- ★★★★★a system upside down
becky · estate planning ·
Sharon Gardner stopped an unneeded guardianship on my uncle and prosecution on me due to untruths that went on for 1.5 years. Sharon turned this nightmare in the courts, which included 4 other lawyers, all seeking huge fees, right side up, in 2.2 months. Sharon held everyone's feet to the fire, and h ad to do the job by herself. Her integrity is impeccable. Shockingly, the system was upside down for us, until Sharon Gardner arrived, and thank goodness she left no stone unturned. The great lawyers ARE still around. She is worth her fees!
- ★★★★★She fought for me. I felt like I was trapped in the probate systems. Court appointees took control of my father's estate.

She stood up to a probate judge who had put his favorite people in charge of my dad and his estate. I couldn't get them out of our lives. Sharon sent them packing in just one hearing. She made herself available to me. She didn't make promises but she sure delivered. Highly recommend.

she was court appointed for my fathers estate and literally took a 2M estate down to nuts and bolts. when she realized what poor condition she had gotten the estate in she bailed and the incompetent judge let her. she did such a poor job she didn't even argue when I asked the judge to stop payment on her fees.

I retained Sharon Gardner to represent me in a trust probate matter here in Houston with respect to obtaining a distribution. I was very unhappy with her services and frankly believe that she violated ethics and the attorney-client priviledge in my case. I found Sharon Gardner to NOT to be trustworth y.

John was incredibly easy to work with. Very flexible and accommodating. Very knowledgeable and able to clearly answer all my questions related to my estate planning. I have recommended John to many of my friends and would absolutely use him again in the future.

Brian · estate planning ·
Mr. Yow advised us on our wills and updated them to fit our current situation. We had some very out of date wills before that would have been awkward to implement. We are very pleased to have our estate in order at this time.
- ★★★★★Honest, professional and compassionate lawyer-priceless!
Barbara · estate planning ·
I hired John because I needed to revise my will. He met with me initially and answered all my questions, then prepared my new documents exactly as requested. It was a professional, smooth and simple process for me all the way. I would recommend his services to my family and friends without reservatio n.

John assisted us with creating a comprehensive estate plan for our family to include wills, powers of attorney, and additional documents required for our situation. We did not have a prior plan. John proved knowledgeable, diligent, and patient in helping us to think through our situation and then dra ft the appropriate documents. In addition, we have consulted John on a couple other occasions. He is thoughtful with his advice and, when outside his area of expertise, resourceful in referring us to his strong network of fellow attorneys. We trust John and will continue to seek his advice.

I had the pleasure of working with John on some family business. He is a true professional who is sympathetic to the needs of his clients, and he conducts his business with class. I would recommend John to friends and family.
