Highly recommend James Phan

James was my brother's lawyer and created his will and Trust. He was the lawyer/executor, I was the Trustee. When my brother died we worked together to fulfill the will and Trust directions. One account did not make it into the Trust and so we had to go to probate court for that. This was mostly duri...ng Covid so court dates, appointments, etc., proved challenging. Throughout the entire process James was throrough, highly communicative, proactive and responsive. He was also compasssionate and "human". James' combnation of skill, communication and compassion allows me, without hesitation, to highly and enthusiastically recommend James Phan.

Thorough and thoughtful

James represented us in a dispute with our home builder and a home warranty escalation process. He was very thorough and clearly understood our side of the issue. He was thoughtful in his approach to our case and we felt that James represented us well and did everything within his power to help us ...through our situation. We would definitely hire him again.
