Mr. Arrasmith, I am going to share with yelp the email I just had to send you, after receiving yet…read moreanother fabricated billing invoice. To the readers, this attorney is as dishonest as they come. Beware! ames, I am done entertaining your excuses, your fabricated narratives, and your blatant misuse of my trust funds. You withdrew $2,310 from your IOLTA account after I cancelled representation, without authorization, without a signed agreement, without itemized time entries, without scope approval, and without performing a single minute of legitimate work. That is not a "misunderstanding." That is a violation of multiple California Rules of Professional Conduct. Let me spell out exactly what you violated: Rule 1.15 - Safekeeping Funds You withdrew client trust funds that were not earned, not authorized, and not supported by any written agreement. You billed for "legal secretarial work," "principal attorney case work," and "trust document review" even though I never hired you for trust work, never provided any documents, and cancelled before any work began. Withdrawing unearned funds is conversion. You know that. Rule 1.5 - Fees You charged for work that was never performed, never authorized, and outside the agreed scope. You fabricated "final accounting" as billable work. Final accounting is administrative. It is not compensable. You billed for tasks that cannot legally be billed. You billed for tasks that did not occur. You billed for tasks that were outside the CalSTRS scope. This is dishonest billing. Rule 1.4 - Communication You never obtained informed consent for any of the work you claim to have done. You never disclosed any time entries. You never disclosed any scope change. You never disclosed any trust‑account withdrawal. You never disclosed any basis for the charges. You simply took the money. Rule 1.0.1(e) - Informed Consent You cannot claim a phone call "voided" my cancellation. A phone call cannot reinstate representation. A phone call cannot authorize billing. A phone call cannot authorize trust withdrawal. Only a signed written agreement can create or modify an attorney‑client relationship. You never sent one after cancellation because you knew I would not sign it. Business & Professions Code §6068 You failed in your duty to act honestly, competently, and ethically. You acted in a manner that undermines public trust in the profession. You took advantage of a vulnerable client who explicitly told you about financial hardship. You exploited that vulnerability for profit. Your conduct is not a "difference of opinion." It is not "final accounting." It is not "earned fees." It is conversion, dishonesty, fabrication, and post‑cancellation billing -- all of which are grounds for discipline. You will return the $2,310 you withdrew from trust after cancellation. You will also return the unused portion of my consultation. You have no legal basis to keep any of it. You have no contractual basis. You have no ethical basis. You have no factual basis. You have nothing but excuses. I expect confirmation of the full refund immediately. If you continue to stall, manipulate, or fabricate explanations, I will proceed with every available remedy, including formal complaints with the State Bar Trust Fund Program, the Office of Chief Trial Counsel, and any other oversight bodies necessary to addr ess your misconduct. Return my money. Eric Vernon

We had poked around our area and none of the local estate firms really seemed to fit our needs. At the suggestion of a good friend we gave the Yee Law Group a call. From beginning to end the experience was excellent. In terms of getting this done we were the ones that lagged a bit and every time we provided or revised something, we heard back in less that one business day.

When my wife and I needed our trusts redone, I researched available law firms specializing in wills and trusts. Yee Law Group stood out during my research, and we are very happy we chose them for this project. At our first meeting with Michael Yee, it was obvious that he was an expert in this area of the law. He confidently answered all of our questions in ways that made his answers clear and understood. He gave us full confidence in every aspect of the professional relationship. Importantly, every communication with his staff was friendly and helpful, and it made us feel as though we were important clients of the firm. Our project is now complete, and it is easy for me to add my own 5-star review to all of the other 5-star reviews earned by Michael's law firm. The professional fee charged was fair, and I highly recommend Yee Law Group for all legal matters relating to wills and trusts.
