Dear Elizabeth,

You have been the most caring professional person I have ever worked with – I wish you the best forever!

Thank you!

The level of detail Elizabeth and I put into my trust gives me peace of mind knowing that my family will be taken care of when I pass.

Five Star Review

Before choosing the Johnson Law Firm I did a lot of research. The proof that I had made the right decision came after Elizabeth finished my trust. Friends who used do it yourself programs or other Lawyers would say to me “my lawyer didn’t tell me that” or “the online program didn’t offer me that option”. My biggest fear in creating this trust was that I didn’t know what I didn’t know and that I might miss something important. The level of detail Elizabeth and I put into my trust gives me peace of mind knowing that my family will be taken care of when I pass.

… we finally realized the importance of a Trust, Advance Directive and Wills, we chose Elizabeth Johnson to guide us through the process.

Five Star Review

When we finally realized the importance of a Trust, Advance Directive and Wills, we chose Elizabeth Johnson to guide us through the process. Of course there were many more details than we’d imagined. She was patient and detail oriented and was always available to us, even for the simplest questions we had. Keep in mind, these can be uncomfortable conversations to have, even with your spouse! Elizabeth offered insight and even anecdotes to put things in perspective instead of applying a Cookie Cutter solution to us. She has provided follow up in making sure we complete our end of the necessary steps. We have Peace of Mind now.

Elizabeth was very helpful during the consult, explaining the process, timeline and types of necessary documents.

Five Star Review

Elizabeth was very helpful during the consult, explaining the process, timeline and types of necessary documents. The next step of a comprehensive info transfer while tedious was excellent – necessary for a good end product.

Elizabeth took time explaining the nuances and interplay of the documents based on our info and wishes was most enlightening. Throughout the whole process, Elizabeth was prompt, patient and helpful with Q & A. She is very organized and client oriented.

We are comfortable and confident Elizabeth has put together a complete and useful product that will serve us well. We are very happy with our selection of JLF to help us in this endeavor and highly recommend JLF as an excellent client oriented Trust attorney.

Estate planning isn’t an intimidating thing to do with Elizabeth on your team!

You don’t know what you don’t know, which is why you want to hire an experienced attorney…

Five Star Review

My husband and I went to Elizabeth to update our wills and establish a family trust. Although we are both attorneys (not estate or tax attorneys!) and could have cobbled together our own documents, Elizabeth alerted us to many issues we had not considered. You don’t know what you don’t know, which is why you want to hire an experienced attorney who can explain the legal and tax consequences, as well as the practical considerations of your estate decisions. Elizabeth listened to our desires and crafted will and trust documents that are tailored to our needs efficiently and competently. I highly recommend her.

Ann S.

… I found Elizabeth to be honest, personable, efficient, very responsive, diligent, and trustworthy.

Through my experience working with Elizabeth Johnson, I found Elizabeth to be honest, personable, efficient, very responsive, diligent, and trustworthy. She is a very warm person who you will immediately feel comfortable with. She is knowledgeable and very thorough. She will follow up and keep you informed on the process and status.

I would highly recommend Elizabeth Johnson for your Estate Planning needs.

She was able to close probate, get monies refunded to me by the prior attorney and from the trust.

Five Star Review

I’m giving two reviews: 1. My brother passed in 2010. I was referred to a probate attorney who did nothing. I hired another attorney who started charging me hourly and in the time he had the case only caused more dissent and distress among the heirs and prolonged the probate. I then met Elizabeth and asked her to take over. She was able to close probate, get monies refunded to me by the prior attorney and from the trust. 2. After all of the problems with my brother’s estate, I asked Elizabeth to prepare a trust and will. I had no idea what that involved. Very patient in explaining what it all meant and made it clear she will be there in the future if I have questions and need help. That I’m very happy is an understatement. Highly recommend.

Sharene R.

She handled everything, and really made sure I followed what I needed to do.

Five Star Review

All I can say over and over is SHE’S THE BEST!!!! She came to my house and really made thing go so smoothly!! She worried about me instead of the passing of my husband first.

She is kind, and not the usual stuffy attorney!!!!

She comes to your home, is pleasant, intelligent and sharp as a tack.

Five Star Review

Elizabeth is a pleasure to work with. She comes to your home, is pleasant, intelligent and sharp as a tack. While doing our trust she became peripherally involved in some legal action we were taking to protect my wife’s sister in Arizona from scammers. She reviewed the plan and said it was missing a key component to protect her home. We called the law firm in Arizona and they agreed that Elizabeth’s suggestion was not only excellent but that they were going to incorporate it into their future policy. I was sold.

I can’t think of anyone I’d rather have … to help navigate setting up and executing a trust.

Five Star Review

Elizabeth Johnson created a trust for my husband and I couple years ago, and I was so grateful she had because he passed away last year (Nov. 2017). She is not only a great attorney, she is absolutely delightful really and kind and caring. I can’t think of anyone I’d rather have there during this difficult time to help navigate setting up and executing a trust.

… highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and caring attorney.

