Gem makes law comprehensible. His understanding of the law coupled with his ability to articulate it to the common man is a winning combination for our company. His nearly 24/7 access fosters a wonderful peace of mind that is so needed and welcomed in today's stressful world.
Upon my wife's passing I realized that my estate planning was completely out whack. I found Gem McDowell on line and he and his organization responded immediately and most competently. Here, four days later I have confidence that my estate is back on track thanks to Mr. McDowell and his staff.
I emailed Gem late one night during Covid stay-at-Home thinking I probably wouldn’t hear back for days or weeks which I was fine with. To my surprise, Gem emailed me immediately and texted me offering to chat in the am. He has helped me with opening my business and getting all my documents, policies, and contracts in place. I would highly recommend Gem and his team to anyone! I feel I’ve made a friend, not just gained an attorney.
I've been a client of Gem McDowell for several years. From the first time we met {after unsatisfactory work performed by another well-known law firm in Charleston} he was thoughtful, efficient, very well informed and did a terrific job in setting up my Family's Trust estate plan. Since then he has done a number of updates to my Trust , Will, power-of-attorney, and Health Directive paperwork all efficiently, and completely, at reasonable prices. His office staff is courteous, responsive and relays messages efficiently. Invariably Gem returns my phone calls and emails promptly. I recommend Gem McDowell without hesitation to anyone requiring family and estate legal work.
Gem was very easy to work with, responsive and patiently answered all our questions. His staff was courteous and persistent in following up with us to make sure we had what we needed.
