    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 am her only…read moreheir, & executor/beneficiary in her Will, so I thought this was a simple transfer of her estate. 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.

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. He did not try to sell me any services that I didn't need and was very professional. I would highly recommend Platt and Westby and specifically, Blake to anyone needing legal assistance. If I should need any legal help in the future, I will certainly turn to them

    (ZERO STARS!!!)HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE LAW FIRM!! TO BE AVOIDED AT ALL COSTS!! The following…read moreare the TWO FACTUAL EVENTS that occured (a few more, but in the interest of time I've limited it), so, please read on and you can then decide for yourself if you'd ever care to have such slippery snakes in the grass ever represent you, and then turn around and get bit. I base my above stated personal opinion and warning upon the following FACTS: #1. My partner and I were represented by this firm in regards to the 2015 (completely settled in 2018) real estate related civil suit filed in Maricopa County, AZ. This firm consistently generated on their own, and sent me MULTIPLE account statements, over a multitude of months, indicating and assuring me I had a ZERO balance, YEP, ZERO, and I never heard another word from them, as one would expect.... end of story?? NOT EVEN CLOSE!!! Any reasonable thinking human being would be led to that conclusion, BUT this doesn't describe reasonable thinking individuals. Well, fast fwd almost a year later after receiving all the ZERO balance statements, only to get served with a surprise lawsuit in 2025 (by this owns firms Partner's little shady side hustle "collection agency LLC" PROFESSIONAL ACCEPTANCE LLC), making outlandish claims that we still owed some sort of debt, via an "assigned" debt from this firm. SAME BAD ACTORS, just conveniently operating under this new name. Worst yet, they had all of our current contact info, yet instead of simply reaching out and even attempting to resolving the matter or clear things us they just plowed right ahead to run us over without any warning (I warned you this would involve unreasonableness). It should also be noted that my partner hadn't been ever contacted in any way by anyone since 2018, NOPE, not even a single time. #2 (Can't even make this kind of stuff up, it actually happened possibly due either outright harassment/vindictiveness or a data breach/breach of confidential client information) This firms partners, acting through and on behalf of their "collection LLC", took my partners PERSONAL INFORMATION and filed and publicized it in completely unrelated Court pleadings, which is a public forum, that had absolutely NOTHING what so ever to do with them, nor involved them in any way, shape or form, in support of asking the Court to approve Alternative Service for one of their other "victims" that they were having trouble getting served with their latest lawsuit, outright falsely claiming that my partners info had anything at all to do with this person. So, you can plainly see what lengths they'll go to. **BEST PART OF ALL THIS: When all of the above stated was brought to their attention, they flat out refused to even respond or offer to correct THEIR ERRORS and instead insisted upon proceeding with the lawsuit, flat out refusing to acknowledge correct THEIR mistakes or be held accountable for any of their egregious actions. Completely UNETHICAL on SO many levels in my opinion and only goes to show what a complete lack of moral fiber and integrity looks and acts like. *PM me and I'll be more than happy to provide all documentation. **cross-posting on multiple platforms and finishing up dedicated website in order to warn other unknowing possible innocent victims like ourselves.

Timely, knowledgeable, and always available to answer my questions, this team made an incredibly complicated situation feel manageable. After five years on ALTCS, we hit a serious roadblock: an unresponsive AHCCCS representative put my mother's coverage at risk of being canceled. Emergency action was needed, and Jessica delivered. Her swift intervention cleared the final hurdle and secured my mother's ALTCS renewal approval for 2026. I cannot thank Jessica and the entire team at Emily R. Taylor Law enough. If you or a loved one need expert guidance through the ALTCS process, look no further -- these women are the best in the business!

From the initial consultation the team definitely put my mind at ease. I just can't reiterate enough how easy it was, there are decisions to be made but the team takes you by the hand and walks you all through that. I definitely wanted my boys involved and they were nice enough to zoom them in and explain the process step by step. The surprising thing is in the end once everything is done, what a beautiful binder they give you for easy access to all your documents. Definitely would recommend them. Thank you ladies
