I did quite a bit of research once we decided it was time to our trust. I feel we made the right decision with choosing Wagon Legacy. We received excellent customer service; we were treated with respect and professionalism. We had several nuances, we received suggestions and direction without feeling pressured. I would highly recommend Wagon Legacy! read more

We decided to go with The Wagon Legacy for our trust. All the people who helped us were knowledgeable,professional and helpful. There was no pressure and we were encouraged to call If we had any questions. We were very glad to have our trust with this organization.

I am so happy with the level of service I received here! I came looking to set up a trust for my son and it was easy to set it up and I also got so much more, things I hadn't even thought about. I worked primarily with Angela and she was great about answering my questions. I have already referred two friends here. Highly recommend. read more

My team at The Wagon Legacy, Gustavo and Julie, were excellent, always warm and professional. When my brother passed away, I was assigned as the administrator of his estate. He did not have a will and navigating this was such a daunting task so having Gustavo and Julie working with me was invaluable. They took care of so much and gave clear guidance on all of the information I needed to gather and tasks I needed to do. It is a long process and I was grateful for their help from beginning to end. read more

Great service and very professional people and great family business ... they are always working around your schedule to pencil you in a appointment read more

Alex is an outstanding family trust attorney. She took the time to understand our unique family dynamics and goals, and was highly responsive and patient with our questions and concerns throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond to ensure our trust was organized, planned, and completed meticulously and efficiently. We couldn't recommend her more highly. read more

Working as a real estate broker who has collaborated with more than a hundred trust and probate attorneys over the years, I've had the privilege of working with Alex Varela and Gustavo Huerta of the Wagon Legacy on separate probate estate sales. Both delivered exceptional representation for their clients. They are knowledgeable, responsive, and deeply committed to the people they serve. It's a pleasure partnering with professionals who not only understand the legal complexities of probate, but also genuinely care about protecting their clients' best interests. I highly recommend the Wagon Legacy for anyone seeking estate planning, trust, or probate services. read more

I worked with Wagon Legacy to revise my Family Trust. From start to finish it was an extremely positive experience. The process and schedule were laid out clearly to me. My attorney, Gustavo, was attentive to my needs and goals, and always accessible. Having done some research beforehand, I feel the pricing was reasonable. In short, I couldn't have been happier with the process and the support I received from the Wagon Legacy team, and I recommend them highly. read more

They were very helpful and easy to work with. I definitely recommend them to anyone needing a trust.

I attended a free seminar that Alex did at my local community center. She was very organized and professional and I learned a lot about estate planning specific to California. Even when someone was asking so many questions I thought she might get annoyed she seemed more than happy to help the entire time and that really impressed me. She seems very passionate about estate planning and very transparent about everything. read more

They charge you just for an appointment. Nobody else has asked me for money upfront.....

Happy we came across The Wagon Legacy here on Yelp. They have given my husband and I the time and attention to detail we needed to create our Trust. We believe the value they offer in their services that are so thought out and take out any of the guess work is worth every penny paid. Thanks to the team that worked on all the planning, drafting, and meetings to assure we're getting exactly what we expected and more! read more

Great preliminary meeting. Now setup for design and planning meeting. Can give full review after completing the whole process. They seem to have your interests in mind and offer complete planning. read more

Wagon Legacy set up our trust. The attorneys were very very thorough and pleasant to work with. We spent time with them in the office and also connected online to provide material and answers to important questions. They are just so kind and patient. Both my wife and I now feel confident that should we pass away, our children will be in good hands with a clear and concise plan. Thank you to the Varela law firm. read more

Helped me even though they couldn't help me. They referred me to the right people to help.

We had a morning Saturday appointment. Steve (I think was his name) presented the introductory presentation. He explained the process and terms very well. Price was shared at the end of the presentation. There was no pressure to commitment. Would highly recommend Bonus coffee available, haha. read more

My husband and I had talked about setting up a trust for years. We kept putting it off, thinking we never had the time or money to do it. This year we finally decided to look into the process. We were referred to The Wagon Legacy by our financial advisor who also used their services. We have been very happy with the service provided by all members of the team at The Wagon Legacy. Professional and extremely knowledgeable, the staff walk you through every step of the process. read more

