Harvell and Collins have been helping me and my sister with my Mother and Fathers estate. It was a complicated estate that required a lot of work and patience. Cecil and his staff have always been very responsive to our needs. Their quality of service and communication is outstanding.

Hired Attorney Andrew G. Foster

I met with Andrew Foster to review my will, estate planning, trust planning and powers of attorney. I found Andrew to foster a most professional posture while communicating to me clearly in layman terms that I understood. Andrew is very intelligent in his fields of expertise and was able to provide a solid group of products that will ensure the protection, safety and stability of my children's welfare for many years to come. I consider Andrew as "The Best of The Best" in his field.

Hired Attorney Wesley A. Collins

Mr. Collins represented my wife and I in a civil suit. It was the first time in our lives that we were the defendants in such an action. I have witnessed many lawyers during my 75 years but have never witnessed a more calm, cool, collected lawyer who had a thorough knowledge of all the facts in our case and had those facts both in his head and in his well prepared exhibits. In our opinion there are 5 words to describe Mr. Collins and those are "the man is a genius."

Hired Attorney Cecil S. Harvell

Cecil Harvell is the best attorney I've ever encountered. He treated my elderly mother with dignity and respect. He listened and made certain that he understood all of her concerns, fears and desires for her future. He went to great lengths to protect her from anyone trying to control her and her assets. He is extremely knowledgeable, concerned for his client, easy to understand, comfortable to talk to, professional and very likeable. He's God's gift to the elderly! He's the very best there is!

Attorney Andrew Foster agreed to accept a complex Estate case that was in an advanced stage of being processed by the court, making it more complicated than if he'd been involved from the beginning. He was extremely knowledgeable and (equally important to me as the stressed-out Executor!) wonderful to work with. He explained things clearly, responded promptly when I emailed him with questions, was thoughtful and made the process much easier for me. I recommend him highly.

Should you be seeking an estate attorney who demonstrates a remarkably keen ability to work with a client using not only legal skills but the willingness to be empathic regarding who you are as an individual, Cecil is the man to hire. My wife and I have known Cecil for over twenty years. He has been on the spot for us through thick and thin making adjustments to our estate needs by being that third party who can negotiate us through whatever problem may have arisen.
