Honest, very honest.

I was referred to Anna to explain some issues regarding my parent’s Trust. Our first conversation was a little lengthy but she made the situation a bit more comfortable. She advised me there could be some things that I might not want to hear but she would be nothing but honest with me. She called ...me exactly at the scheduled time after she had a chance to go over the Trust. As stated, she was honest and apologized that she couldn’t give me a 100% of the news I would have liked to hear. She was quite caring while being honest and once again made me feel at ease. I am very appreciative that Anna took her time to explain and help me understand the Trust wording. I hope beyond hope that I Do Not have to use Anna’s services but, if I do, she will definitely be the one I call to represent our Family Trust.

Disappeared and bailed on me

I had retained the services of Anna through Surf City Lawyers and paid my retainer fee. She actively helped me but when she broke away from her partner she ceased all work, told me that she has completed things when the fact she never had. She wouldn’t return phone calls or emails

Fails to communicate

Me and my wife had hired Anna to help us with an estate plan back in the Fall of 2018. Anna was a very friendly and helpful attorney at the beginning of consultation process, but after paying a retainer and hiring Anna to create the estate plan, the communication dropped and it would take several ema...il and or phone calls to get a hold of her. In the contract we signed for the estate plan, we outlined that we would like to have a draft of the estate plan within 3 weeks. She agreed to the timeline, but unfortunately did not meet the deadline. It is now June of 2019 and Anna has failed to produce a draft Estate Plan. We will be filing a complaint with the California Bar Association for lack of communication and failure to comply with the contracted services. I would not recommend her for Estate Planning Services due to her poor communication and her failure to meet with reasonable time-frames of completion.

Learn from my mistake and go with Anna first

I came to Anna midcase, she didn’t hesitate to jump right in. Anna went up and beyond to help. She kept me informed through the whole process. She focused on what was important and didnt drag things out. I only wish I would have found her from the start. I can tell you this Anna truly cares about he...r clients.

Her zealous advocacy skills translate to all work she performs on behalf of her clients. I recommend my friend Anna Serrambana without reservation.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
