Knowledgeable Attorney for Kids Protection Plan

Lalit Kundani at Kundani and Chang helped my husband and I with a Kids Protection Plan for my two youngest boys a little under a year ago. He was so informative throughout the entire process, answering questions promptly and providing feedback. Legal matters can be intimidating but working with profe...ssionals as Mr. Kundani who are knowledgeable and trustworthy make the process much easier.

Great experience on my estate plan

Our family did an estate plan many years back when my wife and me bought a house. We wanted to update it to include our kids in case something happened to us. We also bought some other properties that needed to be added. A coworker colleague of mine referred Lalit Kundani so I called and we met with ...him for an initial 2 hour consultation (free). He went over my old plan and pointed out things where actually the law changed and why my plan would cost more. We didn't realize how much the law on this stuff changes pretty frequently so you either need to be on top of it yourself or get an attorney who will review your plans for you. Long story short, I ended up redoing my plan completely instead of updating it, to take advantage of some of the tax savings with these recent changes. The plan cost about double what I had paid initially, but worth every penny. My old plan would have sent my assets to probate and my old attorney basically had a "set it and forget it" mentality. Kundani & Chang said they will go through my docs regularly and let me know when the law changes and things need to be updated. Great experience working with him, they know their stuff!!

Best estate planning attorney in the OC!

My husband and I found out about Kudnani & Chang after I delivered with our second. They did a webinar on legal guardianship for kids. We contacted them to create a Kids protection plan that would ensure legal guardians for my kids were named in case anything happened to me or my husband. My sister d...id something similar and we were just expecting a simple document but the whole packet/binder is very professional that they did for us. There was also a lot of other things they covered for us that we never thought about!! It took a couple weeks to get everything done but the process is very easy and painless. I've referred all of our friends with kids there too and they take care of everyone. The most important thing for us was peace of mind and I would strongly recommend them again.

Exceptional Attorney

Lalit is an extremely thorough and knowledgeable attorney. He outlined a plan of action to take care of a criminal matter that my brother had pending against him. With his help and the help of his partner, my brother's criminal case was dealt with in the quickest and smoothest way with no jail time. ...I would highly recommend him and his firm.
