposes. He is fair and always conducts himself in a highly professional manner. He focuses on important matters and kept me from worrying about unimportant details during a long and difficult negotiation.”
