Mark explained everything we needed to know in a simple and direct manner. The follow up has been excellent. The fact that he includes amendments as needed (within reason!) makes the difference for us.

Mark Drobny was recommended to us by a close friend at church. We wanted to have a Trust and help with Estate Planning. Mark Drobny and his staff could not have been a better fit for us. The process is very detailed and thorough, but when complete we were confident that everything was in its place. We are very grateful for Drobny law office and the individuals that took such good care of us, when we needed that care.

When executing my mother's trust with Mark, my wife and I were so impressed with his guidance and the manner in which he explained the process in simple to understand terms, that we discussed having Mark make some necessary revisions to a trust we already had drawn up by another attorney years ago. It was the best legal decision we had ever made. Not only did Mark point out unnecessary, templated, portions to the trust we had, he also explained how the laws have changed and revised our trust to the current laws and masterfully explained what they were and why they were needed. I wholeheartedly recommend Mark and the Drobny Law Offices. Having used various legal services at multiple law firms, including having two revocable trusts drawn, I can honestly state we would not entrust our estate to anyone else than Drobny Law Offices.

I became a widow in March after losing my husband. Not only was I dealing with emotions and grief, but was inundated with Life Insurance, IRAs, Partnership, etc. I was guided towards Mark Drobny's firm for his professionalism. And I am so glad I made this choice. He was very compassionate and helped me with everything. He gave me financial information and helped update my living trust. Now that it is just me I now need to take care of my children's future. Thank you Mark

Mark S Drobny has been my living trust attorney since 2007. I updated my trust in 2024. In the years that I have dealt with this law firm, all of their work has been high quality. The firm's personnel have consistently been knowledgeable, helpful, and responsive. I've found that they are especially adept at solving problems and offering solutions that I would not have thought of on my own. The firm provides periodic email updates regarding changes in law that might affect my trust. They seem to be committed to providing ongoing support to all customers, without charge, to avert future surprises in the living trusts they provide. I give Mark S Drobny my highest recommendation.

When I needed to update my will and trusts, Mr. Drobny was my first contact because he is trusted by my husband. The process was very efficient, with drafts emailed to me quickly, corrections made promptly by office staff who sent friendly emails whenever questions occurred. Mr. Drobny is easy to talk with, answered my questions clearly, and his questions to me clarified choices to be made.
