Best Estate planning attorneys in United States

Carlos Lopez is an amazing attorney, he fights to ensure that his clients seek justice with a kind, compassionate, yet fair approach. I am glad to have sought his counsel in my legal matter.

I am so grateful for the Lopez Law Firm PLLC. They were God sent after I had to find a new representation in the middle of my child support case.
Mr. Lopez from the first call was kind, he allowed me to explain my situation and just had a calm to him which was not the previous experience I had with interviewing another lawyer.
As a single mother who never dealt with the court system before Mr. Lopez always made be feel seen, valued, took time to explain the law verbiage to me and just made me feel safe. I trusted him with anything he recommended and really felt and saw him work form me.
Thank you so much to the Lopez Law Firm PLLC team. I will definitely be recommending your services to my family, friends and community.
I highly recommend his services!!!

Susan Eleff of the Eleff Law Group was an extraordinary find for my wife and I as we worked to bring some order and structure to our estate plans, to include our wills, Advanced Medical Directives and Powers of Attorney. From the first conversation Susan made us feel heard and well taken care of and truthfully made the process completely comfortable. Beyond her clear knowledge of the law and intricacies of all that is involved here, Susan went to great pains to make us part of this important journey. Susan and her staff are professional, very responsive and in every way awesome!!!

Hiring Lee was the best decision I made. She will work for you. After the past year of dealing in a divorce, Lee and Rachel has shined right through. I really appreciated all of their hard work and I can't thank them enough.

I would like to start off by saying Miss Fairchild has finalized my divorce for me. She was able to get me an agreement that was fair and just to my situation. If anyone is going through family separation, you understand how difficult it can get. My attorney was with me every step of the way and their is no way I would have been able to finish this terrible time in my life with out her.

I highly recommend you contact her and her team.

Special thanks to Rachel Doyle for her diligence and professionalism in during my case.

Extremely impressed with Lee Fairchild. She is great at communication and amazing at what she does. She was exceptional and caring. Lee made sure I was knowledgeable about my case. Thank you for showing me there are good lawyers that care about their clients.

Odine provided excellent support during my divorce. Her knowledge of the law and responsible charging practices are great assets.

Odine's thorough and accurate work, combined with her quick responses to my questions, helped me feel supported throughout such a challenging time. I hope that these details will give potential client's a clear picture of the kind of personal attention they can expect from her services. The experience I have received is by far the best in a legal situation.

Thank you,

Teresa Penza

From start to finish Lee Fairchild was amazing. I can not thank her enough for all the support and kindness she showed us through this hard time. She definitely cares for her clients and goes above and beyond to give us peace of mind. She always came back real quick with answers to our questions and concerns. We definitely were very happy with the outcome of our situation and know we were in good hands with her. Thank you again so much Lee!

Odine filed my documents for enforcement of judgment (writ/abstract incorrectly delaying enforcement of my judgement. She answered my calls promptly before giving her payment and after receiving my payment she wouldn’t return my calls she would only text or email. She promised to have my paperwork filed by a specific date, which she didn’t do and only after numerous calls, emails and text messages did she finally file the paperwork and did so incorrectly. I will be filing a small claims against Odine and I will report her to the bar and anywhere else I can to stop her from doing this to another person.

Susan Eleff was efficient and thorough in helping me resolve issues with my parent's estate. She answered my questions promptly and took the time to explain what I needed to do. I would recommend her services.

I really appreciate all Carlos Lopez did to help me with my case. He was kind, responsive, and transparent through the entire process and I’m so grateful I found him to represent me.

Odine did a get job walking me through my divorce. She was patient with me and all the questions I had. I would highly recommend her services.

Susan was wonderful. I am a realtor and we had a complicated situation to deal with. Susan was very responsive and thorough and made things very easy for the family during a difficult time. I would definitely want to work with her again.

As a financial advisor, I have introduced my clients to Susan and will continue to do so. Susan has been extremely professional and caring towards my clients in all stages of their lives.

Susan was absolutely professional every step of the way. She made sure each step was clearly understood before moving to the next one.
Highly recommend her!

Mr. Lopez was incredibly professional and helpful as we dealt with attaining a CPO and ASO from a stalker of hours. He was always available, listened to us, and guided us throughout the entire process. Because of him, we received the CPO and ASO, and it was all due to his help. I couldn't recommend him enough.

I can't recommend Susan Eleff. She lacks professionalism in that she doesn't respond to multiple phone messages left & to emails sent. Hence I had no choice but to seek legal services elsewhere from a reliable lawyer. There's no point in her having a legal pedigree if she's going to fail to respond & communicate just like someone who lacks a pedigree.

