Eleanor Washburn was very professional and efficient in helping us with our estate planning needs.
Eleanor D. Washburn and Dawn Harp were highly recommended to us by a friend in Savannah, Georgia. After relocating to Kiawah Island, South Carolina, we knew it was time to update our estate plan. We scheduled a consultation with Ms. Washburn at the Charleston Estate Planning Law Firm, where we were warmly greeted by her assistant, Dawn Harp, who promptly attended to our comfort and needs.
Ms. Washburn listened attentively as we outlined our estate planning objectives. We then transferred our existing estate documents from our previous attorney in Savannah. Within just a couple of weeks, Ms. Washburn prepared the necessary updated documents, and we returned to review them. She carefully explained each provision in detail, after which we signed the documents.
We highly recommend Eleanor D. Washburn and the team at Charleston Estate Planning Law Firm for your estate planning needs. Both Ms. Washburn and Ms. Harp consistently exceed expectations while providing professional service at a reasonable cost.

My spouse and I moved to Mt Pleasant from another state and wished to have our will and trust reviewed in order to be compliant with SC laws. It was our good fortune to have the CHS Estate Planning Law Firm recommended to us by several friends.
Not only was our existing document reviewed and updated to meet SC requirements, it was made much more streamlined and easier for our executor to work with.
Eleanor also took good care to make sure that we understood all the changes which were made and the process of executing a will in SC. She and Dawn were so pleasant to work with and brought us great peace of mind.

My husband and I made an appointment with Eleanor Washburn to go over estate and trust planning. We knew what we wanted and needed but we weren’t sure how to implement it. She met with us twice, once to get to know us and the second time to finalize everything. Eleanor is very easy to talk to. She answered all of our questions thoroughly and patiently. She is very knowledgeable in estate/trust law. It seems second nature to her to make sure every detail is correct. Her assistant Dawn is also a pleasure to talk to. Both of them are patient, warm and welcoming. Every single one of our needs were met with little to no delay. Both Eleanor and Dawn have exceeded our expectations. We have already recommended this firm to our family and will be happy to do the same with friends or anyone else who needs these services.

My wife and I recently moved to Charleston, SC from the Finger Lakes region of NYS. We needed to update our estate planning documents, wills/trusts, power of attorney, living will, etc. Our James Island CPA recommended Eleanor for the task. Eleanor provided us with good advice moving forward considering some recent developments in the family. In a couple of weeks, Eleanor and her legal assistant Dawn had all documents ready to go.
It was a pleasure working with Eleanor and Dawn. We will be checking in with them every few years for changes in the laws or in our personal situations.
Always felt very respected when answering our questions!
