I recently consulted with Paul Miller to help my father get his estate planning in order, and I…read morecouldn't be more impressed with his integrity and honesty. After speaking directly with my father, Paul took the time to thoroughly understand his situation and then gave us advice that was genuinely in our best interest--not his. Instead of pushing an expensive trust or charging thousands of dollars, Paul explained that my father didn't actually need a trust at all. He walked us through how the existing account setups, beneficiary designations, and simple documents could accomplish everything we needed. Paul even provided the basic statutory forms for a Will, Durable Power of Attorney, and Advance Health Care Directive, explaining clearly how to complete them. Thanks to him, my father can put an effective estate plan in place for little more than the cost of notarization. Finding a lawyer who prioritizes transparency and client well-being over profit is rare. Paul saved us significant money and gave us peace of mind. I highly recommend the Law Office of Paul Miller to anyone looking for honest, straightforward estate planning guidance.

(I realize this now after having dealt with my mother's Trust attorney who was sloppy, had to be pushed to do anything and she'd get it messed up.) That is exactly opposite of Erika. Do yourself a favor and hire her! I sure wish my mom did.

I had a consultation back in February with Erica Copenhagen…read more She was very professional and informative. I was under the impression that there was no charge for the consultation. It wasn't until over two months later I was billed $566.67 for the consultation because I did not go with their firm. The only thing they made clear was that if I did not show up or cancel within a certain amount of time that they do charge. But they certainly did not make it clear that if you don't use the firm that they charge you for your consultation. To be clear, I would never agree to a consultation to pay $566.67 to a business that I did not know whether I would choose to do business with them or not. Erica returned my phone call today May 18, 2026. I explained the situation to her and through the course of our short conversation she consistently cut me off and talked over me. I had to ask her to please let me finish my sentence. At that point, I was informed that she was busy and had a client she had to get to but all the same she continued to over talk me on the matter. BE AWARE THEY CHARGE YOU FOR A CONSULTATION WHEN YOU DON'T USE THEIR FIRM!!!!!! And now I see backpedaling and miss information from Erica's response to me. You are not telling the truth. There's no way in hell you ever told me that there was a $566.67 charge three times. I would not have a greed to a consultation especially at that price. I don't know how many ways to phrase it to you, Erica, but it was not made clear to me that if I did not use your services, I would be charged. It's that simple. I don't expect people to work for free! By the same token, I just came in for a consultation to see if what you had to offer, was compatible to what I was looking for in a law firm.

His support staff was similarly capable, helpful and relational. My wife and I give Roy and the Law offices of Johnston Thomas the highest recommendation for this kind of legal work.

I would never trust this attorney, or his incompetent staff. He created a Living Trust for my…read moreparents that was not of a very good quality. It was extremely vague and left out a lot of important information and details. I know this because I am a certified Paralegal in California. I have assisted in preparing many estate plans, and this Trust was certainly written by an incompetent attorney. My sister deviously brought my Father who is 92, has full Dementia, complete heart and kidney failure, to this attorney to amend my parents Living Trust in only her favor. She removed my Uncle, who was the Executor of the Trust, and replaced him with my sister to now be the Executor of the Trust, and got my Father to also give her full Power of Attorney, medical and financial, of course. The entire Trust was changed by this attorney, for my sister's benefit only, and giving her full Executor status, and Power of Attorney so that no other Beneficiary would receive anything, which was not my parent's intent at all. Knowing that my Father has Dementia and is 92 and in grave health, the attorney allowed this change anyway, allowed my ill father to sign permission for these devious amendments, and made these ridiculous changes just to receive payment from my Father. He took advantage of my 92 year old Father with Dementia, and allowed him to sign for permission for these changes to outright benefit my sister only, who happens to be someone under current investigation for Fraud within the company she is employed with, after being already indicted for Fraud charges with my Father's long term care company. Everyone in the family is deeply upset and angry at this attorney for allowing these Fraudulent actions to take place, and changing the Living Trust fraudulently without even notifying any of the Beneficiaries or even the Executor until months after it was all written up. We were all mailed these Fraudulent and criminal like changes to the Trust months after the new invalid Trust was finished. We are suing this attorney for fraud and complete malpractice, and elder abuse for allowing this to even happen to a 92 year old man who had no idea what he was signing or that he was giving his criminal daughter full executorship and power of attorney. This attorney is a scam artist who will take your money, and you his incompetence in return. Beware of this attorney.

My case was extremely complex and emotionally exhausting. For eight long years, the court battle…read morecaused tremendous pain and stress for both me and my daughter. By the time Danielle took over my case at the end of 2024, I had already been through multiple attorneys and had almost lost hope. Danielle changed everything. She possesses exceptional knowledge of family law, but what truly sets her apart is her intelligence, strategic thinking, flexibility, and deep empathy. She has an astonishing memory and an incredible ability to identify the key issues immediately. In court, she is sharp, composed, and highly effective. Outside the courtroom, she genuinely cares about her clients and always thinks about the best way to solve problems while also saving unnecessary legal costs. In a very short period of time, Danielle accomplished major breakthroughs in my case that none of my previous attorneys had been able to achieve in years. The changes she helped create in both my life and my daughter's life have been profound. I truly feel that Danielle saved me and my daughter. She is not only an extraordinary attorney, but also a compassionate human being and, honestly, an angel in our lives. I do not have enough words to express my gratitude, trust, and respect for her. I will forever be thankful that she took my case.

Danielle is the most ethical, empathetic, intelligent, and capable attorney I have ever worked…read morewith. She has truly been a lifesaver for my children. Prior to meeting her, I had been in a custody battle with my ex for seven years. Despite the long-term physical and emotional abuse he inflicted on both our children and myself--resulting in significant medical and psychological harm--the court initially maintained a 50/50 custody arrangement even I showed the court thousands of pages of proof and documentation... So many nights, I woke up at midnight in tears, thinking about our poor little ones and feeling so helpless and desperate who could help them. That changed after Danielle took over my case. Within just a few months, the court not only granted me sole legal and sole physical custody, but also ordered that the children would not be forced to visit their father if they did not want to go. Since then, my children's symptoms have significantly improved. They have begun focusing on school and activities again, my older son's anxiety has noticeably decreased, and I can see their smiles returning. The custody dispute is still ongoing, as my ex continues to send police and strangers to my home and file various unrelated motions in an effort to harass me, despite three criminal charges for violation of my protective order and for falsifying court orders. However, the children are now well protected, and that is what matters most. I am deeply grateful for everything Danielle has done. She is not only extremely knowledgeable and intelligent, but also creative in problem-solving and, most importantly, deeply compassionate. She always prioritizes what is in the best interest of the children. It is rare to find an attorney with all of these qualities, and I feel very fortunate to have found her.
