Excelent Attorney/CPA Services

I hired Steve Yahnain to help me with some government tax and business planning matters that I had been dealing with. Mr. Yahnian proved to be extremely knowledgeable of the tax laws and was able to successfully resolve my matters and also help me with some tax saving business plans that has greatly ...worked to my benefit. Mr. Yahnian was very professional in handling my matters and treated me respectfully. He is a very intelligent attorney and CPA with sophisticated ideas with a strong command of the laws in which I highly recommend his services to anyone. I have continued to use Mr. Yahnian’s services on an ongoing basis.

If you are in need of someone to represent you in the most professional and personal way. My only recommendation is Mr. Yahnian.

Three years ago we were in need of a tax attorney to help us out of a situation that could have been far more worse for us if we had not found Mr. Yahnian. My previous tax preparer was not the person I should have put my trust in. This person put us in a 2 year hole and we needed to be brought out... of it and stabilized immediately. Mr. Yahnian was not a referral to me. His website was the only thing I had to go with and it was a great start. My first meeting with him was all I needed. He listened thoroughly to everything I had to say. He immediately had a game plan for what it would take to get us back on track. But before he started he educated me and helped me understand far better than I had before about the tax world. I never thought I would be needing the help from a tax attorney. The mistakes that were made previously got the attention from you know who which created a lot of stress. Not once did he bad mouth the previous preparer which is true professionalism. The one thing he continued to do was assure me saying, " we will get through this and get you back on track ". When he said "we" he meant his team and me! That is what sold me. Not to forget his spiritual faith either. After he talked with me I didn't need any further convincing he was the right person for the job. Mr. Yahnian made me feel like I was the only client he had. I know that wasn't true but that is how I felt. To this date I am still represented by Mr. Yahnian for our tax needs and services and also our financial concerns that effect our taxes. Mr. Yahnian and his team have treated me as if I were family and that itself is greatly appreciated.

Will & Trust Interview & Preparation

My husband and I met with Mr. Yahnian regarding preparing our will and trust. We had met with another attorney in Visalia previously, but did not appreciate that attorney personally interjecting how she felt our children's inheritance should be handled. Mr. Yahnian did not do that. He listened car...efully, gave sound legal advice, and told us that he would setup our will & trust based on our wishes. Both my husband and myself highly recommend Steve Yahnian. He is a true professional that listens to the needs and wishes of his clients.

He has a concern for your needs and works to attain the desired results. I would certainly recommend Steve for any legal advice or legal... services.

Living trust and forming corporations

He's great! He's been our family attorney for over 20 years. He's very knowledgeable. If he isn't sure about something he checks it out and gets back to you in a timely manner. I have advised others to go to him. They have been very pleased and impressed also. He's also really easy to understand. Leg...al documents are very difficult for me to understand. I need someone like Mr. Yahnian to explain it to me.
