I originally found Darryl Hale on Yelp and had him prepare our taxes the last couple of years…read morewithout issue. This year Darryl reached out directly offering tax planning services. After paying the $2,500 assessment fee Darryl recommended two tax strategies, both of which raised significant concerns: 1) GFX Trading - a complex Series LLC foreign currency structure. This strategy was presented as a way to generate large tax deductions through foreign currency trading. When I asked for written explanations of how the strategy worked, what the economic substance was, and how it would hold up under IRS scrutiny, the answers were incomplete and at times inaccurate. When I declined to proceed, he called me immediately, insisting "everyone is doing this," and became defensive. I later understood that his affiliated company receives commissions from this arrangement, which was not disclosed before he recommended it. 2) DNA Harmony - involving the purchase of gift certificates for Jazz Band Splash red-light therapy. This was presented as a deductible expense through a separate Series LLC structure. Again, I requested information in writing about the IRS basis for deducting these types of purchases, but the responses did not address compliance, valuation, or audit exposure. When I decided not to move forward with either strategy based on the lack of clear documentation and concerns about risk, I requested a refund of my $2,500 fee. The request was denied. My experience did not meet the level of professionalism I expect from a tax advisor. I would not return nor recommend Darryl Hale and will be filing a complaint with the IRS Office of Professional Responsibility and notifying the California Franchise Tax Board.

I consulted Jenkins & Jenkins to discuss a trust for my elderly mother, as a local bank had made it…read moresound like she needed one. It was very easy to schedule online a free initial consult. It was a no-brainer to schedule this free first 15 min call, because I wasn't even sure my mom needed a trust. We were nearly going to schedule with a bilingual estate lawyer who would charge an initial fee of $250/hr. Right on scheduled time Michael Jenkins gave me a call, and we were able to determine very quickly that my mother's situation wouldn't benefit from a trust after all. They could have easily pressured me to do it anyway, so I really appreciated their honesty and legal knowledge. Just from this experience, I would go back to them when I actually need to do some estate planning. Thank you!

I can't say enough good things about working with Michael and his team. From the very first call…read morethrough the delivery of our completed trust, the entire process was smooth and stress free. Everything was clearly explained, well organized, and easy to move through, which made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel very manageable. Michael was thoughtful and thorough in helping us think through what we actually needed for our trust, not just pushing a one size fits all solution. He took the time to answer our questions, flag things we hadn't considered, and explain the reasoning behind different options so we felt confident in every decision. Communication was excellent throughout. We always knew what the next step was, timelines were clear, and responses were prompt. It genuinely felt like we were in good hands the entire time. We're extremely happy we chose to work with Jenkins & Jenkins and would highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for an estate attorney who is professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with.

Scott Levin guided my spouse and I through a genuinely difficult and drawn-out divorce mediation…read more There were many moments where resolution didn't seem to be viable, yet Scott stayed patient and steady through every delay and setback. His experience and knowledge of family law is invaluable. He truly is a peacekeeper! One of the things that stood out most was his ability to read the room and adjust his approach as needed. Early on, he kept things low-key and gave both sides space to stay comfortable continuing in the process. His creativity when working on dividing assets and liabilities made an incredibly stressful situation less so. As we got closer to the finish line, he was very proactive in helping us reach an agreement. That kind of judgment, knowing when to hang back and when to step in, is a valuable skill in mediation. If you're dealing with a complicated or emotionally charged divorce, I can't recommend Scott highly enough. He got us to a fair resolution when it genuinely felt uncertain at times, and he did it with professionalism and skill throughout.