When I originally called her office, the receptionist took detailed notes & I was told someone would be in touch. After waiting a week, I called the office again only to have Susan answer the phone. When I told her that I had called & provided detailed information, she then found the message in her system. What's the point of having a system in place if you're not going to use it? After a brief discussion, she then asked me to email her further detailed info, which I did about an hour after our call. Two days went by without hearing from her, so I emailed her again, asking her to please confirm that she received my email (& I typed her email correctly because her photo appears when I do). She never emailed back. The following day I called her office & the receptionist left her a message. Then a week after that I called her office again, this time leaving a message on her voicemail. I never heard from her. I'm incredibly surprised by her apathy. If she wasn't interested in helping me for whatever reason or didn't have the time, she could simply have asked one of her receptionists to relay such a message back to me. Instead I was ignored for no reason, after patiently waiting for a response & wasting weeks of valuable time. I strongly suggest you don't waste your time as well. Look for another attorney.

Just a "WOW" all around. Ryan Brown and his assistants were the loveliest people. I got an appointment quickly. Will and other estate planning documents were all in draft form at my first appointment (they will provide a questionnaire prior to your appointment and draw up preliminary documents). Mr. Brown is easy to talk to, he explains things brilliantly, he listens attentively, his expertise is evident.

At our final meeting I was provided with a wealth of information supplementary to my legal documents including a personalized emergency contact wallet card. Mr. Brown is incredibly thorough. I can't recommend him more highly. I just wish I had more legal needs so I could meet with him and his staff again.

I am beyond grateful for the professional, kind and timely service I was given by Odine and her staff at Orange County Legal Solutions. With divorce being a difficult experience and chapter of my life, I was blessed to have been referred to this firm by a close friend who had a positive experience with her own divorce. Odine was very understanding of my requests and I did not feel rushed during any part of the process, and she was available when we needed to ask specific questions, or for clarity on the paperwork. Odine helped me to pursue this task once I had made up my mind to go in this direction, and I haven't looked back since. I am blessed to have had Odine walk me through this process with such caring professionalism.
Thank you, Odine. You have been a blessing to me and I will be forever grateful for you.
I wish you continued success, love and happiness!

Odine was so easy to work with and was awesome with communication and getting done what we needed. We are in Arizona, and we didn't even have to go into California to accomplish anything. I highly recommend Orange County Legal Solutions and would definitely use again!

Lee Fairchild is by all means a MIRACLE WORKER. She is prompt, great at communicating, never missed a due date, she is fair priced, she is intelligent and it reflects in how she practices law. I had a horrible custody situation with my ex wife, and she helped me get close to full custody. I would recommend her for anything you need. She will do what whatever she can to truly help, and she's extremely excellent at what she does. HIRE HER IMMEDIATELY.

My experience with Mr.Lopez at Lopez Law Firm was great! I appreciate the time and effort he gave into my family case. He explain everything very well to me in spanish & english. He was always communicating with me. He got me everything I asked for in my case, totally recommended & will get his services again If I have to. Thank you so much Mr.Lopez & God Bless You.

Lee was a true professional and very responsive to our case. She communicated regular updates to us and made us feel confident that she was on top of all of the issues. She cares and it shows in how she deals with her clients. We can’t thank her enough for her work.

Lee Fairchild did an amazing job taking care of my wife's cases she went a over and beyond to get the best outcome possible and we greatly appreciate all she made happen. I would definitely recommend her and advise a others to put your case in her hands she won't steer you wrong.

I would NEVER recommend Lee Fairchild to literally anyone ! She lacks communication with her clients and sets them up for failure. In the past year her performance has declined tremendously, unsure if it’s because she has taken on so many clients and can’t accommodate everyone at one time but as far as the work that she has done for my family, was VERY poor in efforts

Gregory Moscatel at Callahan Barraco represented us in an 18 month custody battle between myself and my girlfriend over our infant child. He was empathetic to all sides of the battle and navigated the quarterly court hearings so well that in the end my girlfriend and I were able to live together and resume our relationship such that all parties are wiser and happier. My girlfriend and I even rode a tandem bicycle together to the last two court hearings. Now we are one big happy family again, enthusiastic for our next adventure.

Absolutely nothing bad to say about my experience with this firm. I was dreading the divorce process as I am sure most people are, but Attorney Moscatel lead me through the process like it was nothing. There was never a moment I thought I wasn't in good hands or I could have done better. It has now been 6 months since the divorce was finalized and there are small nuances he put in the agreement that GREATLY impact my day to day in a positive way. If anyone reading this is unsure where to go or who to ask for legal advise prior to enter into divorce proceedings, Greg Moscatel is your guy. THANK YOU!

