She is kind, patient, explains everything in such detail in a very easy to understand way that it makes you realize why it is important to have estate planning in place.
The attention to detail, the presentation of the estate planning documents in a beautiful binder was the cherry on top.
I called several attorneys to inquire about this important process and Staci stood out from the rest and went above and beyond what I was expecting.
There is a reason she has so many excellent reviews, and I had the pleasure of experiencing it.
The whole process from initial phone call to final meeting was perfection and super smooth, I will be referring all my friends and colleagues to her as we need more attorney's who care about their clients like Staci!
Please do not waste your time with anyone else, call Staci for all your estate planning needs, she is truly impressive.
We highly recommend Staci and the firm.
I highly recommend her to anyone looking to set up an Estate Planning.
Being close to my retirement on June 30, 2018 I decided to take advantage of my ARAG Legal Benefits membership as a Miami-Dade County employee, and looked for an Attorney to do my Estate Planning.By looking at the ARAG choices for Estate Planning Attorneys in my Broward County area I chose Staci Hershey, Esq. at the HERSHEY LAW FIRM P.A., based on her professional background and experience, and on June 5 made an appointment for June 11, 2018.
On June 5 she sent me an email with the Estate Planning Questionnaire for setting up a Last Will and Testament and the Healthcare Directives Questionnaire to set up the incapacity documents (Durable Power of Attorney, Healthcare Surrogate and Living Will).
At the appointment, attended also by my wife and my daughter, I filled out a form with my personal information, family members, important family questions, advisors, concerns, real estate and other assets, bank accounts, stocks and bonds, retirement plans, etc.
Then I was provided with a FLOW CHART to avoid Probate and estate taxes, based on which my portfolio was to include the following documents:
Last Will and Testament (x2),
Durable Power of Attorney (x2),
Healthcare Surrogate (x2),
Living Will (x2),
HIPPA release (x2),
Tangible Personal Property Memorandum,
Enhanced Life Estate Deed (a/k/a Lady Bird Deed), to transfer the house to my daughter when I pass away.
I received these documents in an email the following day along with an Estate Planning Portfolio and a Letter of Engagement to be returned signed by me.
On the last appointment set up for June 29 she went over all documents line by line answering all our questions and we signed the documents.
The same day I received by email all the executed documents but the Enhanced Life Estate Deed (a/k/a Lady Bird Deed) which was to be mailed to me once recorded by the Broward County.
The email also contained a detailed list of remainders of things for me to follow up to complete the Estate Planning Portfolio, like accounts beneficiaries, etc.
Thank you so much!
Most people, including myself, dread and avoid Estate planning altogether because they think it's too complicated or that they don't need a plan. I am happy I now have a plan in place as it takes a huge amount of burden off my family in the future when they may not have the ability to handle an estate due to grief of my passing. I love that it makes things easy and avoids court so I can maximize the amount of money that my family can keep as well as lessen the amount of work they have to handle after my passing!
Staci explained everything so that it was easy to understand and was very responsive in email when I needed to reschedule an appointment or ask a question.
I will highly recommend her to my family members as well as any friends looking to have this daunting process be as easy as possible!
From the first call to set up an appointment to the delivery of the originals, Staci was a delight. She patiently explained everything to us.
She was on time and prepared for our appointments.
She honored her commitments.
The first draft of our documents showed that she really listened to what we wanted.
Estate planning is one of the most important things you need to do. Luckily, I found Staci and now it is done! What a relief.
Today, it is most important to have both credibility and integrity. Not only would I recommend Staci to others, I have previously and will continue to do so.

of family members in 3 states and 2 different countries. What could have been a very very difficult, time consuming, stressful and expensive probate case was handled with sensitivity, compassion and expertise that far exceeded my expectations. I do not comment very often but this
emotional and exhausting probate case was settled with no will and not a lot of input or cooperation from the other family members. Hershey Law finalized this case reasonably , in price and and as quick as the courts schedule would allow. I am forever GRATEFUL for Ms. Hershey resolving this emotionally draining case and our family can move on.. Again, Thank you.
My wife and I would refer her services to anyone without question.
UPDATE September 5, 2017: We set up and executed our trust yesterday. Ms. Hershey continued to make the process of estate planning simple and seamless for my wife and I. We have continued to keep in touch with her and will continue to work with Ms. Hershey for any of our planning needs. Very highly recommended without any reservation. She is just amazing.
Durable Power of Attorney, Healthcare Surrogate, Living Will,
HIPAA Release and Enhanced Life Estate Deed. I would totally refer her services to my friends, family or colleagues.
She provided a clear overview of the process and the work she would do. And she kept us informed of her progress. We were very pleased with Staci's work and would gladly recommend her to others.
We were extremely pleased with her legal advice and we thank her for being there for us.
