I highly recommend Bonnie with no reservations whatsoever.”
“Bonnie Lawston assisted our family in resolving a Colorado estate matter successfully. After getting suspiciously incorrect legal advice from a Colorado attorney, we turned to Ms. Lawston for help. What an amazing attorney. She is knowledgeable, has a thorough understanding of probate and estate law and went above and beyond to get the answers and provide the guidance we needed.”

Her integrity is unmatched and we have recommended her to friends and family multiple times over the years. If you need an attorney for estate planning and probate, look no further.”
“Bonnie was absolutely vital, allowing me to execute the dictates within a relative's will. I live in Florida and the deceased in NY. She handled all the details, got the myriad of convoluted and ambiguous forms completed and kept me informed at every step. She even had an accountant versed in these taxes consult with my tax preparer. If you want the will processed professionally and minimize the inevitable stress, do not hesitate to contact Bonnie.”
