    Seamless Estate Planning
    Thank you to Lars Kissling and his team for helping me with my estate planning. The process was seamless. He took the time to explain and address any questions I had. I recommend Mr. Kissling for anyone who's looking for knowledgeable and professional estate planning.

    Very helpful and honest
    Very helpful and honest. Due to my father planning on switching his residence to another state, we were informed in our FREE consultation that it's best we wait till father changes residency to another state and contact an estate planner there due to various reasons. He talked us out of doing business with him and then finding out we needed to re-do. I recommend Oak City for those who are permanent residents of NC.
    Craig Moore
    Quick & Seamless End of Life Planning
    Lars was super easy to work with, quick to answer questions or change documents based on our input. I really appreciated the training he sent before our first meeting; it explained a lot and was very clear. Would recommend Oak City Estate Planning to make your end of life planning seamless with a quick turnaround.
    Emily Miller
    Pleased with personal service
    I was quite pleased with the personal service and attention to detail at Oak City. I would recommend Lars to anyone in need of help in this area.
    Gary Bann
    Efficient and thorough process
    Lars Kissling at Oak City Estate Planning made the process of making our will very easy. We had no idea what to do, only that we needed to do something. In the first meeting, he asked us questions to organize our thoughts and showed us what our options were. Using our answers, he drew up a draft, and then we OK'd it and in the next meeting signed it. The process was efficient and thorough. Lars led us through the process explaining everything as we went along. We would recommend Oak City Estate Planning to anyone needing to settle their future estate with confidence.
    Amy Rogers
    Incredibly thoughtful and thorough
    Lars was incredibly thoughtful and thorough. He will help educate you on what you need, not just take your money and throw papers at you. While my needs were simpler than some, he made me feel like my needs were just as important as more complicated needs. I am looking forward to helping my family get their needs met as well with his help!
    Lauren Smith
    Mr. Kissling is kind and efficient
    I needed to update my existing will, durable POA, and Medical POA. I emailed the lawyer who wrote the originals. She had changed firms, and her fees had tripled in 2 years. I called Lars Kissling and one other firm based on reviews. Mr. Kissling seemed more interested in helping me than charging me (though we discussed fees, it was all in presentation). We met, we discussed my needed changes, his fee was much more reasonable than my previous lawyer, so I hired him. Less than a week later I had my fully executed will in hand. Believe the reviews, Mr. Kissling is kind and efficient. A great combination!
    Kelly Nolan
    Very professional lawyer
    Lars is a very professional lawyer. His details about wills were great. The intro video was very informative. He was upfront about what was the best option for me. Would recommend to all who need a will.
    Don Wait
    Very Accommodating
    Good service, fair price, quicker than expected turnaround, and very accommodating for my schedule.
    Robert Lodico
    Great service, prompt turnaround
    Working with Lars was great. All calls were either answered directly or returned promptly, which is something we cannot say about multiple other local estate planning firms. Oak City Estate Planning provided the services required to update our wills/trust/POA after moving to NC from another state, but we really appreciated that Lars pointed out what he didn’t have to update, which kept the costs very reasonable compared to other quotes we had gotten. Great service, prompt turnaround, no hard sell, at a very fair cost. We recommend!
    Kay Gray
    Commitment and Dedication
    We recently had the pleasure of working with Mr. Lars Kissling, and I must say, the experience was exceptional. From the moment we began our consultation, it was clear that he is both highly professional and exceptionally knowledgeable in his field. He took the time to thoroughly understand our situation and provided well-informed advice tailored to our needs. His attention to detail and commitment to his clients were evident throughout the process. Mr. Lars Kissling made sure to keep us updated at every stage, demonstrating a level of dedication that is truly commendable. We felt confident in his abilities, and he addressed all our concerns with patience and clarity. If you're seeking legal assistance, we highly recommend Mr. Lars Kissling for his expertise and professionalism.

    Mr. Kissling was great. He answered all of my questions, was patient, and gave me the answers I needed. If I ever need another attorney, I would contact him because I know if he can't help, he would point me in the right direction. Thank you soooooooo much. Theresa Perry

    A weight has been lifted
    Initially, I was putting off creating our POA and estate plan because it felt overwhelming and daunting. But working with Lars Kissling at Oak City Estate Planning was so easy—I wish I had done this years ago. He was always responsive, promptly addressing our questions and concerns, and he explained everything with transparency and patience. I feel like a weight has been lifted off our shoulders, knowing that our estate is in order—and we'll continue to use Lars to update our estate as needed. Update to this: We had an urgent issue arise and needed to update our estate plan immediately. Lars was super responsive, compassionate, understood what needed to be done, and took care of it.

    Grateful for his counsel
    Contacted Oak City Estate Planning and spoke directly with the lawyer, Mr. Kissling. Briefed him on what I was looking for and because of his knowledge, he advised me that I already had the appropriate trust in place and I only needed to make one simple change/addition. Grateful for his counsel and will gladly reach out to him should I need any additional estate planning and/or execution.
