Reviews And Testimonials

A five star review for Right Size Law and David Taylor. David drew up a will and a trust for me and I found his work outstanding. He was extraordinarily thorough; provided comprehensive yet realistic solutions to problems such as how to take care of pets; patiently explained why certain things were done as they were; met deadlines; and provided assistance beyond the scope of just writing documents. I opted to transfer items into the trust myself and David provided me with the necessary guidance at no extra cost. I needed a document notarized ASAP and David saw that it happened. I also appreciate David’s self-assumed follow-through: after a specified time period he will be contacting me to check on how I am doing in transferring items to the trust. I recommend Right Size Law and David Taylor without a moment’s hesitation for wills and other tasks associated with getting personal finances in order.

Judith H., Capitol Hill

Right Size Law Attorney, David Taylor, is a great resource for couples, especially , who want to benefit from a comprehensive estate plan. This is David Taylor's strong suit.

Consider the many moving pieces associated with estate planning, it is a genuite asset to have David and his team on hand to take the lead.

C. Dalton, Capitol Hill

David provided all the information and help we needed to complete our Estate Plan. He was very patient with our questions and guided us through the entire process. We wanted to make things as easy as possible for our children for when the time comes and are confident that we have accomplished our goal. We are relieved that our affairs are in order and can carry on enjoying our retirement with that knowledge.

​Upon returning to DC in late 2022, when we were looking for a lawyer who was familiar with drawing up a trust agreement and "will' matters, a senior member of the executive board of the Waterfront Village (a primarily retirement group residing in southwest Washington, DC) highly recommended David Taylor of Right Size Law firm located on Capitol Hill. We finally got around to calling Mr. Taylor after Thanksgiving of last year and here we are - only a few months later - very happy with the outcome of our discussions with Mr. Taylor and pleased to highly recommend him and his staff for their effort in setting up our trust and preparation of associated documents such as wills and powers of attorneys. On a rating system of five stars, we would give Mr. Taylor and Right Size Law firm, five gold stars.

Charles and Wilbur, SW DC

Several years ago, I took one of David's seminars on Estate Planning. Shortly thereafter David set up a Trust regarding property I own. I recently added a second property to the Trust. Now I am adding additional assets. All along David has instructed me on the process, answered many questions, (sometimes more than once) and made me feel very comfortable. I would recommend Right Size Law, PLLC to others who are interested planning their estates.

Patty P., Washington, DC

We found David Taylor to be responsive to our questions and concerns and helped us craft a plan that was specific to our needs. We were especially concerned about the coming years but were convinced that he will be there for us when needed. We would recommend him to our friends and associates who might be looking for professional services in estate planning in Washington, D.C.

I contacted David Taylor of Right Size Law after searching for an attorney who focuses on elder law, and I found so much more than I expected. David and his team were diligent, considerate, and highly organized. They answered my questions thoroughly and walked me through each step, so I never felt overwhelmed by the process of setting up a trust. I have already recommended him to three family members.

I engaged Rigjt Size Law and David Tayor twice in recent years and have been very pleased with his help and services. The first time was when a very good friend passed away several years ago and I had the duty of Executor. Engaing David was very helpful, and he alerted me to the various pitfalls and issues I had to deal with, things that are not alway obvious when one is handling the responsibility as an Executor. More recently, in the process of revising my Will I decided to use a Living Revocable Trust instead, and David was extremely helpful in walking me through the details and requirements of this arrangement. Most importantly, David has a wealth of local knowledge about dealing with local institutions in the greater DC area, such as charities, non-profits as well as with local banks etc.Hi local knowledge a and personal contacts are invaluable for anyone in the greater DC area dealing with the varioous issues related to elder law. He is a specialized elder law attorney, as well as a trusts and estates lawyer, and he has provided good advice on other related issues such as measures to take and sample recommenced companies dealing with managed care in the event of mental or physical incapacity etc. I would recommend him for anyone in the greater DC area for dealing with any of these issues.

I found David Taylor through the Capitol Hill Village to review and update my will. I was greeted by his gracious office manager, Maria. As David reviewed the old will that I showed him, he immediately identified careless and potentially costly errors that were not in compliance with my wishes. We discussed my wishes and intent. He assured me that the papers he prepared for me are correct and in compliance with my wishes. As I can’t anticipate when or what might happen, we discussed possible options. For now, it appeared to him that I already had a lot of those things in place. I feel comfortable that if I become infirm, he will discuss further options with my trustee. I feel that when I pass away, my trustee can call him for guidance and help; and that he and his staff will treat my trustee with kindness and understanding. That was my primary concern and wish. David has shown himself a man of great compassion and integrity. He and his staff are stellar, exceeding my expectations. I feel grateful to have him recommended to me by the CHV.

