I appreciated that Darwin was local. I had trusted him to create my first will and was confident he could update it for me. He took a lot of time with me making sure I understood how the changes I thought I wanted would affect those I cared about and loved. He answered my many questions patiently, whether face to face or on the phone. I would also like to give a shout out to his secretary, Laura, who was very helpful.

I hired Mr. Vandevender to handle a lawsuit for me after being mauled by a dog and he handled my case with professionalism and compassion. 10/10 would hire him again, and it's safe to say he is my lawyer of choice. Thank you Darwin and Laura for making this journey as painless as possible after the trauma i already had to endure.

Mr Vandevender is professional, courteous, polite and actually listened to our concerns about our legal issue. (We recently had a horrific experience with a well known Lansing firm, so this was amazing for us!) His paralegal, Laura Wollet, is also wonderful to work with. She is kind, listens carefully & was able to schedule an appointment for us in a timely manner. We were given sound advice & will definitely use this law firm in the future for trusts, etc.

Six years ago I went to Mr. Vandevender for help in getting my parents’ wills and other documents in order. He dealt with them with great patience and understanding even meeting Dad in the hospital room to get some things finished. I returned this month to get advice on closing out their estate as they are both now deceased. He not only remembered them but he walked me through the steps I needed to take to deal with the estate, making a difficult time much easier for all involved. Excellent service with compassion.

Mr. Vandevender treated my mom with respect, and answered all her questions. He was very thorough and explained every option for her to consider. The office had the papers finished in a timely manner. I would highly recommend him.

Darwin and his assistant, Laura, are both professional and very easy to work with and communicate with. Darwin has extensive legal knowledge and makes the process very easy. Don’t make the mistake of going to any other attorney.
