Knowledgable and professional.

I first learned of Mark Drobny through an estate planning presentation sponsored by the San Diego Humane Society. He went step by step explaining wills and trusts, their different components, advantages and choices. It was so good, that it motivated me to create a trust and will and get my affairs i...n order. I made an appointment and Mark explained the process and ensured I understood all aspects. The resulting will and trust reflect everything I wanted plus more I wasn't aware I needed. I am confident that my estate is protected. He relieved my stress that moving forward it will continue to be protected and my wishes will be followed. Now that it is complete, he has given me clear instructions as to who should be informed, who should have copies of the different documents and in the future years, we will be revisiting my documents occasionally to keep them up to date. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mark Drobny to anyone who is considering creating a will and trust no matter how large or small.

PERFECTION

My wife and I have been with Mark Drobny for about 12 years now and we have found both he and his staff to be consummate professionals. My wife and I sleep better at night knowing that our estate/trust/will has been expertly planned and executed.

Mark Drobny did an excellent job in preparing our will.

I give Mark Drobny of Drobny Law Offices 5 stars for doing an excellent job preparing my Will. As part of preparing my Will, he gave me bound copies of my Will, Restated Trust, Durable Powers of Attorney for Financial Management and Advance Health Care Directives. He included five (5) unbound copie...s of my Advance Health Care Directives to be given to my primary care physician and my agents and alternate agents for health care decisions. He retained the original documents in his office in a fireproof safe. He also included two (2) Advance Health Care ID Cards, on to be kept with my driver’s license, and the other in the console of my car. I also received an Estate Planning binder containing copies of my executed documents, as well as ten (10) extra copies of my Certification of Trust and five (5) extra copies of my Advance Health Care Directive. I also received instruction on acquiring new real property, savings accounts, certificates of deposit, treasury bills, stocks, bonds and other property that might be subject to probate. These are to be taken in the name of the Family Revocable Trust which Mark Drobny amended and restated in their entirety. I received ten (10) copies of the Certification of my Trust which can be used when this occurs. This Certification of my Trust can be given to people when they ask for a copy of my Trust. The Certification has the relevant information they need, and not the entire Trust document which has confidential information. I was also given information on changing the secondary/contingent beneficiary designation on any new IRA’s, pensions, annuities, etc. to the “Trust” which Mark Drobny restated. I was also given information on changing the secondary/contingent beneficiary designation on any new life insurance policies to the “Trust” which Mark Drobny restated. I was also given information on changing the secondary/contingent beneficiary designation on any new savings accounts, certificates of deposit, securities, treasury bills, etc. to the “Trust” which Mark Drobny restated. As I waited in Mark Drobny’s office, I read his commitment to helping others receive a higher education. Mark received the CSUS President’s medal for Distinguished Service in June of 2014. He formed or chaired the planned giving committees for many major Northern California charities and is one of the region’s top experts on Charitable Remainder Trusts and other Planned Giving concepts. Mark has been a member of The Sacramento Estate Planning Council since 1982, was the founding editor of their monthly newsletter, and a member of their Board of Directors for eight years. Mark has served as a Judge Pro Tem for the Sacramento Superior Court’s Probate division for over 20 years. While meeting with Mark, he did not suggest or infer that a Charitable Remainder Trust or Planned Giving is something we should do.
