Bott & Associates Architects Review

We've used Bott & Associates for years & years... they are extremely prompt, kind, understanding and very trustworthy! It's a very difficult decision to plan for your families needs if you will not be around but decisions everyone is required to make ... no matter if their children are older or younger ... healthy or have special needs ... please do not wait to create a plan you wish to leave as your legacy. Make your wishes known ... put them in writing, make it legal and visit Maritess! Her office will make the process much easier than you ever thought.

I have known Maritess Bott professionally for a number of years. She knows her stuff when it comes to estate planning. She is very approachable and her friendly welcoming demeanor is one you wish everyone had. Her firm does solid work and is timely and reasonable. I highly recommend Maritess Bott for all your families Estate Planning needs.

Maritess Bott and her staff are wonderful and they did a great job helping me to update my trust. She is extremely efficient and knowledgeable.

I want to commend the staff at Bott & Associates for the way in which they administered the signing of the POA documents last week Friday. The document coordinator was extremely helpful to my parents, and she offered me very sage advice as I continue the journey of caring for them at this time in their lives ("Take care of yourself, so you can take care of them.")

Also, I wanted to mention that I was equally impressed (and inspired!) by Marites's library and offer to take any books that a person saw as appealing. What a wonderful way to share her faith and views! My mom was not comfortable with me taking anything from the office, or I would have gladly taken a couple of the books to some family and friends that could use a different perspective.

My experience has been great. Very pleasant and friendly. Would definitely recommend to a friend.

Bott and Associates has been immensely helpful in preparing our estate plans for our family, even during the current pandemic situation. They provided an extremely safe environment and made sure we felt comfortable during the signing.

She came highly recommended when we had to address estate issues after my wife s parents both passed without wills. The firm was extremely responsive and empathetic, and made the process simple.

Maritess Bott is an outstanding attorney. Her firm prepared a complete estate plan for me and my wife. She worked out all the details for us. One of her strengths is the ability to explain thing in easy to understand terms which we really appreciated. You will love the job she'll do for you. I highly recommend Maritess and her firm.

Everyone was kind, welcoming, and efficient. We feel at ease with this practice, and would recommend without hesitation.

During this pandemic, all 3 of the lawyers came out to my Mom's condo to meet her talking through patio doors and getting documents signed! All that extra effort after two Zoom videos! This group went above & beyond that I am referring others in my family to them! Thank you Bott & Associates for making all that has to get accomplished with my elderly mother so easy!!

Professional, knowledgeable and prompt services. Mrs. Bott was caring in handling the delicate matters we presented her.

Maritess and her team have been so incredibly helpful and represent a tremendous resource. Tana is friendly in every interaction. Maritess is professional and warm. The whole crew put our family at ease and did not mind all of the questions we had. As small business owners and parents, we had many concerns and a lot of questions on what if s and worst case scenarios. We highly recommend the services here at Bott & Associates.

Very friendly, professional law firm. Wonderful job at listening to our wants and needs. Job was well done.

Bott and associates offers financial planning services. My husband and I are very happy with the results and the customer service they provide.

Overall we had a great experience with everyone that works at Bott & Associates. We knew that it was very important to get our estate planning in order and they made it easy. Even during this difficult time, everything was able to be done virtually or in an appropriate (ie. socially distant/mask wearing) way.

Excellent service. The associates really care about your wishes and want to implement your trust plans the way you want them.

Maritess is incredibly professional, easy to work with and her staff is extremely knowledgeable and attentive. You can rely on them to have your best interests at heart and guide you through the legal process.

I had a wonderful experience with Maritess and her entire team. They are professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. They answered all of my questions, and ensured that all of my interests were well taken care of. I m looking forward to maintaining my relationship with her organization for a long time!

The set up of the trust went smoothly until I tried to get the papers back for my deceased husband's previous living trust. The office person said they would mail me the new and old trust. Never got the old trust. When I tried to transfer my husband's car to my trust, I needed the old trust papers. Each person who answered the phone had a different excuse for why they could not get the papers to me. The computers were down, they needed to talk to Ms. Bott and she was at lunch, they didn't know where the papers were, they would call me back.....Never called back and this is the second time I could not get Ms. Bott or her office to answer a simple question. This just highlights that once you pay for the service - don't even think of calling the office again with a question or concern. It would seem to be all about the $$$$. I regret using her services.

