Bonanza...sorry but I am not following your reasoning. I would agree that I would not go to a real estate lawyer to handle my will/trust documents. However, the law firm of McLin Burnsed is much larger than having lawyers who only do real estate closings. Its more than "just staff that handle other matters."
Jeff Skates is the partner who heads up the Estate Planning Group and he has been expanding the number of laywers who prepare estate planning documents. His sole practice focuses on Estate Planning and Corporate law....this is not a side business. He (or his practice) does not "multi-task" or deal with real estate closings. Their association with the Villages really has no bearing on their competence, independence or professionalism on preparing Estate planning documents that are personal to you.
Which firm you decide to use is a personal one but you should have all the facts before you pick or eliminate one.
