Excellent Estate, Wills, and Trust Attorney

There's no one I trust more with the important and sensitive process of estate planning. Emily helped my husband and me establish an estate plan, prepare our wills, and create a family trust. She is clear, energetic, and a joy to be around, transforming a complicated and intimidating task into an eas...y and seamless one. We are so grateful and happy for the peace of mind that Emily provided for our family!

Highly Recommended Estate Planning Attorney

My wife and I were clients of Emily's a few months ago and we were so incredibly happy with the legal assistance she provided. When it came time for looking for an attorney to help us with our estate plan, my wife and I did not want to pay big firm dollars for an estate that is well below the exempti...on amount. Emily was referred to us through a colleague and we feel so fortunate to have found her! She has big law expertise and talent but is reasonably priced and understands the needs of young working professionals. Emily truly gets the need for good estate planning at all income levels and was eager to help us despite the fact that we do not have a significant amount of assets. Since our experience with Emily I have been telling my friends with young children who do not have an estate plan to call her immediately because I believe that this is something so incredibly important. It is not about how much money you make - you need to have an estate plan in California to make sure you kids are adequately looked after, you do not have to go through the probate process, and to create healthcare directives for yourself and your family. Emily is a gem and you better reach out to her soon before everyone else figures out she is a steal and she becomes too busy!

Emily Porter Review

I am so happy to have met Emily for this very daunting process that my husband and I have procrastinated doing for way too long. Emily made the experience so simple and stress free, and assisted us in understanding quite a complex web of decisions. I feel lucky to have her as a resource now, and wil...l continue to recommend her to my friends and family.
