You can't go wrong with Johanna Gomez

Johanna has represented my husband and me for about 12 years. She drafted our estate documents and assisted us with several complex estate issues dealing with international law. Johanna also represented the majority of the seniors in our mobile home park some years back when the roof fell in on the c...lubhouse and the management refused to make the repairs for over five years. Through Johanna’s efforts, the residents of the park received a settlement that was valued in the neighborhood of $250,000 but Johanna did not charge us a dime: the entire case was handled on a pro bono basis. Johanna has also held free legal clinics in our park. Her dedication to seniors and to her profession is unparalleled.And we are proud to have her as a friend.

Brilliant! Honest! A Lifesaver!

I highly recommend contacting Johanna Gomez to be your lawyer. .Several years ago upon the death of my in-laws, we inherited the conservatorship, including a special needs trust, of my brother-in-law. The conservatorship had never been required to file an accounting with the court in 20 years, but s...uddenly , they demanded reporting 10 years in arrears! It was a frightening, confusing and costly requirement. When Johanna took over our case, she guided us through the process, reassuring us, answering questions, and minimizing expenses. We felt safe, relieved and confident in her hands. Since then, Johanna has handled many other questions regarding our own estate and future planning quickly and efficiently. I value her advice and performance immensely.

The Best of the Best

Johanna has helped me for several years now in setting up my living trust as well as other personal matters. She is quick, responsive and at a very reasonable, competitive rate. I TRUST HER WITH MY LIFE. I have recommended her services to family, friends, co-workers and all have been helped by Joha...nna. My mother loves her. We all are extremely pleased with her and we continue passing the good word along to others. Look her up, you will not regret it.

Trustworthy and Very Effective

Johanna has represented me and my family in estate planning, estate administration, and senior issues for the last 10 years. Johanna has always been extremely attentive to us. Like any good attorney, Johanna’s time is highly sought after; therefore, in when I call I know that she will probably not be... immediately available. However, Johanna always gets back to me within 24 hours if not sooner. Further, when I have had emergency circumstances Johanna’s staff has contacted Johanna on her cell phone and she returned my call immediately. In addition, Johanna has always made herself available for home visits and she has always been willing to meet with us in the evenings or weekends to accommodate our schedules. In addition, Johanna has always been very generous with her billing and she has never charged us for the expenses that most attorney’s charge for like postage, express delivery charges, photocopying, or on-line research. I am very happy that I have Johanna to represent me.
