We have been a client of the Law Firm of Kavesh, Minor & Otis for decades. Their knowledge and skill in preparing and executing Living Trust inspires confidence. We appreciate their regular update seminars and the offer of free evaluation of our estate plan every 3 years. Elaine B.

Great presentation that covers many of the common and not so common scenarios and protection options. I would definitely recommend for anyone is thinking about creating or reviewing their trust. Shaune K.

Kavesh, Minor & Otis provided a lot of initial information regarding living trusts and estate planning through their webinar. Consultation with Peter Keon helped guide me through the process, my options and create my living trust. I feel more secure knowing I have things in order. I highly recommend Kavesh, Minor & Otis to others who are considering a living trust. Tracy W.

After the passing of both my parents, father in 2018 and mother in 2020, I decided it was time for me to establish a living trust. The living trust webinar was very informative. I contacted the firm to schedule a consultation with Peter Keon. Peter was very thorough and responsive to my needs in creating a living trust. As we were still under COVID-19 limitations at the time, we were able to accomplish everything via phone conversations and email. I highly recommend Kavesh, Minor & Otis to anyone who wants to create a living trust or have a living trust that may need updating. Tracy W.

My experience was great. I signed for a webinar and later I met Peter and he answered all my questions . I highly recommend him for a consultation and planning. Maria A.
