Ran (in their client services department) is very easy to communicate with by being both well-organized and, more importantly, extremely responsive to emails and calls in a timely manner. I truly appreciate this because it shows they are not only dedicated to their relationship with me, but they also respect my time. The high standard of professionalism I receive consistently exceeds my expectations and I would absolutely recommend John and his team to my family and friends for legal services, especially related to estate planning needs.

John Park and his team helped with creating a Trust for our families. From our initial meeting to…read morethe end of receiving our Trust folder, the team was very pleasant to work with. John Park met all our questions and concerns. The team is on point with their commnication. They are easy to talk to, they frequently update you with the status. You are never left wondering. I find it extremely important, and I appreciate that they highly value their client's time. I highly recommend John Park and his team! Another plus for us was that Attourney John Park spoke Korean. This was very helpful with creating a trust for my parents. He was very patient with all of my parents questions and concerns. His team is very pleaseant and accomodating. It made creating a trust for my husband and I, as well as another for my parents a breeze.

Our trust & estate lawyer retired and we had been looking for another T&E attorney. Luckily, one of…read moreour friends directed us to Connie. We reached out to Connie (I think we called her or submitted a request via her website ) and she responded promptly (she is busy so the initial Zoom meeting may take a couple of weeks). In any event, in all our interactions, Connie was responsive, practical, knowledgeable, efficient and just a lovely person (funny too). I should mention that my spouse and I had a short time frame to revise our revocable family trust (along with wills, advanced directives, and power of attorney) and Connie understood and met our time constraints. One night she sent a draft of the revised trust at 1:30 in the morning. If we reached out to her at 9 in the morning, she'd respond promptly as well (within a couple of hours if that). Connie also understood our questions/concerns and provided clear and concise responses (whether via Zoom or by email). We really appreciated Connie's thoughtfulness, diligence, and assistance. I have recommended Connie to our friends. Btw, Connie's fee structure is very reasonable for the services provided. She is also forthright and, if you ask her, she will just tell you, this is what my services will cost. I do feel the need to rebut the one bad review (JW's review). What a strange review. Why would you want an attorney to provide services in an area in which they lack expertise? To me, JW's review is evidence of Connie's honesty and, quite frankly, JW should be thanking Connie for being ethical (vs some charlatan that responds with pay me and I'll give you advice in an area I know nothing about). As an attorney, the law is complex. You do not want someone to give you advice in area in which they lack expertise (sort of like, you would not want an ophthalmologist to conduct your heart surgery--just saying). Anyhow, an example of Connie's expertise: I go, hey Connie, why did you include this language, seems to limit protection against a wayward trustee who, in theory, could steal the assets of the trust (she gave a precise and clear answer). I do actively dislike critical reviews that are baseless. My personal experience with Connie was excellent. My spouse thought so too.

Working with Colby on my estate plan was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From our…read morefirst meeting, it was evident that he truly took the time to listen and understand my unique needs and goals for my family's future (international considerations). Colby's kindness, patience, and empathy made a world of difference. Estate planning can bring up a lot of emotions and questions, but he guided me through every step with calm reassurance and clear explanations. He never rushed me and always made sure I felt comfortable with each decision before moving forward. His professionalism and thoroughness gave me tremendous peace of mind. Colby was proactive in addressing important details--like guardianship planning, potential tax implications, and ways to keep my estate plan flexible as life changes. It was clear he genuinely cared about protecting what matters most to me. Thanks to Colby and the team at LaVelle Law Offices, what I expected to be a complicated process turned out to be affordable, smooth and empowering. I'm so grateful for their expertise and compassion. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking an estate planning attorney you can trust.

Excellent job very professional I will definitely recommend anyone to Mr Colby thank youread more

Having a trust done can be daunting and confusing…read more I'm thrilled that we met Brian and he walked us through everything like a piece of cake. From the point of contact, he provided a webinar explaining the basics of what a trust is. Whenever I emailed him, he always has an auto reply message to inform clients when to expect communication responses and I love that. With every question and concern, Brian is there every step of the way. He is very responsive, clear in communication and supportive! Also, he is very approachable so that I don't become afraid of asking too many questions. From the time we did the questionnaire to the time the trust was completed for signing was about 1 month. He could prob do it quicker just depends on when you schedule your signing date. I'm glad we got this "to do" completed. It's been on the back of my mind since our first child was born. This is definitely someone that I recommend for anyone who needs a trust. It's very true that he builds relationships with his client for long term and not just one transaction.
