The law firm's expertise is awesome

I retained the McNamara Law in November 2016. This firm has helped me tremendously in dealing with my husband's illnesses of Parkinson's disease and dementia. Jane and her staff have given me the peace of mind that I can actually have a good life even with Charles not living with me anymore. I hav...e and will continue to always thank them. I refer the firm to anyone that is in need of their expertise with these issues.

Gave freely of her time for our local Alzheimers support group

Jane visited the Alzheimer's/Dementia support group that I facilitate in Acton, Ca last week. In a very UNhurried, succinct presentation, Jane provided much needed information to our group that was clear, concise and easy to understand. As a volunteer myself, I know is rare to find someone passionate... who is willing to give away their time and care about what they are doing. Wonderful!

Simply the Best!

Let me start by saying, having found Jane & her team has been an absolute blessing to my Mom & our family. This time in life can be very stressful and confusing to navigate. With Jane's compassion and knowledge as an Elder Rights Attorney, she was able to provide our Mother with a safe & secure Tru...st & Life Plan for her future. Her team is extremely dedicated to following through with every detail. Throughout one of the most difficult times of our lives, Jane and her team have been there every step of the way. We are so grateful for the wonderful care and respect our Mom has been shown.

If you are looking for an Estate Planner here is one I highly recommend.

My husband and I used the McNamara Law Firm years ago to do our Living Trust. When he passed away they were very kind and understanding as they helped me take care of the things that were needed. Since then I have had a few questions and every time I've called I was treated very professionally and re...ceived answers. I have attended a few of her seminar's also and am impressed with how she keeps up on ALL of the changing laws for the elderly. I would recommend her to anyone that needs an Estate Planning attorney.
