I can't speak highly enough of Providence Estate Planning Jamison Bonds and his staff. They are friendly, efficient, and Jamison was not only knowledgeable but also took the time to address all my questions and concerns. If you are looking for a reputable attorney that deals with Estate Planning look no further than Providence.

I had the pleasure of consulting with and having Jamison handle some estate planning and a will for me. You can tell from visiting with him that he truly cares deeply and knows his stuff. Attention to veterans especially. He had our somewhat complicated situation figured out within the time we arrived and left in a way that made our immediate family members confident that our assets were protected. Thank you Jamison and company for being so efficient and delivering caring services for my family.

Thank you for the time you spent explaining the steps to take regarding my mother's trust. You spent a lot of time going over this, which really helped us understand what needs to be done. Also, thank you for helping us establish the trust 12 years ago. It made the process of hospitalization, nursing home admission, and final medical decisions as smooth as could be possible under the circumstances. Having just been through this difficult time, we can see how hard it would have been without these documents in place. Not having to go through probate now puts our minds at ease. God bless you, Karen and Michael Mott

Might be great if you can get an appointment? I’ll never know. I called and submitted an online request a few months ago. No answer, no response. Called again recently and setup an appointment for a phone appointment as I’m out of state. Never got the follow up email that was mentioned but whatever. Appointment time came and went, both their time zone and mine, no call. Things happen so it’s fine, called and made another appointment for a few hours later same day - no call at that appointment time. I’m busy working and have given up, when I get an apology email and a proposal for another time even later in the day. I don’t see the email because I’m busy and then get a missed call while I’m in a meeting. Sigh. So last attempt, cause I understand things come up - I reply and make an appointment for a new day later in the week. No call lol. It’s kind of comical. 4 attempted appointments and no call except the one appointment I never responded to? Not sure I would advise to with a place that can’t manage an appointment, or where the owner is completely unreachable, so I’ll look elsewhere. Just say you aren’t taking new clients or don’t do phone appointments if it’s that overwhelming.

I had an excellent experience with Attorney Jamison Bonds. Although Attorney Bonds was unable to assist me directly with my probate issue, I truly appreciated his professionalism and helpfulness. He took the time to listen to my situation and explained everything in detail. Not only that, he provided two solid recommendations of other professionals who could potentially help. It was clear that he genuinely cared about finding a solution. I’m grateful for his guidance and would recommend him to anyone seeking reliable & passionate legal assistance with probate matters.

Mr. Bonds provides an excellent service with all things related to estate planning. He provides "service after the sale" and encourages you to reach out to him if you have follow-up questions. Even years after providing our estate planning, he continues to provide accurate answers to follow-up questions we have and returns my phone calls and emails in a very professional and timely manner. Your money will be well spent on his services. I have no regrets! And Yes...I am an actual client!

My experience with Providence was rest assured! Jamison Bonds was very kind and welcoming, very professional and definitely seems current in his knowledge of Trusts and Estate Planning; he was able to quickly answer several questions I had, and provide the remedy. Providence was also extremely diligent in getting everything in order. I feel very blessed to have found his Firm.

I first visited with Providence about three years ago with some nursing home questions and other estate planning matters. Mr. Bonds was knowledgeable, and I felt honest with me. He keeps up with current laws, or pending legislation, regarding his field of expertise. I was so impressed, I actually found myself recommending him to other people. Fast forward to last week, and I had to visit with him again on a matter. He was just as kind knowledgeable and helpful. So I decided to leave a written review this time because I think he’s the best elder law and estate planning attorney around.

Response from owner

It can overwhelming trying to figure out how to deal with the financial ramifications that long-term care puts families in. For eleven years, we've helped people like you protect their hard-earned assets while getting their loved ones help paying for the quality nursing home care they deserve. We're happy to have invested in the time to answer your elder law and estate planning questions. If you ever need our assistance again, feel free to reach out. Thank you for your kind words.<br><br>Warm regards,<br>Jamison Bonds

Jamison Bonds and his team were so helpful and did a great job helping our family with our trust. Great knowledge and continued help if we have any questions!

Response from owner

Many times clients are shocked to hear that a Last Will has to go through probate court before their assets pass to the next of kin. You guys have made the wise decision to setup a living trust to skip this process and all the time, headaches and money that goes along with it. We appreciate your trust in ensuring your family has peace of mind over their affairs!<br><br>Warm regards,<br>Jamison Bonds

I would recommend Providence Law Firm to anyone looking for help with estate planning for themselves or elderly parents. Jamison was patient and kind and took the time to thoroughly explain the process and forms to my parents and family members. Every question was answered with respect (sometimes multiple times), and my parents were left feeling that they had control over their future. Thank you Providence for your excellent service.

Response from owner

An estate plan is such a valuable tool but it can be a ticking time bomb if it doesn't keep up with changes in life and aging. We're honored to be trusted by thousands of people like you to help get your estate plan and asset protection affairs in order. Thanks for the kind words.<br><br>Warm regards,<br>Jamison Bonds<br>Fort Smith Attorney

Peace of mind is very important. Jamison presented options and explained methods to make the care of our elder family member as easy as possible during such a stressful time. We recommend the services that Jamison and his team provide.

Response from owner

Estate planning can feel overwhelming. There are a thousands bits of information you've read, people tell you competing stories, and it seems like the more you try and learn the more lost you get. We're happy we could answer your questions with no hassle and no pressure and let you discover what estate planning solution was best for you. At the end of the day it's all about giving families the peace of mind that they deserve. Thanks for your kind words.<br><br>Warm regards,<br>Jamison Bonds<br>Fort Smith lawyer

Mr. Bonds did a good job explaining things and suggesting things I hadn't thought of to make sure that things were carried out the way I wanted them to be carried out, when that time comes. He's very knowledgeable and easy to talk with about what is needed. I recommend him in all your estate planning.

Response from owner

Hi Denise,<br>Glad we had the opportunity to help answer your questions patiently and in plain English. Your loved ones will thank you at how well you're organizing your affairs, as they won't have the cost or hassles of probate court. Take care and thanks for trusting in us.
