Hired Attorney Mr. Erik Helgesen

I have worked with Erick Helgesen several times on different jobs. For myself and for my father. I have recommended him to several people, who have also been very happy with the results he provided. On a more personal note. Erick is so personable that the he puts you at ease right away, I have never felt rushed or unimportant. I will always take my business to him!!

Hired Attorney Mr. Scott Nickle

My son, daughter, and I; had met with a representative of my credit union and a lawyer in Kaysville, Utah -- regarding an addendum to my will and trust. I assigned my credit union to be the executor of my estate and trust; only after being told they didn't charge any fees for doing so, but then finding out when we went for me to sign the paper-work -- they charge 6% per year, for each year retroactively, that they're executor. If I were to live 5 years (I'm 90), that would be 6% of the estate/trust per year; times 5. OMG. Thankfully, my son had contacted Scott Nickle for information regarding the estate addendum; and setup an appointment for us to meet with him. Scott explained all of the impacts it could have, regarding the fees, etc. We went back to Scott's office a week later, for me to sign a new addendum; voiding out the one created a couple weeks before at another law firm. Both of my kids are back to being executors of the estate/trust, thanks to Scott's help!

Hired Attorney Mr. Keith Backman

Keith has been a very important part of my custody negotiations. He is practical and communicates honestly. He works very hard to make sure my best interests are maintained. He has always been on-top of things and well-prepared with suggestions, legal options and all court hearings. I would recommend him to anyone for this type of legal need.
