My husband and I went to Art for estate planning -- wills, trusts, etc. We were clueless and Art spent a lot of time walking us through various options and gave us a lot to think about. He is an outstanding attorney who takes care of his clients. And most importantly, Art is a really good man. We came to trust and admire him very much. His staff was wonderful as well, and you can see that he nurtures a great environment. We recommend the Swerdloff Law Firm with enthusiasm!

I have dealt with Art and his firm for over 15 years. In every instance my needs have been met in a professional and expedient manner. I highly recommend this firm to all needing a competent attorney for their estate planning needs.

Excellent and competent. would refer anyone I know to the firm. plan on continuing to use the firm for my legal matters. Charles Young DDS

Especially in a time when one is very vulnerable, emotional and most confused, Art and his office staff can be fully depended upon for his integrity, caring, and, most importantly, his great expertise provided with the utmost degree of professionalism. I cannot recommend Art Swerdloff highly enough!

Provided us with a family trust, very competent and thorough. Additionally provided us with timely advise on another family trust that I manage, excellent.

Elise's hands-on approach made creating an estate plan easy and understandable. She took the time to listen to my needs and helped me to design an estate plan that addressed difficult family dynamics that at first blush would not be easy to overcome. I certainly appreciated the fact that she has extensive experience as both an estate planner and a probate litigation attorney which allowed her to counsel me on how to overcome certain pitfalls in creating my estate plan. I would highly recommend Elise for all of your estate planning and probate needs. Eilse - Thank you for all of your help!

I have worked with Ms. Lampert in the past and utilized her services. I was impressed with her professionalism and her vast knowledge base. She was attentive to my questions and responded on a timely basis. I observed her dealing with the opposing counsel and found her to be able to listen to their opinions and yet firm and bold when explaining my position regarding the legal issues. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting a goal oriented, knowledgeable legal professional.

Ms. Lampert is a compassionate and knowledgeable professional who has provided sound legal advice and council to me over the years. She been extremely instrumental in helping me resolve some emotional family legal issues that have been on-going for many years.

She has helped me navigate through numerous trust and estate dispositions. She is always professional and responsive and gets the job done. I would use her again in a heartbeat and am thankful to have met Elise. She is a gem.

A job Well Done! I was a client of Elise Lampert for a year. Just the thought of facing a double probate can be quite daunting but Ms. Lampert guided me through the entire process. She is a very competent professional and easy to work with. There were no surprises and when dealing with the court system this is a plus. I highly recommend her to anyone having to deal with probate issues. -Jeff W.

Ms. Kahn was very professional, prompt and communicated very well. I needed to make an amendment to a current trust. Ms. Kahn was able to assist and provide additional guidance so that I can make an informed decision during our online zoom meeting. I was surprised by how swiftly she updated our family trust. I am very pleased with her legal services and did an outstanding job in explaining the legal jargon into plain simple language. I would definitely use the Kahn Law Firm again in a heartbeat and so should you.

Im so happy I came cross Deborah Kahn. After days of calling and searching for an attorney I called The Kahn Law Firm and they were able to assist me right away. Deborah was very professional and she took all the necessary steps to correctly help me with the process. I highly recommend her legal services.

Even though my husband and I are fairly young with small children, we recently had a revocable trust drawn up by Deborah because we are dealing with serious medical issues and wanted to have that assurance. She was very accessible, warm and explained everything to us clearly. Because our home base is in another state, she thought of any potential complicating factors and told us what we would need to do to "fill" our trust. Absolutely recommend!

I recently had new documents drawn to update our family trust. Receiving the forms, I had trouble understanding the complexity of the documents and called on Attorney Deborah Kahn to explain them to me before signing. She took the time to go over all my questions and explained the nature of each section to my satisfaction. It gave me more clarity and peace of mind . I have more confidence that if we come across the need for help on our trust that it will be provided in a truly professional manner. Overall, my experience with The Kahn Law Firm was excellent. We were given exceptional service in handling a sensitive subject. The staff made each step a comfortable transition. We completed our living trust with the feeling of confidence that the decisions we made will be handled properly. The emails and direct interactions we received were excellent and served to keep us motivated to remain on track. Attorney Kahn was both knowledgeable and personable. Very pleased to be one of their satisfied clients!!

