Heath is one of the most reliable, trustworthy professionals I’ve ever worked with. He genuinely cares about his clients and goes the extra mile to make sure you feel heard and protected every step of the way. His communication, integrity, and deep understanding of the law are unmatched. I’m a small business owner and it means the world when someone treats you with that kind of personal care and respect. Thank you, Heath — I’ll always recommend you first.

I have worked with the BCN Law Firm on dozens of projects over the years, from estate planning to real estate closings and an auto accident. My files have always been handled with professionalism and honesty. I value their advice and trust them to do what is best for me.

Maryann Mahoney

Lois Carr

Polite, knowledgeable and thorough. Our attorney was prepared for our visit. We were treated with respect.

Robert Miner

I was referred to Wade Boyette by my investment advisor, Jean Dorrell, after moving to Florida and needing to set up a Trust and update my Will. Before deciding to work with Wade, I did my due diligence — reviewing his Better Business Bureau rating and reading online reviews — all of which were overwhelmingly positive, and now I see why.

From our first meeting, I was very impressed with Wade’s knowledge, professionalism, and ability to clearly explain the legal process. He answered all my questions thoroughly and offered thoughtful advice tailored to my situation. He handled the setup of my Trust and the update to my Will efficiently and in a timely manner.

I highly recommend Wade Boyette to anyone in need of reliable and experienced legal services.
