Ethan Johnson and Hayley helped my dad with estate planning. Ethan even made time to meet with us on his day off because it was the only day that worked with my schedule. They were knowledgeable, courteous, and accommodating. I highly recommend Ethan for your estate planning needs. (source)
Attorney Ethan Johnson and Paralegal Hayley Fingarson performed a much needed update on our estate planning. The experience was very pleasant and hassle free. Young Ethan is very knowledgeable, personable and patient. My wife and I left the office with full understanding of the product and the satisfaction of a job well done. (source)
Ethan J. did an update on our trusts after the death of my spouse. I would highly recommend Ethan. He is professional, knowledgeable and efficient. (source)
We worked with Ethan Johnson on POAs and a Will for my father. During the consult, he was very patient with our questions and answered everything. Paperwork was drawn up within days and signing was done very quickly, efficiently, and respectfully. We don’t have much, but just enough to have this in place. I highly suggest SW&L to anyone in need of these services. Thank you for the peace of mind this has given my father and our family. (source)