I was very pleased with the legal services that Odine provided. She is quick, efficient and unlike a law firm, she doesn’t charge an arm and a leg. I would highly recommend her services for anything that doesn’t require going to court such as a mediation.

After a google search, I came across Orange County Legal Solutions and started working with Odine. I tried to do my divorce all on my own and it was taking way too long and the deeper I got, the more confusing it got. Odine was able to take everything I had already done, pick up where I left off, and quickly and efficiently finalize my divorce. Her fees were reasonable and she was easy to communicate with. Very thankful to have found Odine.

Attorney Lopez is the absolute best. When you're dealing with issues that hit so close to home, it's important you have someone on your side, you can trust and know has your families best interest at heart. We were truly blessed to find Attorney Lopez. He helped to guide us on this incredibly confusing and emotionally taxing journey. And now, looking back, we know he was heaven sent. Thank you so much Attorney Lopez, we are truly grateful!

Attorney Callahan was excellent. He reviewed my pre-nuptial agreeement in detail & explained the repercussions of some of the clauses, bringing to my attention some things I wasn’t aware of. He was extremely responsive to emails and accomodated some last minute changes promptly, saving me and my fiancée a lot of troubles. He was very knowledgeable & professional. Overall, I had an excellent experience and would recommend him to anyone.

I needed a set of eyes on a document within a tight time frame and Attorney Callahan & everyone in the office were able to help. They are friendly, responsive, and flexible. They have my highest recommendation and I would gladly use again in the future.

I have nothing but positive Feedback for this firm! Highly recommend! If you want honest and hard-working lawyers who will take their time, thoroughly help you, and dig deep into your case. These people will do so! I have worked with Attorney Gregory Moscatel, and let's say he is fantastic! He has outstanding communication skills and has kept up with my entire case from start to finish. He listened thoroughly to my situation and gave excellent legal advice. Attorney Moscatel demonstrated professionalism during the day of court and talked me through every step to ensure I followed the different transitions. He managed to process paperwork early; best of all, he represented ME and stood strong by his client. Attorney Moscatel was very friendly and a pleasure to work with! As said before, he represented the firm in the utmost way. The overall staff was very friendly, making this entire stressful process easy. Special thanks to Attorney Moscatel and the rest of the CALLAHAN/BARRACO Inc.

I am very proud to share the positive experience I had with Callahan, Barraco, Inman & Bonzagni, P.C. I was in need of the very best legal representation to guide me through the process of getting a divorce. The above and beyond efforts resulted in my successful outcome.
David Callahan and Peter Delano were very professional, genuinely compassionate, and extremely knowledgeable about all of the difficult and detailed aspects of my case. I was informed about what to expect every step of the way. I highly recommend David Callahan and the firm. The genuine kindness, patience, and efficient expertise made it possible for me to go into this new chapter of my life with gratitude, serenity, peace of mind, confidence, and wisdom.

Working with Susan Eleff was an excellent experience. She was extremely knowledgeable and patient with all my questions. Her prompt responses and willingness to explain the legal process in a clear and understandable way made me feel confident and at ease. I would definitely recommend Susan Eleff to anyone in need of a probate attorney.

I hired Carlos for a child custody case. He is a great and affordable lawyer. The road was long but I walked away with full custody of my brother & visitation agreements that work for me. He was attentive, knowledgeable, & caring throughout the process. Highly recommended!

Attorney Hannah White was outstanding handling my divorce, she listened to what I had to say with genuine interest. She promptly replied back when I had a question either by phone or email. When it came time for the hearing she walked me through the whole process and in the end it was a very quick and painless experience with dealing with the hearing and with her through out the whole time. I would recommend any one who needs an excellent attorney for divorce to use this law firm.

Thank you

We had a wonderful experience working with Susan Eleff. She is very professional and an excellent attorney. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Susan even offer to come to the hospital when my husband was sick in order to complete the process of estate planning. Susan is very pleasant to work with and we were very grateful she was recommended to us.

In all my years of working with professionals, I have come to find that excellent work ethics, extreme professionalism and caring and trustworthy representation is almost a thing from the past. This said, it is always refreshing and gives me hope when I am able to post a glowing review without hesitation.
Attorney Dave Callahan is a straight forward, clear and precise attorney who truly possesses a sense of honor, pleasing manners and has an elevated sense of professionalism as well as a vast knowledge in the area of family law. Not only is Dave extremely knowledgeable in his field, he was also highly sensitive throughout the entire process and explains everything in great detail. Not once did I feel like I was just another client. I felt heard and respected. I recommend Dave and his team to anyone looking for a family law attorney!

