Experiences From Our Happy Clients

We had been looking for a law firm to help us with asset protection and revamping some trusts. We had met and worked with several lawyers but in the end were very disappointed. We happened to accept an invitation to meet Josh Dorsey and Michael Scott at a presentation of the company. We were extremely impressed and have been more than pleased ever since. They listened to our concerns and needs and devised a plan to meet all of them and explain additional documents that were extremely important. To this day, I am so thankful we are working with this firm and would highly recommend them.- Cynthia A.

I will say Dorcey Law Firm is amazing!!! I called on a Monday it was around 4:30pm so of course I didn't get a call back that day. However, first thing the next day I got a call from Carrie (So wonderful and so helpful) she put me on the calendar with Erica Johnson the following week. I have to give a RAVE review about Erica (She is fabulous, knowledgeable, understanding and communicates so well even if you ask the question more than once). When I first met Erica she was so professional and knew what she was talking about. I felt comfortable in her answers to my questions and was grateful I was scheduled with her. When you think attorneys you think all they will want is your money, this is not the case here at Dorcey Law. The price for the items I was asking for was reasonable and fair. The professionalism of the staff and Erica was by far some of the best service from a law firm I have every gotten. IM GLAD TO SAY I AM MORE THAN HAPPY WITH ERICA, THE GIRLS AT THE FRONT, CARRIE & JUST THE EXPERIENCE OVERALL!!!!! Huge THANK YOU!!!! If you ever need an estate lawyer call Dorcey Law!!!!- Brent M.
