Clancy & Associates is a vital and necessary element in your journey to securing your child's future well-being if they have disabilities! Please plan now to get a trust or other legal documents in place. The political climate is shifting too fast to ignore it any longer. Katie knows her stuff, and has been invested in our community for decades. She will guide you through the red tape and get you sleeping well at night knowing your child is taken care of!

My experience with Clancy and Associates was highly disappointing due to their poor communication and lack of thoroughness. The initial draft of the guardianship documents they provided did not include me as a legal guardian, which was the entire purpose of seeking their services. Despite my explicit request to be included in all email correspondence, they repeatedly failed to do so, directing all communication to only my son's mother instead.

On one occasion, when I reached out with a question via email, they unnecessarily included her in their response. While their communication regarding the invoice was prompt, their willingness to provide actual guidance was lacking. When I reached out with one final question, I was told their service was complete and they could no longer assist me.

The inadequate communication and lack of support are particularly concerning given the importance of securing appropriate guardianship for my son, who has autism. Unfortunately, Clancy and Associates left me feeling isolated throughout the process. Considering their $3,500 fee, you may be better off using LegalZoom, where at least the expectations are clear and the costs are significantly lower.

Working with Clancy & Associates means working with a team of intelligent professionals who are patient, listen carefully, and who provide strategic legal advice. They earned my trust through the results they obtained for me and my children. Their advocacy was consistent and my family was well received in every respect of the law firm's actions, from intake to billing to execution. I highly recommend this law firm.

Katie and her team skillfully and compassionately prepared our estate planning, including a trust for our disabled child. Throughout the process they provided excellent advice and helped us to feel confident that we were taking all the steps necessary to ensure that our disabled child as well as our other child will be well taken care of when my husband and I are no longer here to care for them. Highly Recommended!

Kate Devine Schye at Clancy & Associates came highly recommended to me, and after working with her, I understand why.

Kate is very knowledgable and answered all of my questions until I felt comfortable with my estate plan, and most importantly, Kate and the other attorneys at Clancy & Associates specialize in Special Needs planning.

I highly recommend Kate and Clancy & Associates.

The Clancy Team helped us set up a Special Needs Trust Fund for our adult child. Katie and her staff led us through the process with empathy, great communication, attention to detail, and superb direction and follow through. If only all professionals were as amazing as their team. Thank you for helping us conquer an over-whelming task, and for providing us with complete confidence in your services. Dawn & Mike J

Clancy & Associates and the team of Kaye Devine Schye provided us with everything we needed, and things we didn't even know we needed, to establish POA's, Last Wills and most importantly a Special Needs Trust for our adult son. From our first online contact throughout the entire process the team handled every step professionally, with personal care, understanding and a load of patience! We feared we were late in establishing the trust for our son but were immediately put at ease as Kate walked us through each step and educated us on the reasons they were needed. Heather Geils walked us through technical glitches we experienced on our end and was always patient, professional and caring. I will and have, recommended this law group to others in our situation. Overall, a tremendous group to work with who provides a specific need requirement and understands the worries of parents with special needs kids-no matter their age. Thank you to the entire team!
