Austin A. Frye

My wife and I are both 74 years old, and we felt it was time to set up the proper estate planning accurately describe our final wishes and also avoid paying any unnecessary taxes when our assets are passed on to our beneficiaries or heirs. The Law Offices of Frye, Fortich and Garcia handled all of t...hese matters for us. We had the good fortune to get the proper legal advice and documentation from Austin Frye and Lauren Garcia. They took all the time we needed to clearly our goals as a couple and individually. Not once did we feel that any question we had was too basic and unimportant. The entire experience was very professional and quite comfortable given the subject matter. We even had some good laughs along the way. On top of all this, we felt the fees charged were more than reasonable and fair. We recommend wholeheartedly to anyone who needs this type of legal expertise to consider using this law firm.

Austin Frye has represented our family for many years, as to estate planning, tax planning, asset protection and business consulting. After the recent passing of both our parents, we realized how effective Austin’s meticulous estate and tax planning were – he successfully prevented a taxable estate f...or both my parents. In terms of asset protection, Austin’s thoroughness kept assets tightly sealed and well protected when our daughter recently got divorced.

Austin Frye provided legal services to my father while alive and to his estate after his death; when showing the EP docs his firm prepared to other professionals (lawyers, financial advisors, accountants), they all commented that these were the most “tight” documents they had ever seen, as to thoroug...hness and specificity (included the right details) and as to format. During the period when my father was very ill and near death, Austin did a great job of preparing and getting me familiarized with what to expect and the steps to be taken. Over the course of the probate administration, Austin and his team were extremely helpful and patient (even with “silly” questions!); AND our total fees were definitely lower than we expected! I attribute this to Austin and his team’s ability to walk me though completing some of the needed steps on my own, as I desired , and thus keeping our overall billing lower. Austin and his staff were highly knowledgeable and experienced in navigating us through all the IRS court requirements. In addition, my mom met with Austin a couple of times for follow up planning, and she was extremely satisfied.
