Two hours that can change your life.

I needed help qualifying my husband for Medicaid to help with his dementia. David Carrier and his employees are very professional and knew exactly what to do to accomplish this. Blair Davis lead me thru the process, submitted the application and we were approved 2 months later. It was a time when I didn't know how I was going to get help and David Carrier Law knew exactly what to do. God bless them all.

Jody J.

My wife and I attended the LifePlan Workshop and meet with Bryan Narlock an attorney on David Carrier's team. Both David and Bryan showed us how we can protect your assets and we never felt pressured to purchase their services.

John W.

Met with Jim Henke today. He was very empathetic when I told him about my personal situation; extremely thorough as we reviewed my existing estate plan and financial information; and made thoughtful suggestions to protect my assets. He's a good listener and very helpful.

Terri M. is great! We may have driven her crazy with our questions, but she helped us along. We were very happy with her and her patience with us. Also, saw Jim H. for a different matter. Nice guy, friendly, and explains things so you can understand. Good law office with very reliable people!!

Ben and Barb

The most compassionate, caring, and knowledgeable "family" of people I was blessed to be referred to. And, of course, it really IS a small world! Thanks for everything.

Serilnina D.

I have had two occasions to work with Carrier Law recently. On both occasions I spoke with Terri Macklin. She was very helpful, very easy to talk to and she provided me with the answers I needed. Terri offered me options and suggestions that made navigating my job as Trustee, much easier. It was great working with you, Terri. Thank you for making this process much more understable.

Sue K.

I went in for my review after all of the COVID mess that has been going on. They contacted me to set up an appointment and I did just that. ATTORNEY James Henke took all my questions and answered them. He also gave me some more insight and gave me confidence that even after my wife's death, that my Trust would still be effective. He was very sharp and helpful. He Even gave me Condolences on my wife's passing. He assured me that my Adult Children could come there for help even after my death or my incapacitated state, for help and guidance. He was punctual, helpful and reassuring. They did not charge me for anything, because everything was bascially the same after my wife's passing.. Thank you for your expertise and making me feel comfortable!! God Bless You!!

Charles J.

He explained all the services his office provides and how they can protect our assets during our lifetimes and after our deaths. It was a very enjoyable meeting and although we chose to purchase some of his services, we did not feel pressured at all to do so. The free gifts for becoming clients were a nice surprise!

We worked with Bill Bereza at Carrier for the estate planning of both our family and my mother-in-law. Bill was thoughtful, attentive, and personable.

Client Success Stories…

We were very happy with the information at the workshop on Estate Planning [LifePlan workshop]. Amanda was very helpful in explaining the options we could choose from to protect our assets from excessive taxes.

All questions were answered in depth and in a manner that was very understandable. I left feeling confident that we can contact them at any time for help navigating the system.

The staff are incredibly professional. My mother was treated with utmost respect. Her paperwork was organized and concise. I dealt with David and Jim and they spoke in terms my mother and I could understand.

I was totally lost when my husband’s dementia got bad. David and his group helped me feel in control again. They are there to help me whenever I need them. I should have done this sooner.

Perfect balance of pleasant and professional. Starting with workshops with targeted info, to chit chat with David (and all the staff we met) – great experience. Thank you!

My husband and I just returned from your workshop in Portage…We are so pleased we attended and came away with so much information and insight. The workshop was well organized, well presented and your staff was wonderful. Patrick made things fun, and as he promised, the time flew by. Thanks you again for 2 very well spent hours.

Donna & Stephanie are extremely professional, on top of everything, friendly and just a joy to work with. Very prompt on phone calls, emails, etc. I am very thankful for these two people!

We have been extremely pleased with the professional service of David and the staff. It has been a pleasure working with everyone to make sure our future is secure. David was also very helpful finding an out of state attorney to help our parent’s address their Elder law needs.
