Client Reviews

Everything about my experience was well done from the initial conversation with staff to the time with the scheduler and zoom information link leading up the information shared during the free consultation.

We have been clients of Rich Dayton's for many years. He has a lot of great ideas, and has produced excellent estate plans for us. We happened to meet with another estate planning lawyer, and the experience made us appreciate Rich that much more! You won't regret working with him.

My mother is terminally ill and I wanted to ask Rich some questions regarding her Living Trust and Will. Rich was very prompt, patient, and articulate during this process. If I had to hire him for future work as my representative, I wouldn't hesitate. Thank you Rich

Rich Dayton is a wonderfully patient, compassionate and helpful human. I called Mr. Dayton looking for help at how my brother and I need to start making important life decisions for our mother who is showing signs of dementia. His guidance was excellent. He listened, asked us the right questions, helped me use the appropriate terms, and identified a previously established set of legal documents that we just needed to update with Mom's original attorney. I am immensely thankful to Rich for helping us, and I urge you to work with him if you are looking for someone to work with you as a partner in elder law matters.

Rory and his team led us from start to finish through the process of preparing our marital trust. Their communications were professional, timely and generous. We did not feel rushed, but the process was orderly and efficient. The final document was exactly what we wanted.

I met Rich when looking for a good estate planning attorney to refer my real estate clients to. After talking with several attorneys Rich professionalism and expertise made him stand out as our best option. I used him personally for my own estate affairs and found his team to be exceptional in managing the details and answering any questions we had. A true professional in his field

I had a great experience with Richard last year. I wanted to write an review then but I forgot. I still remember vividly how fast and thorough he answered my questions. Not only that, he also offered me important advice that I failed to ask, and let me extend my session without charging extra. It was a breath of fresh among all the stress I had to deal with.

I found Richard Dayton an excellent attorney. I went to him to review my previous trusts and make recommendations that would accommodate my new needs. Due to changes in family relationships he developed a Trust document which dealt with all of my concerns including a special needs trust for one of my sons. He provided me two excellent thorough note books: an "Estate Planning Organizer" containing copies of all my legal documents with explanations and a "To my Trustees" book stating all the processes required to deal with my estate. I have found these extremely helpful and have reviewed them with my other son. After several years I needed answers to several questions which we were able to deal with over the phone and e-mail to my satisfaction. I have recommended him to my friends.

I found myself in a situation where my father was in the hospital and terminally ill. While he had a will, it was very outdated. I needed an attorney that my father could trust as well as be able to handle the situation quickly and efficiently. Rich Dayton fit that bill perfectly. As it turned out, two days after the new will was drafted, my father passed. It meant a lot to me that he was at peace when he died. After that first phone call to Rich, he came directly to the hospital. I was a bit worried as my father wasn’t a particularly trusting man. Honest, patient and caring, Rich gained my father’s confidence; he was able to document how my father wanted his estate distributed. Rich and his staff were so patient, answering all of my questions and explaining everything. It’s been a very difficult situation, one where I’ve had to deal with family conflict. Rich expedited things whenever he could, and then guided me through all the steps involved with Probate administration. I’m so grateful for Rich Dayton. He helped with me through some very difficult times. When I’m ready to put together my own estate plan, he’s the only one I would call.