I would like to thank Attorney Kahn for the support during my first home buying experience. She and her staff were knowledgeable, patient and very professional. Taking the time to go page by page put my mind at ease and confident in my decision. She was very accessible to my questions, and returned phone calls almost immediately. The closing process was smooth and painless, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else with future needs. Highly recommended!!

Joshwa took the time to discuss and explain the details and answered all our questions. Phone and video appointments were available during the height of Covid, and in-person visits later on. He made the process simpler and easier than we expected. And now our living trust is done! Until the next revision.. Check out his web site for helpful FAQs and videos.

He is professional, responsive, and gave us complete confidence on knowledge of the law and process.

Having never set up a living trust before, I thought it would be complicated. But Joshwa Wang made it a very comfortable and easy process. I am very happy with my trust.

I wanted to set up a trust after receiving an inheritance. I chose Marc and his associates after reading all the great reviews, and he and his staff are everything the reviews state and more. I went into the process having been Trustee on my parents Trusts, but not know much about setting up a trust. Marc was very thorough, and helped me set up the trust the way I wanted it, giving me excellent and informative advice that caused me to rethink some of my initial ideas. In addition to helping me set up a trust, Cali Law also helped me obtain a refund from a recalcitrant Board-and-Care after my mother passed away. Not only is Marc an excellent lawyer, he and his staff are exceptionally nice people and easy to work with. I can recommend without reservation Marc and his associates for Estate Planning and issues regarding Elder Care.

i will echo all the previous reviews. Marc, Kathy & their service & physical office are first-class. I think Marc is probably warm & friendly with all his clients which is a good thing. after meeting Marc, i didn't feel i needed to shop for another.

Ever since we had our first child we said we needed to assign guardians, but we never followed through. It was in the back of our minds for a 11 years and 2 more children later. Then we happened to attend a Guardianship Workshop that Marc G. Garlett was offering. After his concise explanation we realized we couldn't wait any longer to take care of such an important matter - who would take care of our children temporarily and permanently if the unexpected happened. After the workshop, we decided to continue with Marc to plan a family trust. It was the best decision we could have made for our family. The peace of mind of knowing our children will be in the hands of those we chose is very important, and knowing our assets will not go into probate is a relief. Marc is professional but also very personable. He took the time to get to know us so he can help make the best family trust. He is upfront about his costs. What he quotes at the first meeting is the actual cost without hidden fees. His staff is friendly, easy to communicate with, puts everything together, and tells you what is needed. We would highly recommend Marc.

We appreciate Marc's attention to detail as he thought of so many things that we did not know about. We had no knowledge of the process, but we knew a trust was important. We trust that Marc has our best intentions in mind and feel good that we can reach out and ask for help as well at any time. He is a family man and it shows in his commitment and dedication toward protecting our family.

Marc is a genuinely good human being. The fact that he's an attorney is a means to an end for helping people, with empathy, and doing the right thing. My wife and I set up our family trust with him for the benefit of our new family. We feel empowered knowing we've taken this important step and having Marc guide us through the process was like having a collaborator on our team ensuring everything was done properly, thoroughly, and with the utmost care. We recommend Marc and call him a friend.

    I wanted to set up a trust after receiving an inheritance. I chose Marc and his associates after reading all the great reviews, and he and his staff are everything the reviews state and more. I went into the process having been Trustee on my parents Trusts, but not know much about setting up a trust. Marc was very thorough, and helped me set up the trust the way I wanted it, giving me excellent and informative advice that caused me to rethink some of my initial ideas. In addition to helping me set up a trust, Cali Law also helped me obtain a refund from a recalcitrant Board-and-Care after my mother passed away. Not only is Marc an excellent lawyer, he and his staff are exceptionally nice people and easy to work with. I can recommend without reservation Marc and his associates for Estate Planning and issues regarding Elder Care.

    i will echo all the previous reviews. Marc, Kathy & their service & physical office are first-class. I think Marc is probably warm & friendly with all his clients which is a good thing. after meeting Marc, i didn't feel i needed to shop for another.

