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.

I was potentially going in on a real estate investment with all of my inlaws and she broke down my rights, liability and potential risks in a variety of different scenarios. She also offered options for protections for everyone involved and new case law to consider. Truly, she is so top notch and on top of every issue I wanted an answer for to make the best decision. She was not only extremely professional but caring and easy to talk to while also extremely well versed in the latest case law. She was also great at putting things in laymen terms to easily understand. Her compassion will not be forgotten and she will be our family go to with any business and real estate issues in the future. I am certain she will be highly sought after not just locally in her area of expertise in California Real Estate as well as Hawaii Real Estate but statewide in each state. Call her and you will see for yourself. Thank you for everything Shar!

*AI SLOP* DO NOT HIRE…read more I hired Kayla and her firm to review a commercial lease and advise me on a minor billing dispute with my landlord (a $15 administrative fee on a third party bill). From the start, I made it clear that this wasn't about the amount, but about standing up for what was right under the terms of my lease. They said they could help. What I received in return for roughly six hours of billed time (around $2,400) was a memorandum that read exactly like what people call "AI slop" generic, repetitive, and almost entirely restating what I had already written in my own intake summary email. There was no meaningful legal analysis or application of the lease provisions, and several of my questions were completely ignored or misunderstood. It was exactly as if I just copied and pasted the email I sent to them and generated a "lease review". I went and tried it myself and got almost EXACTLY the same "lease review". It really missed the human element. An entire paragraph was dedicated to how if it wasn't a third party bill then they are correct in charging me this. This paragraph was the most obvious giveaway as I made it clear by uploading the bill and stating it on the phone this is a third party bill. This didn't make it to the AI slop "lease review" they generated because in my email text it wasn't specified, and typical of AI responses, they touch all the bases. When I followed up to clarify, the responses continued to miss the point. It felt like a mix of human element with AI assistance even with my communications with Kayla, so it caused a few email back and forths. I raised concern that the memo appeared to have been prepared using AI or some automated drafting tool, since it lacked the depth and reasoning expected of an attorney. That question was never addressed. To make matters worse, after taking on my case fully aware of the limited monetary value of the dispute, I was told only after the bill was run up that the issue was too small for the firm to pursue -- and that I should handle it myself in small claims court. This experience felt unprofessional, ethically questionable, and entirely inconsistent with the transparency expected under the California Rules of Professional Conduct. I do not recommend this firm for anyone expecting a genuine attorney review or personalized legal work. Furthermore I stand by my claim that what I received was AI slop, and am happy to share with anyone what I received so they can see it for themselves. Email me at boba29428@gmail.com if you're interested. As far as I'm concerned I paid $2400 for AI slop and a few back and forth emails to clarify AI slop.

Instead, I was pleasantly surprised that Heidi spent some time getting to know me and putting me at ease. She explained everything completely, and allowed plenty of time to answer any questions I might have. She also brought up some issues I would never have considered. After everything was finalized, I went back to sign the Trust and have it notarized by Eric, who was also very friendly and helpful. I have already told several people how great my experience was, and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Jacklyn explained everything in an easy to understand format. The business was located in Mission Valley, just off the Interstate 8 freeway.

Based off of our first visit, I'd recommend giving them a chance for any of your estate planning needs.
