WE used B&R about 2 years ago for estate planning, very professional and thorough. Price is reasonable.

When my husband was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, I looked for an elder law attorney for legal help. Fortunately, this road lead us to Mary Katherine Brennan. From our first consultation, it was a match, a perfect match. She is very knowledgeable and caring. The advise she gave us has been beneficial and avoided problems that may otherwise have occured. It is impossible to praise her enough. Obviously, I highly recommend her and the firm. We are fortunate to have a lawyer with such high qualifications right here in Maine.

We're very happy with the guidance and support we get from Brennan & Rogers to develop and maintain our estate plan. Smilie is very approachable and gives clear advice and explanations of the options we need to consider. We look forward to working with him for many years.

It was a pleasure to work with Smilie and his team. He was extremely patient as my wife and I talked through our planning and figured out what we actually needed and wanted. Smilie guided us through the options available and helped us choose what worked best for us. I look forward to continuing our relationship as our needs evolve over time.
I am very happy with our outcome and wholeheartedly recommend Smilie.

I am highly recommending Smily Rogers for his services. He helped my worried and anxious brain to understand new complicated concepts for my estate planning. Even though it took months to finalize an issue with an authority, he did not give up.

I am extremely pleased with the help that Brennan & Rogers provided me with establishing the MaineCare coverage for my wife of 47 years as her Alzheimer's increased and ultimately took her life. They were caring, competent and efficient in handling these details. They helped in all the aspects of this truly devastating experience. Given all I have heard from others, I can wholeheartedly recommend the firm to anyone in a similare situation.

Compassionate, knowledgeable, sound advice and a willingness to listen. Smillie and Mary Catherine eliminated the stress of financial planning and gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend this law firm for all your legal needs.

We highly recommend the law firm of Brennan & Rogers for estate planning, preparation of wills, tax matters, and all the other excellent legal work that they do. Both Mary Kathryn Brennan and Smilie G. Rogers are affable, pleasant, and especially knowledgeable. We are extremely happy to have found them to do our estate planning.

Extremely pleasant and knowledgeable firm. They really take the time to work with you and explain everything in great detail. Very much appreciated. We now feel rest assured all
our financial and health needs are in order. Thank you again Larry and Karen Wick

Mary Kathryn Brennan has helped me tremendously dealing with the state and the nursing home and details to help care for my mother who has dementia.
8 years ago my mother who had early stages of dementia came to live with me and my family. A little over two years ago I realized that I could no longer care for my mom and give her the attention she needed at home so I immediately applied to nursing and assisted living care facilities. I was able to get my mother accepted but now the issue was payment. After numerous attempts to try to solve this issue I contacted Mary Kathryn Brennan. She guided me so that I could try to do this on my own but in the end it was too complicated. When needed she stepped in. She has been there at a drop of a dime to help with any questions and has actually answered questions before they are even asked. I could not do this without her.

I highly recommend Mary Katherine of Brennan & Rogers to anyone needing Elder Care assistance. My Mom, who was already in an assisted living facility, needed to be placed under the Maine Care program. After many unsuccessful attempts to negotiate the ins and outs of the application process, I was referred to Mary Katherine. Her knowledge of the system enabled the application and its approval to be completed in record time. Her professionalism, knowledge and willingness to get the job done correctly was invaluable.

Brennan & Rogers, PLLC has provided us professional and knowledgeable assistance with our estate planning. We are very pleased with their services and highly recommend their firm.

They were great to work with & realistic in the way things should be done. I would work with them again without question. David Kurtz

Good experience discussing difficult subjects - wills, end of life instructions, etc. I especially like the web portal and electronic communications including year end reminders.

Smilie G. Rogers recently handled my husband Michael’s and my Family Planning; which included a Family Trust, Will, Power of Attorney, and Health Care Directive. Smilie made this process painless and easy to understand. We have tremendous trust in his knowledge of these matters and he treated us like family. Would recommend him and his office highly to anyone planning for Elder Care and Retirement.

Having a relative with Alzheimer's, we know the importance of being able to navigate elder care should the need arise. This is why we chose the firm of Brennan & Rogers for estate planning. Smilie prepared the basic documents we need at this stage of our life. Submission of a once a year "report card" gives us the opportunity to communicate any changes to the firm. Most importantly, we know we have a resource as our needs change down the road.

Excellent resource for estate planning and tax advice and preparation. Their elder law knowledge enhances their ability to compassionately serve their clients needs.

Retained them to set up an estate. They were very informative, showing and explaining many options and recomending what was right for my needs. Very nice and very efficient. Would highly recommend.

Very helpful and knowledgeable and comfortable to talk with.

I cannot begin to describe the wealth of knowledge and compassion Mary Katherine and Edie provided me and my family when we we struggling with decision making on behalf of my parents. Initially financial planning turned into medical proxy issues, more financial planning, elder health care, etc, all within a few months! Being prepared is the best option but since we were not, MKB was amazing in helping navigate the course for us.

Both Smilie and M.K. do a fantastic job with their clients, and mine. I would not hesitate to refer anyone to them.

Estate and end of life planning is difficult on many levels.....working with Smilie made going through the process very smooth. He was very professional, knowledgable, efficient and reasonable from a cost standpoint. I highly recommend his firm.

It was a pleasure working with this law practice! Very knowledgable and helpful. I highly recommend them. They went above and beyond my expectations to address my issues.

We are so very glad to know Smilie and Mary Kathryn! They have helped us in two critical ways, once for our estate planning and also with my brother who is disabled. They literally held our hands through a tough time and encouraged us to take important steps on behalf of my brother. I recommend them highly in both categories!

It was a real pleasure dealing with Mary Kathryn Brennan of Smilie G Rogers. Very knowledgeable, easy to work with and reasonable costs. I would highly recommend this firm.

In trying to navigate what we needed to do to get Mainecare for an elderly family member going into memory care, we found help through Attorney Mary Kathryn Brennan, at the Law Office of Smilie G Rogers.

After one meeting with her, we felt comfortable that she would get us through the complicated process that was ahead of us. She handled all the contact with Mainecare, helping us pull together what we needed in financial records and other paperwork.

She was easy to reach, readily answering emails and phone calls. She patiently answered our numerous questions, and we had a lot of them, explaining the Mainecare process as we went through it, every step of the way. She is knowledgeable, trustworthy, affordable, and compassionate.

We probably would have given up and thrown in the towel far into the early stages of the process, if it hadn’t been for her. We can’t thank you enough, Mary Kathryn. You have gone above and beyond throughout this long, daunting task. If we ever need help again, you will be the one we call. We highly recommend you and the Law Office of Smilie G Rogers.

My family lives in Florida where we filed a primary probate case and we needed a secondary probate lawyer up in Maine. We've never met Smilie Rogers in person, but after reading online reviews, we chose his firm based on what we'd read. What a terrific choice! We conducted all of our business over the phone and Smilie made the process seamless and easy. Smilie was friendly, patient, extremely knowledgeable, thorough, honest and affordable. What a treasure, discovering Smilie. We highly recommend Smilie G. Rogers, PLLC and his services. Thank you Smilie for taking care of us during a very difficult time!