Anyone considering aging-in-place in the District of Columbia would do well to consult with Right Size Law. David Taylor specializes in Elder Law in DC and he is passionate about it. My daughter, who lives in London, found Right Size Law online when searching for a local lawyer to revise my will. Our initial consultation with him helped me realize that I needed something more than a simple will. Although I don’t have a large or complicated estate, I am a healthy 84-year-old and may well live to be 100. As soon as David heard that I am intent on “aging in place” in my Capitol Hill home, he explained the many benefits of a Living Trust in planning ahead for those last years of life. He even arranged conferences to include my daughter via Zoom so we could come up with a workable plan together. He clearly explains how to qualify for long-term medical care in your own home in the District and how to legally prevent being permanently placed in a nursing home situation against your wishes. This is especially helpful for those whose Executor may live in another city and may not be immediately available in a medical emergency. A key component in my Living Trust has been provision for a Health Care Management professional. If my health should decline, she will coordinate with my Executor to advocate for my wishes. She would visit my home on a regular basis to oversee my medical care. Legal representation is ensured by Right Size Law if it’s needed. My mind is now at ease about my coming years and I look forward to working with David and his great team in the future.

I recently worked with David Taylor of Right Size Law to update my estate plan and came away with a much greater appreciation for the value of an attorney who specializes in elder law. I assumed my existing estate plan, prepared only eight years ago, would need only modest revisions. Instead, David identified important changes in the law and planning opportunities that materially affected how my estate plan should be structured. His recommendations went beyond updating documents. He incorporated thoughtful, flexible planning strategies designed to address future needs and adapt to circumstances that cannot be predicted today, particularly those involving beneficiaries. What impressed me most was his ability to think several steps ahead. Rather than creating a static set of documents, David developed a plan that anticipates change and provides options for a variety of future scenarios without having to revisit and revise the entire estate plan. Also, the cost was comparable to what I paid for estate planning services from an attorney who was not specialized in elder law. The difference in expertise, insight, and sophistication was substantial. I recommend David Taylor. My experience demonstrated the value of working with someone whose practice is devoted to elder law and estate planning.

When we first contacted Right Size Law (RSL) we wanted to get a Will done but in discussion with Mr.Taylor we realized more was required to protect us as we aged. RSL worked with us on Estate Plans that included answers to questions about elderly care and end of life issues. All questions were answered in a timely, thoughtful way in a very comfortable environment. We would highly recommend this company for these important services.

Only part way through the probate process, but so far it has been painless. I had very limited funds to start the process, but David was able to work out a payment plan spreading the cost over several months. No charge for the initial consultation, unlike another firm that wanted me to pay for an initial half-hour consultation before they would quote a fee estimate or even tell me whether they would take the case.

I have worked with Attorney David Taylor for over 8 years on my legal documents. He is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and makes a complicated estate planning process easily to understand. He offers practical options based on the facts to help me make the best decisions for my loved ones He put my first estate plan together, and he has since demonstrated a need to understand the changes in my life and the lives of the people who I care about.   The amount of details he takes into consideration is extremely comprehensive. He is readily available to provide legal advice and personal insight. What I like best about David, is that he offers a relationship. Like a thoughtful friend, David follows up and checks in keep my estate plan up to date. I could have gone to another attorney but I can't imagine them caring about my situation as much as David and his dedicated team does.  His assistant Maria is also AMAZINGLY sweet.   If you are looking for estate planning in DC and more importantly an attorney who cares, you should definitely have David do your estate plan and take care of you and your family.

I delayed organizing my estate finances for many years. After retiring from the federal government, I now have more time to think and focus on estate and financial planning along with long-term care insurance. I felt overwhelmed and was afraid to act on some things, realizing there was so much I didn't know or understand. At the same time, I knew I needed to do something. One day, I saw an offer to attend a free seminar on financial planning hosted by Right Size Law, PLLC. One of my best decisions was to attend the seminar. I quickly realized yes, there was a lot I did not know or understand completely, concerning financial planning, protecting estates and long-term care insurance, but the Right Size, PLLC free seminars helped clarify the key points. David explains the differences between wills, trusts, considerations of planning for (and after) retirement, and alternate methods of funding long term health care. During the seminars, David points out differences between the jurisdictions of DC, Maryland, and Virginia. His information is clear, concise and easily understood. David clarifies his point by using everyday examples and scenarios. These seminars helped me to realize I needed to work on my planning sooner than later. Friends suggested I use an online legal tool such as Will and trust or Legal Zoom but I'm glad I did not. As a client of Right Size, PLLC, I still have questions. David is responsive, patient and enlightening. David and I developed a plan unique to me and my needs. I look forward to working with David and Right Size, PLLC for many years to come. As a matter of fact, I have been so impressed with the services offered by Right Size Law, I refer friends to David.

My husband and I engaged David to help with our family planning several years ago. He put together a comprehensive plan at a competitive rate. He also compiled all the necessary paperwork for our son when he turned 18 years old. David provides sage legal advice whenever needed, including at the last minute. Working with David makes the legal paperwork painless. Highly recommend.

I am the owner of COCOVA Chocolate in DuPont Circle D.C and Chocolate Crust Bakery & Deli in Brightwood D.C. I have been working with RSL for almost three years now. I was recommended to them by a mutual acquaintance and it has proved to be the best decision for me and my businesses. David and his team have helped me formulate several business structures which are allowing my business to grow and succeed in addition to creating agreements to secure my investors interests. The help I have received navigating very tricky (to me) challenges is second nature to this Law Firm. I have received personalized service that exactly meets my needs, and costs for services are honestly discussed. David has provided foresight into some of my pending business decisions which have allowed me to make better more informed decisions giving me peace of mind and assuredness. RSL is timely, accessible, and highly responsive. Just what every business needs but can't always seem to get.
