I am a 70-year old professional and I wanted to ensure that my modest estate would be dealt with as I wish in the eventuality of my death. Clara set up a trust for my estate with all of the appropriate documentation, generated my will, and although I hope I never need them, helped me generate an advanced healthcare directive and a durable power of attorney that can be invoked should the need become reality. She is methodical and very thorough. I feel as though I have a valuable team member with Clara. I highly recommend Clara Yang, Attorney. read more

Ms. Yang was so kind and very knowledgeable. Her expertise in helping us prepare legal documents for my elderly father-in-law provided our family with much-needed peace of mind. We would highly recommend Ms. Yang! read more

I'm revisiting my review of this attorney to say she was not adequately versed in dealing with my issue, contrary to her representations. I had to move my issue to another law firm in order to get a satisfactory end to my parent's estate situation. I paid too much and got zero results. If considering this firm, I'd say be prepared for disappointment. read more

When I called, I would have liked to have been given an approximate price to prepare a trust. Had the minimum been provided I would have postponed making an appointment. Instead, I was charged $200 to find out. It took 15 minutes to find out. read more

She started to help draft a update to our family trust. Then during this process, one parent suffered major depression and became incapacitated. Other one had beginning symptoms of dementia. I left her a message while dealing with all this about how to proceed (updated trust was not signed because of this). After that, and repeated emails and phone messages she never responded even to acknowledge she understood the situation and help with what could be the next steps is any. Total blew us off without even returning a call or even an email to say that she declined to represent or service us. Never have I experienced this level of unprofessionalism. After waiting weeks for some kind of response, which never came, had to go to another lawyer. From the positive comments here, it seems she does handle some cases that are more than just filing paperwork, but for some reason, not with us. read more

Clara did our Will and Living Trust. She was very helpful with our questions. She is very knowledgeable and professional. I would definitely recommend her to do your Will and Living Trust read more

Clara Yang has helped me expertly with her vast knowledge of the legalities of setting up an estate to the best advantage of all members involved. She takes a very kind, personal interest in making sure all "bases are covered," and nothing is overlooked. She even gave us a most valuable suggestion which in the long run enabled us to retrieve some income tax funds which were paid out through an oversight (which she, of course, did not have to do at all.) She is very conscientious and hard working, and also very fair. Highly recommended. read more

I am a 64 year old MD, and I respect professional people. Clara is an serious professional and she is excellent at what she does. She does quality work and delivers what she promises. She also sincerely cares about her clients. I have had many dealings with attorneys over the years, and have many attorney friends. I know great attorneys when I see them. Two of my daughters are lawyers in San Francisco, and they graduated from Yale, Berkeley, Michigan, and Stanford. Clara is as good as they get, and I strongly recommend her. read more

Needed to amend some family trusts to change executors and beneficiaries, and make minor amendments to our wills. Wanted someone local and saw the positive yelp reviews and trusted them. At mtg Clara Yang said she charges $400 an hour which seemed fair. Figured this would be 4 hours tops. Second meeting she said the cost would be $4,500 to make all the changes. Wish she had told us that outright and saved us our time and the $400 she charged us just to get to the point of her telling us the cost. We did not pay $4,500 to have these trusts established in the first place and amending trusts should cost even less. And it should not require 11 billable hours to amend language in existing trusts! A lawyer friend of ours who practices in L.A. thought this sum outrageous. He's going to do it for us for $1,000 tops. We've hired very good attorneys before for various professional purposes, like overlooking contracts, negotiating complicated settlements, etc. whose hourly cost was higher but who did not inflate their billable hours and whose services were ultimately more affordable than this. We are a bit perplexed by this as it was so over the top. Very disappointed to have to write this review but given all the positive reviews, and the repeated comment that her pricing is fair, I feel compelled to warn consumers. At the very least, ask for her pricing before you take a meeting with her! read more

Clara just update my Revocable Trust and did and excellent job. She asked questions and brought up points I had never considered as part of this update. She has won my vote as an outstanding attorney. read more

Back in 2008 Clara handled my estate planning and trust and I was very impressed with her professionalism and her personality. I had some changes recently so she incorporated my documentation and reviewed all the latest information and changes in the taxation laws which she keeps up on. She is really a remarkable person both professionally and personally. If you are looking for honesty, straight talk, trust and a person who sincerely cares about her clients and what she does for you, Clara is the right person for you! read more

I am a Real Estate Broker in Arizona and have been working to get my elderly mother's estate planning in order (from afar) after she was given some poor advise and lack of timely follow up at "Senior Legal Services". Discovering Clara was such a gift!! She pulled everything together in record breaking time, worked very well (and patiently) with my mother when they met and was a pleasure to work with. We appreciate her professionalism and attention to detail and cannot thank her enough. read more

We had Clara update our exiting Trust that when completed was an entirely new document. She is very thorough, professional and extremely knowledgeable. All questions were answered with real-life examples of what would be appropriate for our situation. What impressed us the most were the details in the document which will make it easier for anyone who administers our Trust. Highly recommended!! read more