After interviewing several trust firms for our estate planning, we met with The Wagon Legacy. While our case wasn't overly complex and their quote was in the "high-middle" range, Alex and her team immediately stood out. We were so impressed that we hired them on the spot. Alex is not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional but truly passionate about her work. She was always prompt with emails, patient with our questions, and provided thorough guidance every step of the way. The entire process was seamless. We couldn't have asked for a better experience--highly recommend! read more

I consulted with Wagon Legacy about a probate matter. We ended up going with another firm, and that was a big mistake. Alex and her staff were very good listeners and very responsive to our questions. In hindsight, we should have hired Wagon Legacy. read more

We had a great experience thanks to attorney Stephanie and the entire staff. I thought I could do this on my own, and I could get it 80% right, but oh that 20%. I recommend TWL to everyone. AND the office is right next to Fish in a Bottle sushi. What else do you need?! read more

Recently made contact with Alex in regards to needing to create a living trust for myself. We only spoke by phone about it never meeting in person, but she seemed attentive about wanting to help. Ultimately, I decided to continue looking elsewhere as her costs were too high for my budget and emails were taking longer to be answered as time went on. read more

I went to The Wagon Legacy to prepare my Family Trust, Will and Final Directive. They were professional from the start, very helpful with my concerns and made me confident that everything was done in an accurate and professional manner. I whole heartedly recommend them for your legal needs. It's been several months and they've checked in with me twice to make sure everything is still good and if I had any updates. You will not be disappointed in their service. read more

We started our estate planning process with this firm, handing over all of the requested documents. We then received a form with all of the basic information entered. When we asked to review the prepared documents, we were told that we first needed to set a date for signing the documents. We went back and forth on that but eventually relented to scheduling a date. Not sure what happened but we never received any documents to review. The signing date came and went with no contact from the firm. Months later, we got an email asking us to set a date for signing the documents. We decided to look for another firm. read more

While searching for an estate attorney, I sent the request out on Yelp and The Wagon Legacy was the first one to respond to me. I checked out their website (very professional, with real photos and informative) and Yelp review which is the most I've seen compared to other places. The appointment process was simple. I set up a call the same day and I briefly shared my situation and I was given a price range and info. I then made an appointment for the same week and you are charged a refundable $50 fee for the consultation. (If you use their service moving forward, they will subtract $50 from the fee, if you don't use them, you get it refunded). All the information I needed was sent to me via email and I met with Julie who was a pleasure to talk with and was very informative. While I won't be using their services for this particular issues, she gave me good advice and kept communications with her open if I need further help. I also got my refund quickly after informing them of my decision. In the future, I do plan to use them for estate planning with my wife. Highly recommended. read more

My wife and I finally decided to create our personal living trust and will. We did our research and met with more than one firm. We ultimately decided on the Wagon Legacy. The Wagon Legacy has stood out for their promptness in answering all of our questions, their efficiency in walking us through the entire process, and the thoroughness from which has become our living trust and will. You're in great hands with the Wagon Legacy. read more

Alex and her team are very professional. The attorney Angela is very helpful, she explains the process and steps carefully. The whole process from consultation to finalizing the trust was detailed and organized. Could not be happier with their services and will definitely recommend the firm. read more

No kidding, I'd give them all the stars in the universe, but I can only give them 5. I lost my best friend, my father, in 2020. He didn't have a trust and was working on his will when he passed. If I had known then what I know now, I would have pressured my dad into creating a trust. Doing so would have spared me the pain of losing my sister and nephews through the painful process of probate. My sister and I were inseparable. Never would I have thought greed would be a factor in any way. It was hard enough losing my dad. It's been over four years, and there is still no closure; we are still in probate. I learned from this harsh and heartbreaking experience and did my research. I found the lovely couple, Alex and Steve, and ther wonderful team at The Wagon Legacy, who are both lawyers with a beautiful, heartfelt story. They were so specific, kind, and thorough throughout the whole process. Clear and concise. It is rare to find people who know the value of great work and trust in a world full of people who will not go above and beyond for you. From beginning to end, there was genuine care and dedication. My father was a "give it all you've got" kind of person, a "do it right the first time" kind of person. He trusted in handshakes. I gravitate toward people like that and look for people like that in my life. This law firm gave it their all and did it right the first time. It started with a handshake and ended with one. How can something so easy to do be so hard for us to decide to do it? I'm so glad I did. Now I know my partner will be okay when I leave this earth. If you have ever struggled to find your loved one a gift, this is it--do a trust for them. It feels as though a big weight has been taken off my shoulders. May you find the same peace I found because of them. Many blessings to you all, always and in all ways. read more

