“After my 18yo son passed I had no idea what to do. I was going around and around in circles, getting nowhere. I came across simplyEstate and found all the information and direction I needed. Stephan was extremely helpful and even followed up with more info.
Thank you for making an incredibly painful experience a little easier.”

5/5

“Losing a loved one is emotionally very difficult. Being faced shortly after with another difficult task as Executor can be overwhelming, especially if the estate is complex.  Having the simplyEstate guidelines at hand made the task much easier to navigate with confidence and accuracy.”