    Ever since we had our first child we said we needed to assign guardians, but we never followed through. It was in the back of our minds for a 11 years and 2 more children later. Then we happened to attend a Guardianship Workshop that Marc G. Garlett was offering. After his concise explanation we realized we couldn't wait any longer to take care of such an important matter - who would take care of our children temporarily and permanently if the unexpected happened. After the workshop, we decided to continue with Marc to plan a family trust. It was the best decision we could have made for our family. The peace of mind of knowing our children will be in the hands of those we chose is very important, and knowing our assets will not go into probate is a relief. Marc is professional but also very personable. He took the time to get to know us so he can help make the best family trust. He is upfront about his costs.

Very knowledgeable, patient, and understanding. We needed service for a living trust for my parents, senior citizens, they had many questions, doubts, and trust issues, but Sandra answered all of there questions and made them feel very comfortable with the process. Outstanding service. Definitely recommend.

Top notch service from the moment you walk into the office and great professionalism from Sandra..Its good to know she represents you and your family

I brought my aunt to Sandra Diaz for clarification and guidance on a Living Trust that my aunt had done years prior. Sandra speaks excellent Spanish, so she was able to explain everything to my aunt in a way that my aunt could understand. She was also incredibly professional, yet down-to-earth and very approachable. We're continuing to use her as legal counsel on any questions/issues that arise with regard estate planning, knowing Sandra will guide our actions to ensure we act in accordance to the law. She's first rate!

A great law office with very knowledgable staff! I would highly recommend using them. I am a very satisfied client :)

Sandra is always very professional,polite,and beyond helpful. She goes out of her way to help in anyway she can. She makes sure the client completly understands the process every step of the way. She listens and answers all you're questions and concerns. She was there every step of the way to help my boyfriend with his fathers estate and with the state of California. We both highly recommend Mrs. Sandra Diaz

I don’t write a lot of reviews but I was so happy and thankful for the good experience I had working with Ajalat & Ajalat Law and I thought it might help someone else who is looking for a personal injury lawyer. Everything about my experience with Greg Ajalat was awesome!! To begin with he told me he wanted to do some research before agreeing to take my case, because it was a complicated one. I could tell he wasn’t just going to take my money no matter what, and really wanted to be sure it made sense to move forward with my claim. At every step Mr. Ajalat kept me informed about what he was doing, how long it would take, and what possibilities we could expect. When there were several options, he talked me through them and didn’t pressure me at all to choose one or the other, just explained them to me and let me choose. There were no unexpected expenses. Even though my case was complicated and it was hard to predict how much the settlement would be, Mr. Ajalat gave me an estimate, and was able to get me an amount at the top of that range! The whole time I felt like I was talking to a real human being, who cared about my situation, thought carefully about things before making decisions, and genuinely wanted me to have a good experience with his firm. Mr. Ajalat was respectful and kind and made what could have been a very stressful situation much better. If you have a case of this type I recommend this firm so highly!

Larry Ajalat is very professional, knowledgeable and thorough. He was extremely patient and answered all my questions. I was very pleased with the service I received. I can't recommend him enough

Larry Ajalat is as thorough, thoughtful and professional as they come. Estate planning is a delicate subject, and frankly one that can be emotionally a big step to take. Larry is intuitively a very compassionate person and realizes that his job involves families making very impactful decisions, and with his many years of experience in this field it's comforting to know that he's got everything that should be covered an an estate plan, covered.

Lawrence Ajalat is my grandmothers lawyer and has been accessible and helpful every time we have needed him. I don’t live in Los Angeles so when I contacted him on her behalf recently I was surprised and pleased that he made time to help us with a small change in her will. I only had two days to assist her and although he already had a very full schedule, he made sure we got the work done. It is really wonderful to have such professional, attentive and immediate response to questions, and timely follow through. He went above and beyond. Thank you, Larry Ajalat!

In seeking legal assistance from Mr. Larry Ajalat, I was pleasantly surprised to come across someone who was so thorough and knowledgeable in his services. However, what pleased me most was the care and compassion, patience and understanding he showed my elderly mother. I would gladly recommend Mr. Ajalat any day of the week.
