Readers Recommend: Lawyers for Wills and Estate Planning in Champaign-Urbana

July 24, 2015 By From The Editors

lawyersforestateplanningNo parents want to think about who would take care of their child in the event they could not. However, it’s one of the realities of parenting.

Writing a will and doing estate planning may not be fun, but it’s necessary. Our readers have suggestions for Champaign-Urbana area lawyers that can help make the estate planning process easier.

Editor’s note: Chambanamoms does not endorse any of the recommendations listed. The recommendations are listed in the order we received them from our readers on our Facebook Page. 

Specific Attorney Recommendations

Todd Black, Meyer-Capel, Champaign: “We used Tood Black at Meyer Capel and he was great.”

Jeane Gohl-Noice, Gohl-Noice Law, Champaign:  ” Jeane did ours and made it easy.”

Rebecca Wade, Meyer Capel, Champaign: “Rebecca Wade at Meyer Capel was great to work with when we did ours!” “I’d also recommend Rebecca Wade at Meyer Capel.” Rebecca had several mentions by our readers.

Emma Dorantes, Dodd & Maatuka, Champaign: “Emma Dorantes is amazing!”

Chad Beckett, Beckett & Webber, P.C., Champaign:  “Chad Becketts’ office did ours, reasonably priced. He has offices in Urbana and Tuscola.”

Brooke Didier Starks, Meyer Capel, Champaign:  “Brooke has been great to work with.” “Brooke did the best job helping us think through our will and planning!! She was fantastic, highly recommend!” Brooke had several mentions by our readers.

Deb Frank Feinen, Tummelson, Bryan & Knox, Urbana: “Deb Feinen at TBK Law in Urbana is terrific!”  “I was her legal secretary for a number of years, and she is HANDS DOWN the best in the area (in my opinion, of course). My husband and I had our estate planning done by her, and it’s solid. We have a child with special needs as well, so there were many intricate factors to include in the estate planning. She’s very personable and time sensitive to her clients’ needs.” Deb received several recommendations by our readers.

Rusty Freeland, Meyer Capel, Champaign: “We used Rusty Freeland at Meyer Capel 17 years ago and still do everything with him.”

More Advice from our readers regarding estate planning:

“You actually don’t need an attorney at all. You can get free will documents online, write whatever you like in them & have them notarized. It’s all free, all legal and any document you physically sign and date carries weight with a judge, especially a will.”
