Posted on Google Amy MeachamMay 5, 2026. Very professional and knowledgeable.Posted on Google Hunter WimmerMarch 27, 2026. [Financial folks have commented on how comprehensive and succinct my mom's estate package was. Her estate was settled in less than 4 months after her death] ... Robyn and her crew made this process incredibly easy. The documentation they drew up (will, trust, POA, and AMD) was very easy to understand as a layperson and very easy to execute — especially the will part (tip: have one person be the executor and trustee – and have them handle all of the personal effects/cars/jewelry. Robyn will explain). They were also available "after the sale" to help me through the process of settling the estate with very actionable and practical advice that saved me heartache and headache. They have a no-nonsense and very "real" way of constructing language that is clear and purposeful without the bloviated lawyer tone. On the flip side, my father in Florida paid half as much but I've had to pay other lawyers 20X as much to sort through the mess he left... and they can turn 12 words into 250 and charge you double for each vowel. Do it right the first time, because you don't get a do-over with this stuff. If you're looking for a comprehensive, simple, supportive estate-package, Robyn is the person to turn to. If you hate your kids and want to inflict pain after your death, prompting your kids to burn photos of you, I've got a guy in Vero Beach, FL you can call (rhymes with "dawn").Posted on Google Ann HawleyFebruary 19, 2026. Having been unaccustomed to working with attorneys, I was a little apprehensive on my first meeting with Robyn Smith Ellis and her staff. They all made me very comfortable and at ease. Robyn was quick to understand the reason for my visit, and did some research we both could see on her big screen. She would need to obtain some information from the Courts before we meet again. I also needed to set up my will, POA and other estate papers. These were ready to peruse, make any necessary updates and sign at my next visit, along with the main reason for my initial visit. I would recommend Robyn Smith Ellis and her competent team for any need you may have, Elder law, family or business.Posted on Google Jeff MartinFebruary 6, 2026.
