I have been familiar with Mr. Murai's work for a few years now and I am so impressed with the diligence and professionalism with which he approaches each client and each issue. While Mr. Murai's practice is well-rounded and he has represented clients in a variety of different matters, he has gone above and beyond to become knowledgeable in the areas of estate and financial planning. Mr. Murai is a certified financial planner and has presented at insightful seminars dealing with revocable trusts and estate planning. Though Mr. Murai possesses a wealth of information, he is well-adept at communicating complex issues to clients in a courteous, thoughtful and clear manner. I could not recommend him enough.
