Family trust

Wife: Ed was very knowledgeable in helping us complete our trust. This was the first time my husband and I had gone through the steps to complete a trust, so we both had many questions. Ed welcomed all of our questions and was able to easily answer them. Husband: We hired him to create a Trust ...for us. As a lawyer his prime duty was to us, the clients. He showed that duty was second to none through his diligence and communication. During the entire process, Ed greeted us with a smile and an eager willingness to capture our needs and assist us in anyway possible. The official meetings at his office were professional and always welcoming. The back and forth talks through phone calls and messaging were equal to the office meetings. It was always professional and very helpful. When it came to signature day to finalize our Trust, everything was prepared appropriately, minus one typo, which Ed halted everything to correct right there. It was a small and insignificant typo, yet, Ed took the utmost care with handling it immediately because he cared to provide the best to us (clients). We appreciated that. Moving forward, after completing the Trust, Ed still remains vigilant with any of our questions or concerns. He has not faltered on his commitment to us. We truly recommend Ed Fong for anyone's needs tackling a Trust. We don't recommend him simply because of his competence, diligence and communication, but because of his personality and genuine care we felt and received.

COULDN'T BE HAPPIER!

Our Family Trust documents were initially prepared in 2004 and had become waaay outdated. In that the attorney that prepared those document had long since retired we hired another attorney that we had used previously for family relatives. After a year of waiting for a product from this attorney, my s...on recommended using Ed Fong who my son has known since early grade school. Ed and his Case Manager, Laurie, jumped on this assignment immediately, starting with a form to fill out, a conference call, and a meeting in his office. Ed touched base with our investment broker's office manager to insure that the trust documents would include language required by the firm to cover changes in the trust's co-trustee as pertained to the investment trust account as well as power of attorney language as pertained to IRA accounts. After my review of a draft set of documents and a couple minor edits, Ed and Laurie visited our home for the multitude of signings needed for the final documents. Shortly thereafter Ed hand delivered the signed documents in a beautifully formatted binder, not only tabbed by section but including explanations in layman's language of the legal language in the documents. Absolutely fantastic job!

Very Professional, efficient and well organized

We met with Ed Fong to redo an outdated Trust. My husband and I have a total of 5 grown children from previous marriages so having everything in writing was of the utmost importance. He explained everything about the Trust (revocable vs. irrevocable, division of property, funding the Trust, the impor...tance of listing certain items for distribution, advance health care directive, etc.) in language we could understand. He kept us up to date throughout the 5 weeks it took to complete the Trust. We had the initial consultation where we decided to hire him, met midway to review and clarify details of the Trust and then the final meeting where we signed the Trust. We felt totally confident in his work and recommended him to co-workers and family. It was such a big relief to get this done.
