“Myself, my law partner, and our probate paralegal have all had the opportunity during the last several years to engage the services of Mr. Michael Hoffman. He has provided prompt and valuable services in the areas of asset valuation and asset liquidation. Several of the engagements have involved unique items of tangible personal property, and Michael has been able to draw from numerous expert services to come up with valuations that have, in a 2016 case, even satisfied the Internal Revenue Service in an otherwise difficult federal estate tax audit.
Furthermore, in a recent probate case, Michael conducted an effective and fair real estate auction. Whether for real property or personal property, our firm will be seeking the services of Mr. Hoffman in all future cases, as we have for the last several years.”
