When my mother passed, her financial institutions froze her assets, some of which were in a trust…read moreand some titled in her own name. I as a first-time successor trustee had no idea how to start in recovering them. Some of the financial institutions mentioned probate as an option, but with no experience, I was hesitant to tackle that myself. Fortunately I found Julie at Arizona Probate LLC. After she phone-interviewed me to get an understanding of my mother's assets, she suggested I use a "Small Estate Affidavit", which she prepared for a reasonable price and in a timely manner. Happily, my mother's financial institutions both accepted the Small Estate Affidavit and released the assets so that I could settle the estate. Julie was a huge help. With her on the team, the process was clear, easy and affordable. I highly recommend Arizona Probate LLC and Julie. I would readily hire her again any time I needed estate work.

I was overwhelmed to learn I had to file Probate in another state. I hired Julie of Arizona Probate, LLC after firing another service who was completely incompetent & caused me two months of unnecessary stress & delay. I was so thankful to find Julie. To say she's been a life saver is no exaggeration. She is knowledgeable, competent & also a fiduciary, which is an added bonus. The process went from being a nightmare to being handled professionally and in a timely manner. Julie is also just a nice person to work with. I spoke to many other services and I think Julie really stands out among the crowd. I highly recommend her to anyone needing help with the Probate process.

Thieves. In my personal experience, Theut, Theut & Theut's…read moreinvolvement in Arizona probate matters has been deeply harmful to families like mine. Court filings in my case show conflicts of interest, repeated billing practices that drained assets, and decisions that ignored the best interests of the ward. While the courts may treat these practices as "legal," I see them as unethical and predatory. In my view, firms like Theut, Theut & Theut should not be entrusted with the care of vulnerable people or their estates. Families deserve transparency, accountability, and protection -- not to be left fighting to preserve what they've worked for.

I scheduled the initial consultation with Blake Bracht and he walked me through the issues, gave me great advice, and answered all of my questions, all within the initial 30 minute consultation window.

If I should need any legal help in the future, I will certainly turn to them

My initial conversation with Mr. Westby gave me hope and optimism to resolve my situation. However,…read moremy case was handed off to Abelardo "Abe" Rodriguez who's no longer there. But during the time he was working on my case, it was impossible to get a hold of him and when he would finally call he would answer in circles without giving me a real answer. It was extremely frustrating, waste of time and money to say the least! I ended up having to seek help from other legal sources which cost even more money. A year later after everything was resolved on my own, I still had to finish paying the rest of the balance at Platt & Wesby for literally nothing! I would not recommend them.
