I reached out to Shahram Miri's office and it was inherently obvious that I need not look any further to seek help.

Though we went through much of this remotely due to the pandemic, from the very first meeting, it was clear that he's not only incredibly knowledgeable and thorough, but also a genuinely kind and empathetic person. A true family man who understands the emotional weight of estate planning. We had put off this process for years--it always felt too tough. But Adam walked us through everything with clarity and patience. He explained the legal concepts in a way that made sense, and gave us a detailed checklist to help transfer all our assets into the trust. That alone was a game-changer. What really stood out was how he handled the heavier topics with a matter-of-fact approach that was still deeply compassionate. He made it feel okay to talk about the hard stuff, and that made all the difference. Thanks to him, we now have peace of mind knowing our family is protected and our wishes are clearly laid out. I honestly can't imagine how we'd feel today if we hadn't taken this step with his help.

It's crucial to have someone knowledgeable to help you navigate through it all while also being someone whom you can "trust". I would not hesitate for a moment to seek out Janet if a trust need were to arise. She also shared with me that she charges less than other trust attorneys. Why go anywhere else?
