My experience with the Collins Law Group was highly informative and comprehensive. The webinar presented by the firm was thorough, you do not know what you do not know. Probate is a costly process and sadly many people lose the properties they inherit from their loved ones. During the process of creating my Living Trust I received peace of mind. Having a Living Trust gives me peace of mind knowing that my daughters will not have to go through Probate. Having a medical directive in place is comforting. I truly recommend that other families plan with the Collins Law Group because they are thorough, personable, friendly, and they make it so easy to make an informed decision. The personalized family planning video they presented me with made it easier to understand the context in my Living Trust. I will be recommending my friends and family to this Firm.
“My mother told me about the Collins Law Group and I must say, the entire experience has been a real pleasure. Although I was nervous at first, the Collins Law Group staff put me at ease with their friendliness and knowledge. I didn’t realize how hard it could be on your family and loved ones left behind if you die without any planning or directions in place for them. My biggest concern was making sure my elderly mother would be provided for and taken care of if something happened to me. I have been a caregiver for her for 12 years, so this planning was crucially important. I had previously made a living trust for myself on Legal Zoom but there is no comparison to the level of service and professionalism that Collins Law Group embodies. Attorney Collins and her staff provides excellent service and it will take a large burden off of my family when they need guidance at the time of my passing.”
“Collins Law Group is totally professional yet down to earth. They cover every detail whether small or large. No stone goes unturned. They are a concerned and complete business that seeks to answer questions and give their clients true peace of mind. A lot of people think having a Will is good enough but it’s not. In California, ALL wills get probated. People have to have a trust. We once tried to create our own living trust on Legal Zoom and soon realized that it wasn’t going to work. With everything we’ve invested and accumulate in our lives, I realized that I needed to trust our legacy to a professional that we could work in collaboration with. We realized we didn’t want to go to the bargain basement to protect our assets, we needed the real thing. This was particularly important after a heart surgery was needed and health issues arose. It was a wake-up call that we needed to get serious. We now feel better knowing that our two sons are fully protected from probate. We love the Collins Law Group.”
“I was referred by a friend and the process was surprisingly pleasant and smooth. I approached the experience with more openness because of the referral and once I attended the seminar, I knew I had made the right decision. I highly recommend the Collins Law Group. People should definitely plan with them because Attorney Collins eliminates the guesswork about necessary protections for yourself and family from start to finish. Having worked for the Department of Social Services for 43 years, I have seen a lot. For instance, one of my clients passed away with a living trust but she chose an untrustworthy successor trustee to handle her affairs. The Collins Law Group assured us of why it was so important that I choose wisely when determining who would be left in charge. I did that! Additionally, the firm provides a customized video that explains each client’s plan in great detail. Our niece loved it because she was able to get a good understanding of what all was entailed. The Collins Law Group takes it to another level with resources they provide.”
“Collins Law Group has been wonderful for the past 10 years. I became a client in 2008 and they have been nothing short of excellent since then. I have been blessed and relieved in knowing that I have an estate plan with the firm. The Collins Law Group has become a part of my family and I have become a part of theirs. In fact, all clients become their family because that’s the way they treat you. I know they’re a law firm/business but Attorney Collins and her staff are so considerate and caring. You forget that you’re at a law office because it just feels like home. Throughout the years, the Collins Law Group has kept me up to date with changes in the law. They have reviewed my plan and have been available for free phone calls whenever I was in need of their services. They make sure that clients revisit their documents through periodic reviews to ensure that everything is still to their liking. And if it’s not, they’re there to help you figure it all out every step of the way. Thank you Collins Law Group.”
“I was referred to the Collins Law Group seminar by a friend. I actually went to two of the free wills and trusts seminars because I brought a friend the second time because I knew they’d also benefit from it. I had no idea that wills and living trusts were two different things and that only having a will would automatically put your estate through probate. Yes, in California, all Wills get probated. That’s mandatory! My experience creating the living trust with the firm has been excellent. Attorney Collins and her staff are very professional, well organized and knowledgeable. The icing on the cake was the customized video that was prepared for me. It explained all of the documents in great detail and its available for me to show my family because they give each client their own customized video. That to me is brilliant. The video explains all answers to the questions you might have and of course, the firm is always available to answer questions themselves. I highly recommend the Collins Law Group.”
“It’s shocking how many people should be planning but never get it done. I procrastinated for over two years not knowing where to start until I heard about the Collins Law Group. Before I retained the firm, I attended Attorney Collins’ free wills and trust seminar. I loved it! It was very informative and I learned tons. I had an aunt who got her estate planning done before she passed. She left the house to almost one dozen family members and had chosen the right person to handle the beneficiaries (successor trustee). Her having a living trust saved us a whole lot of drama. I know I’m going to provide the same hassle free experience for my kids because the Collins Law Group has been excellent. They are a great representation of what the community needs and what I had been looking for. They truly care and they’re looking to build lasting relationships with their clients and the community. I couldn’t have chosen a better firm.”
“As a pastor for 25 years of large Los Angeles churches, my family and I have seen families suffer through probate. We went to a Collins Law Group seminar four years ago but procrastinated. At the Estate Planning seminar, we were reminded just how much we wanted to avoid probate. So when our son really started pushing us to get this planning done, we knew it was time. We have friends who are clients of Collins Law Group and they sing praises to the work Attorney Collins and her staff does. We love the professionalism, patience and understanding that she and her staff possess. They are conscientious, organized and above all else, excellent professionals. We are definitely recommending our son and other people we know to get their planning done with Attorney Collins and her team.”
“Attorney Mark Costley and staff are a focused, organized, compassionate and knowledgeable team. They handle the details of my estate and health care choices. This assurance leaves me to focus on now instead of worrying about things later ; a reassurance that when the time comes for others to take over the decision making everything will be in place giving me less burden to carry now and more time to enjoy life. I am grateful that I am watched over by this firm. Even more grateful that if others are not there to see to the business at hand a member of the firm will do so without hesitation. I highly recommend that folks sit down and get real about taking care of what they will leave behind and what matters to them the most. This team will listen.
Thank you.”
“The seminar was fantastic. The comprehensive nature of the presentation gave me total confidence in the knowledge and professionalism of Attorney Collins. She made me comfortable and proved that I could find a firm of this caliber in my own neighborhood. I was thoroughly impressed. Although I had a Living Trust made by another firm years ago, the one prepared by the Collins Law Group was much more detailed and comprehensive. The Collins Law Group is a great asset to our community and the families they protect.”
