Testimonials

“I give Leigh Hilton the highest praise as a trustworthy professional. She is friendly and easy to talk to so I know she puts her clients at ease. I appreciate her patience and soft spoken personality. She also can explain things in a way that everyone can understand. She is a jewel. Virginia McDaniel” October 17, 2008

Virginia McDaniel , Director of Resident Services , Good Samaritan Society


We enjoyed working with Leigh Hilton. We knew we needed a will and possibly other documents. We were not sure what all we needed to do for our future.
Leigh was able to answer our questions, as well as give information for our situation. We have peace of mind because all of our documents are ready. Leigh’s office even prepared a wonderful notebook of all documents needed in an emergency. Our family will now have everything they need to take care of business when the time comes.
THANK YOU to Leigh Hilton and all of her staff for making the process simple and our experience such a good one!
- Tommy and Corin Walker


Every time I again start working on my trust book, I continue to realize how fortunate I am again, to have chosen you and your fine staff to assist me with all of my estate plans.
As I work on the book, a sense of peace of mind is very apparent. The on-going addition of the various documents and certifications make me realize what a great help this will be to my now adult children when they become responsible for the disposition of my estate.
And for my two co-trustees, my sons, they already have realized how important the various requirements are! It has made it very helpful for the three of us. My only regret is I wish my husband, Lyle, had known you and your staff, Leigh. He was a “stickler” for being complete and correct in all he did!
It has been a pleasure to work with all of you, and I know your staff is proud of you, too, Leigh.
- Martha J. Springer


Everything was handled with excellence! Everything was very easy for us. They explained everything very well and helped us through it.
- Dean Threadgill


My overall experience was wonderful. They were very thorough and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services.
- Caren Ruthven


…very professional in your business dealings…did not waste time and gave me all the proper details up front including advantages, charges and the procedures to follow…”
- Phil Barber


We recently had the need to update our very out of date will. We were in need of someone who had excellent experience with estate planning. Through our financial planner, who is out of state, we were most fortunate to find the law firm of Leigh Hilton and her wonderful associates. Estate planning is an overwhelming experience, however Leigh and her team made it quite painless. They explained the details in understandable terms for “lay people.” We would highly recommend this wonderful law firm!
- Graham & Elizabeth Kyle


You and your staff recently prepared several documents for me, including my will.
I was very impressed by the friendliness and efficiency of every person I had contact with. Also, I was pleased that they took unhurried time to explain every small detail to me and answered all my questions patiently and thoroughly.
So, I send my most sincere thanks to you and your staff. I will certainly know where to go in the future should I have need of an attorney’s services.
- Jeane Moseley


I appreciated the warm letter your legal assistant wrote a few weeks back.
The death of Harold has been difficult to adjust to – I often still talk to him at night to help end my day on a good note. Your guidance and work on my behalf have been a source of support. I never worried even one minutes about relying on you to walk me through the legal journey – I deeply and sincerely appreciate you and your staff.
- Lessie Perry


Thanks for being so sweet and responsive to my mother. She thinks you hung the moon. After all she’s been through; it is nice to see her feel positive about what is occurring, even if it is just the respectful manner in which you treat her.
- Kathleen Close


We found Leigh Hilton to be very understanding of our legal needs. She is down to earth and easy to relate to. I think Leigh is a very proficient lawyer that offers helpful insight into legal solutions.
-Dick and Sunny Hueholt


I thank you for all you hard work and patience with us.
- Linda McInis


I just wanted to bring this copy of the Denton Record-Chronicle to you and I just wanted to say thank you for all you have done for me and I hope that you will have a very nice Thanksgiving and Christmas.
- Rily C. Patterson


Wow. I want to express my thanks for such a quick and nicely detailed response to our conversation on February 20, 2007. THANK YOU.
You have shown such a spirit of interest, understanding and ability to express procedures for my satisfaction ? this does show great skills in your profession.
I will keep in touch with you. A quote I like: “Action is eloquence…”
Thank you for all you do.
- Gale L. Stevens


Thanks for getting us this information. We will have Pat send it to our membership if she hasn’t already. Your presentation was excellent! I look forward to doing business with you and I hope you are able to get additional business from the rest of our group.
-Tom Mahony
