    We found ourselves needing to move forward with estate planning during a difficult and uncertain…read moretime, and we honestly had no idea where to start. Stefanie's testimonials were what first drew us to her. She came across as knowledgeable, personable, and someone we would feel comfortable working with, and that turned out to be exactly right. Working with Stefanie made what could have felt like an overwhelming process feel clear, manageable, and straightforward. She was incredibly kind, understanding, and accommodating with our schedule, especially while we were juggling doctor's appointments and personal matters. She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and made the entire process feel much less intimidating. Throughout the process, we felt supported, never rushed, and truly cared for. Stefanie is organized, patient, thorough, and genuinely compassionate. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an estate planning attorney who is not only knowledgeable, but also kind and understanding during life's more challenging moments.

    Stefanie has been absolutely exceptional. This is the second time I have worked with her on my…read moreestate planning, and once again, she exceeded every expectation. After I got married, my estate situation became significantly more complex. Stefanie guided me through every detail with remarkable clarity and patience, ensuring that nothing was overlooked and that all documents were fully aligned with my new circumstances. Her ability to explain sophisticated legal issues in plain, understandable language made the entire process stress-free. What truly sets Stefanie apart is her combination of technical excellence and genuine care for her clients. She is meticulous, responsive, and deeply invested in delivering work of the highest quality. I felt completely confident that my family's future is protected because of her diligence. I would not trust my estate planning to anyone else. If you are looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, thorough, and a pleasure to work with, I recommend Stefanie without hesitation.

    In 2023, I heard about Guideway from a title company (who would not help me) when my mother passed…read moreaway and I needed to get the deed/title for home changed as her successor trustee. The process was smooth, clear, efficient, and less expensive than I expected for legal work. In 2025, I remembered my good experience and contacted Guideway again. As successor trustee of a different estate which includes a house that is not paid off, I was asked by the mortgage company for proof that the trust was still valid. This trust is from 2017 and had no connection with Guideway. I was at a loss about what would prove that the trust was still valid; nothing had changed. I was so happy to reach Ian Duncan at Guideway! He knew what I needed immediately, told me what it would cost (once again, not much!), and shared clearly what the steps would be. I work full time and don't live very close to Walnut Creek, but we were able to do everything online. Ian also took my phone call when I had questions (some of which were more like irrational worries), and talked me though my concerns and what the options were. He was so clearly experienced, knowledgeable, professional, and also warm and understanding. His patience showed no end when I asked for a small follow-up revision (out of my own caution, likely unnecessary) on the document. He quickly revised it and sent it to me within hours. Throughout the process, Ian was very responsive and efficient -- even replying to me outside of business hours, which I would never expect -- and was friendly, clear, and patient. I'm so happy to have Guideway, especially Ian, and to have this bureaucratic issue resolved. Thank you!!

The…read moreprobate process is not fun, you will want it to be over as soon as possible, so you want to work with someone that will care as much as (if not more than) you do. I do not hesitate to recommend Demiris. Detailed: Litigating probate is a very uncomfortable process, particularly if you're not used to lawsuits or lawyers. The emails and court filings are intimidating. I was still grieving the loss of my dad, and now I had the stress of fighting over his estate. And I've got a job and kids and a life. Enter Kosta Demiris. He took over and my problem became his problem. He is smart and quick on his feet and efficient. He knows what he's talking about and doesn't hesitate. And I really do believe that he cared about my situation. He mobilized his team who helped me present financial statements and draft arguments. I tend to be wordy, but Kosta and his team were able to succinctly and effectively document my positions and present the facts. The team knows what information is important and what is not, and they don't play around. Kosta likes to win. He is intense (in the best way possible) and will fight for you. The resolution achieved with Kosta was far better than had I just accepted the other party's offer. I recommend the Demiris team because they worked hard for me and were able to get a positive resolution efficiently. Trust me, you'll want it over, and Demiris can help you do that.