Odine is a very thorough professional. She cares for her clients who are in an extremely vulnerable period in their life . She has wisdom far beyond anyone else I had consulted . She was consistent in returning messages and was available if any concerns arose.
A twenty year marriage that ends in divorce can be a very anxious time for anyone and she was able to bring about a calmness about the whole procedure
I highly recommend her . .

Mr Eledge was just awesome. He didn't take no bull and stood up for what was truly right and not just because he was paid to. I'd hire him anytime if he was still around. Thank you for your services Mr Eledge

Great people and fair representation. Knowledgeable

Very professional and knowledgeable at their work!

Straight forward to the point. Always friendly.

Mr. Elledge and his office was such a blessing to our family during the adoption of our girls. His rates were very reasonable! We didn't have to pay any extra beyond our retainer! He was much cheaper than others after having multiple consults for the same service. He surpassed all expectations during this process. I feel like Mr. Elledge and his staff went above and beyond for our family, however, I feel that every family would receive the same above and beyond quality of service as we did. Everytime I called, if Mr. Elledge didn't answer the phone himself, he would be right there to take my phone call or call me back within the day! If ever attorney services are needed again for us we will be using them! I highly recommend Mr. Elledge for your attorney needs!

I highly recommend this firm for divorce with childern. They were on point with everything and keeping me informed with any changes.

Would never use this lawyer again! He was very costly & I felt he didn’t care at all about my wishes! Would not recommend period! Beware!

Working with Carlos Lopez has been an amazing experience! I hired him to represent my family in a child custody case and he met every one of my expectations! I would highly recommend Mr. Lopez to anyone with legal matters that seem too tough to tackle. He’s very thoughtful and deliberate in explaining legal matters which will instill confidence and calmness in any client he represent. His professionalism is unmatched in the court room and his experience with the legal system are always on display. Thank you!

Incompetent!!!! My entire divorce is now back in court because they failed to resource or even call once to the retirement department that I was awarded 50%of. Once the error was discovered he continued to bill me for my phone calls to ask how this happened. And worst yet I spent all the money I had on him and he went to court and had himself withdrawn from my case!! Now I’m paying another lawyer to fix his mistakes!!!
PLEASE DON’T MAKE THE COSTLY MISTAKE I DID!!!

Voted by the New York law journal as 2018s best company of the year

My family had a number of real estate issues to resolve after my father's death and we were referred to Jon Schmaltz of Burke, Costanza and Carberry LLP. We found Jon to be very professional, knowledgeable and helpful in working through our many complexities. Since our initial dealings with him I have reached out to him to seek advice on several more minor issues and he has responded with sound and thorough feedback. I would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone needing legal advice involving real estate.

Ryan and the team at Arlington Law Group have been a tremendous resource for several of my clients as well as others in Arlington community. I have and will recommend them to anyone seeking legal guidance on business, labor or estate planning or settlement.

Called in distress. Receptionist wasnt helplful and rather rude. I didnt get a chance to talk to the actual lawyer but based on the attitude of the receptionist I dont think I'd like to deal with them again.

My parents are retired and in the golden years of their lives. After a family discussion, it was agreed that a WILL was the logical next step in order to protect their assets and to ensure that their final wishes would be honored. We sought out the Arlington Law Group for assistance in this matter and were "WOWED" by the attentiveness, care and patience that they showed for my family. It was not a large estate by any means, but they made us feel like a very important client. The big bonus was Mr. Ryan Brown's fluent Spanish, which made the process of communicating with my mother much easier and brought her great comfort. I would highly recommend the Arlington Law Group for your family's Estate Planning needs.

Ryan and the Arlington Law Group have continued to provide excellent service to my family. They provided a seminar on estate planning, and have motivated us to create a will since we now have a newborn. He has also provided a list of services for my mother’s group, which has been very helpful and informative. In addition to the help Ryan has provided to our family, he has also provided his expertise to my husband's business by reviewing contracts and assisting him with the purchasing another business. I highly recommend Ryan and his team to individuals and businesses in need.

Ryan Brown and his team are excellent lawyers. Ryan is very responsive and goes out of his way to educate us on our legal matters. He keeps us compliant and protected, and that is so important to me as a business owner who is trying to build something for the long term. I recommend Ryan to small growing businesses and starts ups. He is also very technologically savvy in his way of doing business.
