Testimonials

Jim Arenson and his team of attorneys have helped my wife and I out with everything from buying buildings, incorporating businesses, to purchasing a dental practice. They are simply the best. Their personal attention to our matters and their commitment to help us out with contracts, numbers and negotiations, was immeasurable. We honestly don’t know if we would have gotten some things done without them. Plus, they’re good people.

The loss of loved ones is a difficult time, both emotionally and financially. Paying final costs, working through estates, and filing necessary tax forms is overwhelming. Having Jim Radig, an attorney with Arenson Law Firm guide us along these necessary steps alleviated the stress of the unknown, while giving us confidence that these matters were handled legally. Jim expedited the paperwork promptly, treated us with kindness and compassion, and was fair in the fees charged. His professionalism fostered trust and confidence.
