Ferguson Widmayer & Clark PC

Our attorney, Mara Kent, is who I refer to as "the kind of attorney you need". Mara is a top-notch Estate Planning attorney who understands the laws and latest developments that effect nearly every Michigan resident and especially Elder Care planning. She has put together a valuable team of paralegals and assistants who all prepare you to protect your assets. I have enjoyed working with her for our family's needs. She explains topics thoroughly and speaks in plain English. She is personable and responsive. I highly recommend Mara Kent and Ferguson Widmayer & Clark PC. (and the firm has their own private parking lot in downtown Ann Arbor!)

It was truly a pleasure working with Mara and her team. Mara's office provided a stress-free environment during a straining time, taking care of my parents' estate planning! The communication was quick & thorough; the documentation was clear and manageable. Mara took the time to review all options, answered all of our questions, and ensured my parents felt comfortable. All payment options were made clear up front without any hidden costs. I highly recommend working with Mara for her utmost professionalism and compassion.

Approximately 5 years ago I had the pleasure of meeting Mara and Alyssa. They were both amazing and helped me navigate a very difficult in my life. Fast forward to most recently and once again they both guided me through updating my entire Estate Plan and Trust. From the moment I met Mara and Alyssa I knew I was in great hands. Their professionalism, expertise, sound advice and genuine compassion is unremarkable. They take the time to listen, answer questions and explain each document so it's easy to understand and I am able to make sound decisions. I highly recommend working with this firm, specifically Mara Kent and Alyssa. They're the BEST!

Mara and the entire team at the firm could not have been more friendly, professional and receptive to our needs. We explained what we needed and were patiently and expertly guided to just the right legal coverages we needed for our situation. From expert advice and advance drafts for us to review at our own pace, down to a courtesy text about some last minute construction that popped up on the day of our appointment, everyone was looking after our best interests. Thank you for the peace of mind you have provided our family. We will be recommending you to every friend and family member who needs estate planning!

Highly recommend! We worked with Mara Kent for our Estate Planning and Family Trust. She was a pleasure to work with. It was clear from the start that she was an expert in this area and I have full confidence in both her expertise and quality of the document package we received as a result. She answered every question in detail and took the time to discuss thoroughly. We left our final meeting with a robust package of Estate and Trust documents, and full confidence/peace of mind that we have everything in order. Highly recommend working with this firm and specifically Mara Kent.

I never thought setting up a Trust would have such a profound impact on me, but working with Mara was an absolute game-changer. At a time when I was feeling overwhelmed by significant life changes, she was there to expertly guide me through the process of setting up a trust. Mara herself was wonderful to work with—competent, skilled, and efficient, yet kind and respectful. She took time to get to know me and made me feel important, even though my assets might not be as substantial as most people. I now have a solid plan in place for my loved ones. It's a level of comfort that's hard to put into words, but I am so grateful this is done. If you're on the fence about whether or not you need a trust, I highly recommend reaching out to Mara.

I cannot say enough about Mara and her services. When my parents passed away within one month of each other, Mara and her associates helped me navigate probate, the courts and all the documents that needed to be filed. Everything. She explains complicated issues, laws and procedures so that you can actually understand them. She was so wonderful when my parents died, that my husband and I used her again for our estate, living wills, POA's etc. Again, a very complicated endeavor that she made easy! I cannot recommend her and her firm enough.
