I conducted research online to determine who I should go to and who was the best fit for me. Happily, I found attorney Lisa Chan. She went above and beyond my expectations. From my first phone call to meeting her and completing the Advanced Healthcare Directive, my entire experience with her was wonderfully positive. Her rate is very reasonable in the Bay Area. She was very patient in listening to and answering all of my concerns and questions​ and offered professional guidance on areas I was unfamiliar with. It is evident that she is very knowledgeable about her practice. I can feel that she truly cares about her clients and treats them with respect and dignity. I will definitely be returning to Lisa for future services and highly recommend her.

Within 24 hours, a call was scheduled with Zakiya and after our telephone consultation, I knew, unequivocally, that my decision to move ahead with Zakiya was a solid one. Zakiya did not disappoint. She was consistently available to listen, explain and yes, explain again and when I could not get consistent and accurate language regarding the donation of my body for research, Zakiya stepped in, placed the call and "Voila !" Resolution!. Bottom line, I had delayed updating my trust as I deemed it a potentially overwhelming task. Under Zakiya's tutelage it was not that at all and importantly, I now have a document that accurately reflects my latest desires and a reassurance that it would never again sit accumulating dust as she'd be in touch periodically to check that the document was still in line with my wishes. I am grateful for the referral and absolutely grateful for the kindness and expert guidance I received. Without doubt, I recommend Zakiya and her firm to anyone who knows it's time to either initiate or update your estate plan.
