I worked with Summerall Law to create a trust and update my estate plan and was delighted by the experience (an odd thing to say about planning for end-of-life stuff, but nonetheless true!). I worked directly with Kelly, and he made the process easy to understand, interesting, and completely approachable. He was open to every question I had, helped me understand what my options were (and the pros and cons of each) at every step, and gave me wonderfully detailed follow-up instructions I could use to follow up once my plan was completed. There was one small blip in the process (it took longer than expected to get the digital version of my estate plan), but once the team was aware of it, they addressed it right away. Highly recommended!

Recommend against working with Julia, who had trouble explaining how her recommendations made sense given our basic request/questions. Kelly was fast an easy to create initial trust but trying to update was a pain. Got the run around via email, waited weeks to coordinate across multiple schedules for a follow up call they insisted was necessary and it became evident minutes into the conversation that this could have been easily resolved via email. They seem to crank out estates/trusts for folks covered under legal insurance plans (Legalease in my case), but don't care about customer service once done.

My spouse and I are very lucky to receive help from Julia - she did an excellent job with our very first estate plan! Before finding Summerall Law, we procrastinated over writing our wills for years. Because most of our family members are overseas, we had many questions about how our families would inherit our property without too much difficulty or hassle. Julia patiently listened to all of our questions no matter how big and small, and answered them with an open mind, words of knowledge and understanding. When she didn't know a specific detail on top of her head, she took the time to research the question and got back to us on the same day. She's meticulous with addressing our requests and getting details right when drafting the paperwork. With our wills done we have a bit more peace of mind. Julia took really good care of us - many thanks!

Summerall Law made our experience the smoothest, easiest and most enjoyable. My wife and I was interested in doing a living trust and we found them through Yelp. We chose Summerall because of the location and the rave reviews. I must say the reviews are accurate, they are a 5 star organization! Our lawyer that worked with us was Albert Wu and their assistant Che were incredible. We have no experience in this area and Albert was very patient and informative. He was easy to talk to and made everything so easy. We did everything virtually via phone, video, and email. The transaction couldn’t have gone any better and I would highly highly recommend Albert and his Summerall Law.

Questions & Answers

would you accept ARAG insurance as payment for a family trust? Thanks, Dawn

We do, it covers the attorney fees, you just pay for notary and property transfer fees (typically $300 for a couple).

Do you represent Adult Adoption clients?

We do not, our focus is estate planning and probate. We wish you the best of luck.

My sister's husband died and left a trust but he left her only $100.000.00. He started taking her name off of property when she got sick in 2103 and he mover her back home to Texas per request. Is that legal, does she have the right to contest this?

Hi Judy--It's best not to discuss confidential legal advice over a public forum like this one. If you email us through our website at summeralllaw.com we would be happy to help you, or you can call 415-944-9406 to schedule an appointment. I also recomend you delete your question so others can't see it. Thanks and best wishes.
