Metz + Jones LLC - Chicago, Illinois

Mark A.

I was the Executor of my best friend's will and unexpectedly found myself working with Metz & Jones to manage a probate case during a period of extreme grief. I couldn't be happier with the practical legal counsel, very fair professional fees, and compassion I received from Carol and her team.

It was actually fun to meet with them in their office or virtually.

I had a few hiccups with some very large financial institutions in collecting assets, and it was apparent Metz & Jones was TOTALLY on my side; there's no better feeling when your attorney gets just as enraged as you when a Fortune 500 does not want to play nicely.

Because the probate case went so well under Carol's guidance, my partner and I also engaged Metz & Jones to do our own estate planning. It was so comfortable discussing our end of life wishes in an LGBTQ+ embracing environment. I can't even imagine how awkward that conversation would have been with a straight attorney who, while maybe even an ally, still simply cannot relate to the many nuances of being gay.

If you work with Metz & Jones, which I strongly recommend, it's helpful to schedule meetings at regular intervals, depending on your type of engagement. I found myself making a list of questions as issues would arise, and then we would efficiently knock them out in bi-weekly meetings versus arbitrary email exchanges.

I look forward to working with Metz & Jones in the future; it has been a true delight and I'm very grateful!

Estate planning felt overwhelming to me, but Metz + Jones made it easy. They gave me clear guidance at our initial meeting and responded with great kindness to my anxious emails. I really appreciate them for walking me through this big process!

Carol from Metz & Jones was amazing! This firm is queer-friendly and we reached out to them after Roe v. Wade fell in 2021 to make sure my wife and I had documentation alongside our marriage in case certain states wouldn’t honor a marriage between two women. Carol and her team helped us get our power of attorney, medical power of attorney, estate planning, a trust and will, and any other documentation we might need. They also helped us with a name change! In total, the process took about six weeks and a few thousand dollars (mostly for the name change due to court fees). Super appreciate them! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Metz& Jones helped us with 2 second parent adoptions for my wife and I. They made the process so simple and easy for us and talked us through exactly how it would go and what to expect and all at a fair price! I would recommend them to anyone 10000%!

Last time I used this law firm was for a condo closing and doing my will 17 years ago. Just used them again for my will/trust updates. They are great, responsive, and affordable pricing. I do recommend them highly. Patrick
