Review of attorney Cloyd E. Havens II

Mr. Havens took the time to explain to my wife I every step in the process of preparing our family trust. He answered all of our questions and even furnished answers to several questions that we had not thought of. He was patient and thorough. The documents were prepared accurately the first time so ...we did not have to return for corrections or changes. We consider Mr. Havens the most honest Attorney at Law that we know of in California. We would recomment him to anyone needing his services.

Living Trust

I felt Mr. Havens was thorough, timely and competent in his evaluation of my living trust. Would recommend him without a second thought.

San Dimas Lady

I have been a client of Cloyd Havens for several years and I am completely satisfied with his handling of my estate trust. I have attended his workshop regarding estate planning and found it extremely informative.

Cloyd Havens review

We used Cloyd to prepare our family trust and were very pleased with his advice and and down to earth guidance throughout the whole process. We went back for an update of the Trust and that went equally well.
