My husband and I worked with Mark Freeman to update our out of state trust after moving to Idaho. Mark not only did a great job but also made sure that we understood all of the important elements ofthe trust and other legal documents. He is a pleasure to work with as is his staff. We highly recommend Mark and his firm.
