Raymond Chandler

Firm: Polaris Law Group, LLC
1551 Wall Street , Saint Charles , Missouri 63303
Practice Areas: Estate Planning
Estate Planning, Elder Law, Business Planning, Estate Administration. I take to heart the title “Counselor at Law” and serve that purpose for all my clients on every case.  Many people come to me because they are in a difficult and scary situation. It is hard for them to see the entire situation. It is hard to weed through the stress to get to the heart of the problem. Hence, they are looking for more than an attorney that will draft paperwork and try the case. They are looking for someone who will take the time to explain the situation. This is why I serve as a “counselor at law” as well as an “attorney at law”. Serving in this role provides both the best outcome for my client and becomes the most enjoyable part of my day..
