Patricia D. Barrett, an attorney you can trust

I have been Ms. Barrett's client for over ten years. She was my brother's estate planning attorney and when he died she helped me as the trustee of his trust. She then helped me set-up my own estate planning documents. Since then, she has remained available to help me with any questions I have had. I... rest easy knowing she is there for me whenever the occasion arises. I trust her implicitly.

Ms. Barrett has been my legal adviser and estate planning attorney for twenty plus years. She is knowledgeable, articulate, organized and through. She is personable and pleasant. She has helped me to keep my estate documents up-to-date as events in my life have made changes inevitable. She has alway...s been prompt in responding to any question I pose to her. I have complete confidence in her advice; and therefore, have recommended to friends and colleagues .

Knowledgable, Responsive, Listens to Concerns AND Offers Clear Legal Advice and Documentation

I moved to Patricia Barrett from another attorney and she helped to update Trusts for my aunts, uncle, cousins, friends, parents and myself. She is extremely easy to work with and assists with filing documents. The transition was seemless and a relief to ensure all has been cared for as my family wou...ld hope. All whom I referred to her are extremely pleased.

Established my Revocable Living Trust in 1991, updated documents in 2013.

Pat Barrett was the attorney I chose to establish my Revocable Living Trust Estate Plan in 1991.. On that she is absolutely the best. She is extremely knowledgeable, insightful and thorough. She thinks of things that would never occur to you and that are crucial to your estate planning. She origin...ally did our Revocable Living Trust, Durable Power of Attorney for Property and Health, Pourover Will, and Directive to Physician. Last year she updated our trust. On both occasions she was superb. I have referred her to numerous friends and they all have been very pleased with her. I would always highly recommend her.

Excellent attorney

Patricia Barrett is my attorney for my estate planning and for my legal needs in two corporations. She is personable, knowledgeable and has always been available to help me through the legal morass of problems employers can have in California. I always refer friends to her that need living trus...ts or have questions about their estate plans.