I received a referral to this firm for my partner. Complete lack of communication. At one point for a month-long period. Then it could be days or weeks for a response. Lack of direction and honesty in question. Statements made by attorney and staff conflict with the billing statement. My partner was not informed that distribution checks were received until a week or more later and when my partner brought it up, was told "they came today" by staff when not the case. He received no apologies, just high legal fees with little done. Rush work done not representing all needs he discussed in the first place and letter not presented before it was sent out as previously discussed. I had to take time off work on several occasions to discuss the ongoing saga with the referral company and finally the staff at the office contacted my partner. More stressful beyond belief when obtaining an attorney should be eliminating that factor. Huge mistake.

As a response to the below, no you are not sorry. This is false like the lies we received from the attorney. If that were true you would have made an effort to correct many of the wrongs but you did not and just followed your accord doing whatever you pleased, NONE of which we asked for. Sending letters out before we even gave our approval which were shoddy and false. You did absolutely nothing in regards to requesting where all the missing items and money went. What the h___ did we send you pictures or details of the missing items for? Planning on closing an estate you were never asked to close in the first place doing not one d___ thing that was asked of you forcing us to contact the other attorney? You were as useless as hiring a brick wall because you did absolutely nothing we asked nor provided timelines of when we could still contest items. You didn't even advise filing a police report for theft on missing items. We are now contacting police years later and have to explain we had such an inept attorney who advised basically nothing in this regard or any other. For all the problems, you should be paying us.

And when I gave them a difficult time for doing absolutely nothing, they got snotty because the client was my minor children and not me. Hello I m the mother representing the interests of those minors as you certainly failed to do so. We would have accomplished more without you and your detrimental service which led to losses. Not one thing gained by using this attorney- only losses.

This attorney was so terrible and if what we hired her for was beyond her scope (which it apparently was) she should have never taken our case. I question the likely false positive reviews here after everything she put our family through.

Excellent job by the team at Bott & Accos. An important part of our life is now complete thanks to the team. Hi highly recommend them, everything was explained in layman s terms so we could understand all the information. Very professional group of people.

It was a pleasure to work with Bott and associates. I really admired their passion for their work and their clients. The office is very warm, friendly and professional.

My wife and I attended one of Maritess Bott s presentations and we were extremely impressed by her knowledge of living trusts and money management. We are so happy with her expertise we have recommended her to many of our friends. She knows her stuff God bless her.

My experience with Bott & Associates was exceptional. Everything was explained to me to me clearly. Recommendations were made that I never thought of. I would highly recommend Bott & Associates.

We were referred by a friend. We were given some information via e-mail i.e. a video relating to the process/product(s) we were interested in. The video was very helpful. At the appointment we were treated very respectfully. The process was not rushed and they took the time to ask questions and got to know us and what our thoughts were. They guided us through the entire process. Upon the signing of the documents, again, they took the time to thoroughly go through everything and answer any questions we had. Any changes were made on the spot. This is not a pleasant or easy process to go through but they made us feel at ease and really understood what we were going through. When we left the signing we felt everything was in place, the way we wanted it. They are great people to work with.

Called them to help with an account of mine. They were very kind fast ans efficient. They worked with me to do everything the way I wanted them to.

After my husband passed away, I needed to see a lawyer regarding some legal matters and to create my will. The staff at Bott & Associates were kind, caring and understanding. They helped make the process much easier than I expected and answered all of my questions.

I endorse this lawyer. Maritess really cares about her clients and her business. Highly recommend!!

My wife and I met with Maritess to find out what we need to have done to protect our assets and make sure our wishes would be followed. She was very caring and knowable with the question she asked us. Some of them we didn t even think. When we did understand anything she explained to us why. After the meeting her office created the documents we needed and met with us again to reviewed to make sure it was what we wanted. If you are looking for someone that care about you and what you want done with your estate Bott & Associates is the firm to call. Thank you Maritess.

Maritess is one of the finest lawyers that I have met! She is available, down to earth, and has compassion that she extends to all that she encounters. My husband and I had virtual meetings that were super. Her nature came out immediately and not only did we have an outstanding review, but she is a friend! Her legal work is fantastic!

I will be referring my friends!

Working with Botts was a great experience! When having the difficult discussions about estate planning they eased our mind right away. They were quick with email responses and phone calls.

You're in great hands with Botts!
