“Allison Wood “got me”. Many experienced lawyers have a difficult time understanding special needs trusts and special needs planning. Allison Wood was able to distill the information that I gave her to prepare a response to an ARDC complaint. Her response not only reflected the substance but also a sense of understanding in favor of the client. The substance and tone of the response accurately reflected my values. The ARDC did not take any other action. ”
