Janet and Dylan make preparing will, trust, and medical documents easy. The documents around the trust were comprehensive, and would provide better guidance to an executor when compared to a previous trust I had set up. My only complain is the electronic copy is provided as PDF, not the original Word documents. I understand this is done to manage liability (client modifying without realizing the implications of their changes), but I still would have like to have the source documents.

Janet Brewer and her team were indispensable in setting up trusts for my late son's two teenage children. From our first meeting, Janet listened patiently and understood completely what we needed to accomplish, based on their father's will. The process for us was relatively simple; we only returned to the office once for some signatures, and all was completed in a timely manner. I heartily recommend Janet Brewer and her associates.

We bid on an estate planning auction item at a crab feed put on by Santa Clara County Legal professionals association. Although we only paid a fraction of the service cost they still treated us like we were a very important client. The paralegal and office manager Rod Cardinale Jr. even offered to meet us closer to our home as we live in San Jose.

Janet met with us after my brother passed away. She was extremely open, friendly, and helpful in explaining what we needed to know about dealing with his estate. She even provided suggestions for handling issues such as transferring automobile ownership and forwarding mail. Based on the knowledge, compassion, and helpfulness Janet displayed during our visit, I would definitely recommend her to others.

My wife Carol and I are 100% positive in all respects with our Estate Plan. From start to finish the service wa spot on and hit every mark for customer concerns and full satisfaction. No question unanswered and a finished product to proud of. No worries about any part of our estate being in good hands and legally air tight.
Just what you would want and expect. Highly recommend them to anyone. Regards. Dave Himenes -May 2019

Janet Brewer and associate Dylan Recht did a superb job for us, a very thorough and very comprehensive re-statement of our Trust. We first held an introductory meeting at which we explained our wishes, obligations and resources. They listened to us, took their time, explaining each step carefully. They encouraged us to include in the meeting a family member who would be our successor trustee and executor of our wills. Their advice, as we heard in comments and answers to our questions, was based on their many years assisting other families, understanding their needs and knowing what missteps to avoid. For folks like us, who are not familiar with legal documents and procedures, this can be a complicated process, but Janet and Dylan took their time to explain carefully and clearly each section of the Trust document and each step in the process that lay ahead for us.
Janet Brewer and her team are true professionals and very experienced. We give them our highest recommendation.

My spouse and I had 3 meetings, first with Janet, then with Janet and Dylan and Dylan for the signing Day. At those 3 meetings we really appreciated the fact that they were very patient and answered all our questions. We felt like we were in good hands.

We had an estate plan created by Janet and her friendly staff. She took lots of time to advise us on many options. We are very happy with the results. Then a few years ago we had to update due to marriages and births. We were pleased with the results. Janet sends a monthly newsletter that we find very useful. She has annual barbecue for clients. She sends a humorous Christmas letter in legalese regarding Santa and the holidays. The office is close enough that we can walk.

I found immense value in consulting with Janet, because I truly didn't understand what can happen if loved ones don't have Advance Care Directives, Wills, & Powers of Attorney in place. My family is better protected now, and that's a huge asset for us. Janet's coaching on this, and the nudging to actually get it done (not just have nice thoughts about it), were critically important.