I was referred to Wagon Legacy after a negative experience with another law firm. The attorneys working for Wagon are professional in their approach. They offered a free consultation and took time to answer my questions. They offered a fair value to do my living trust. read more

Everyone is amazing. They made my mom and dad feel comfortable and they empowered them to do what is right for them. I could not ask for anything more. read more

The staff is friendly and helpful.My wife and I were impressed with the initial meeting and follow-ups. I'm happy to recommend Wagon Wheel Estate Planning... There's a cute reason for the firm's name read more

5 stars all around for Varela Law! We found Varela Law on Yelp a couple of years ago when I was looking for an Estate Planning Attorney for my aging in-laws. Alex Varela had glowing reviews so I gave their office a call. Our journey with Varela Law started with setting up a trust for my in-laws who had quite a few assets that needed to be protected and placed into a trust, should anything happen to them. The process from beginning to end was very smooth and seamless. So much so that my husband and I also hired them for our own trust. During our meetings with Alex, we could feel her genuine care and concern for us as her clients. With estate planning, there will inevitably be conversations about death and other matters that can be uncomfortable and sensitive... however, Alex made us feel well-cared for and explained everything in a way that was clear, comprehensive, and put our minds at ease. She has an amazing staff behind her that assisted in scheduling appointments, ensuring we were submitting the proper documents, notarizing documents, and sending appointment/follow-up reminders - all of which contributed to the seamless process of setting up our families' trusts. It is evident that Alex is an incredibly knowledgeable estate planning attorney. But what makes her stand out is that she is compassionate and understands that estate planning can be a stressful process, so she does everything she can to ensure that her clients are well-informed if anything were to happen to them or their loved ones. Just a few years after I helped set up my in-laws trust, my MIL suffered a stroke. That being said, it has been a difficult time, but thanks to Varela Law, all of their assets have been gathered together and 'placed in a wagon' as Alex would put it, so that us kids can pick up the handle and continue on with life. This has helped us to put our focus on caring for my MIL in long-term care and beyond. We are so grateful for the service that Alex and her team has provided us and we highly recommend her for your estate planning needs. You won't be dissapointed! read more

Alex and her team are amazing! Not to mention, the offices of Varela Law are beautiful! From the moment we stepped through the front we felt at home. We brought our three-year-old daughter, since we couldn't find a sitter and Varela Law team was so sweet to her. We recommend Varela Law to anyone looking for estate planning - wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and plans to protect your family. We appreciate you Alex and we are thankful to you and your team for taking care of us and helping us secure our Legacy. Aponte Family! :) read more

The Wagon Legacy - our daughter with mommas shower cap... Lol - Wills, Trusts, & Probates Near Me - Brea, California

En mi vida hay ciertas cosas que me generan más stress que otras, y ser responsable de la seguridad financiera de mis padres y hermanos era la mayor. Gracias a Alex y The Wagon Legacy pude descargar esa angustia en ellos pues me ayudaron a organizar, planear y resolver trámites legales que me impedían tener un panorama claro del futuro financiero de mi familia. Alex y su equipo de profesionales me dieron la mano de una manera muy personal. Atendieron mi caso con mucho detalle y extendieron su servicio a nivel internacional, conectándonos con profesionales que pudieran manejar los documentos necesarios requeridos para los trámites entre dos países. Con los ojos cerrados recomiendo a Alex y su equipo. El mundo de Dios es perfecto, con El todo se puede y sus leyes están llenas de amor, justicia y paz. Pero el mundo y las leyes humanas son más complicadas y debemos apoyarnos en profesionales en cada rama para poder tener la serenidad de disfrutar de nuestra vida terrenal acorde a sus leyes. Mateo 22:21 Si eres jardinero, haz lo mejor para que la naturaleza se vea más hermosa! Si eres director de orquesta has lo mejor para guiar a tus músicos a reflejar los sonidos que tocan el Alma. Es de buenos abogados de la ley ayudarnos a entender y encaminarnos en las leyes que organizan cada país. Alex, mi madre, mi familia y yo por siempre te agradeceremos a ti y a tu equipo maravilloso por estar allí para escucharnos, guiarnos y encaminarnos. Dios te Bendiga a ti a tu familia y al equipo que acompaña tu misión. Roxana read more