Five Star Review

After years of procrastination and based on reviews we chose Elizabeth as our estate planning expert and were not disappointed. She led us through building a family trust, advanced health directives, wills and estate planning and was so knowledgeable, caring, and compassionate in her approach. All went smoothly and efficiently with her excellent communication skills. We were looking for someone to build a long term relationship and have found Elizabeth and are so happy. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and caring attorney. And for dog owners she carries dog biscuits so our two loved her arrival and treats. Thanks Elizabeth.

Elizabeth did an outstanding job re-stating my Dad’s Estate Plan …

Five Star Review

Elizabeth did an outstanding job re-stating my Dad’s Estate Plan, setting me up as the Power of Attorney and creating the Advanced Healthcare directive. I interviewed three other companies and chose Elizabeth.

She delivered “best in class” service as I expected. Compassionate, thorough and a very well put together binder and CD of all documents.

Steve L.

She also advised me to have my own Living Trust prepared, to best protect the inherited assets.

Five Star Review

Elizabeth helped me during a tumultuous time when I needed help the most. My father became ill and I had to use the Power of Attorney from the Living Trust Elizabeth prepared for him. I also had some concerns about a relative who had personal, and greedy, motives. I called Elizabeth about these concerns and she took immediate action. Unfortunately, soon after my father passed and I needed help managing his estate. Elizabeth helped in all areas and spoke with me through every step. Followed up on loose ends and went the extra mile. She also advised me to have my own Living Trust prepared, to best protect the inherited assets. She did a fantastic and thorough job! I am very pleased with her work. I found her to be very down to earth, knowledgeable, compassionate, and professional. I would recommend her to anyone that requires these services. We even had a house fire just a month after my father passed, and she reached out to help us on a personal level. I didn’t expect that, but it’s refreshing to know there are people out there who have a heart Thank you Elizabeth for your help and friendship, I will value it!

David K.

… relentlessly efficient and effective.

Five Star Review

Elizabeth has prepared comprehensive estate planning documents for both me and my mother and I would recommend her to anyone that hasn’t yet addressed their estate planning needs. Elizabeth insists that her clients fully understand their current financial situation, their options moving forward, and the ramifications of their potential action or inaction when it comes to their financial future and the future of their family. She is both caring and kind as well as relentlessly efficient and effective. She will explain concepts to you as many times as you need them explained in order to fully understand them. I cannot say enough positive things about Elizabeth’s commitment to her job and to the wellbeing of her clients. Thank you, Elizabeth!

Mattie

We worked with Elizabeth to develop an estate plan and trust and she was great to work with.

Five Star Review

We worked with Elizabeth to develop an estate plan and trust and she was great to work with. She took the time to explain everything clearly and was very flexible with her time. Having her meet us on the weekends at our home was very helpful. We highly recommend working with Elizabeth and are grateful for her help.

Charles Y.

I will recommend Elizabeth in a heartbeat to anyone who wants to get their living trust done …

Five Star Review

We just got our living estate trust done from Elizabeth and I cannot Thank her enough !

Firstly – she is flexible and can come over to your place ( even on weekends if needed). This was important for us as we have two very young kids.

Secondly, she is very knowledgeable and pro-active to get her stuff done quickly. She does not do it on time, she does it before her promised deadline and gives you enough time to look over important details.

Third is the signing and the notary is also flexible to come over and both of them have done this long enough to make this as efficient and quick. It was over before we knew it.

I will recommend Elizabeth in a heartbeat to anyone who wants to get their living trust done in the Tri-Valley/Danville/Walnut Creek area.

Vikas T.

Thoughtful and Thorough!

Five Star Review

I had a wonderful experience with Elizabeth as she guided me through the estate planning process. She spoke plainly and understandably, and was very sensitive to my perspective. I learned a great deal from Elizabeth throughout the process. She was very much in charge of the turnkey operation, handling all the details required to produce a professional and thorough final product. I highly recommend her, and will not hesitate to call on her should I need legal services in the future. On top of her professionalism and expertise, she is quite fun! She possesses a quick wit and has made the whole process fun.

Mike

Chuck Miller

Thank you sooo… much Elizabeth!

Five Star Review

Here’s what happened:
My husband died. We were together for 36 years. He was 61 years old. It was a fantastic marriage.
One day he was just fine, and the next day our world was turned upside down with doctors and hospitals. Exactly six months later he was gone.

Enter Elizabeth.
She did everything for me. The whole package. Everything is covered and organized. No probate. And I don’t have to worry about my daughter having to worry about going to court for anything regarding my estate during her grieving. Thanks to Elizabeth, everything is covered, organized, and should easily be managed. Seeing her in action, it’s good knowing she has our backs. She’s funny and caring, which helped with the whole process. I was not looking forward to even dealing with this. She took control, made sure I got what I required. She has a big heart. She’s powerful, so look out. I’m very, very happy.

Thank you sooo… much Elizabeth!

At the eleventh hour of a commercial real estate transaction, I suddenly and very urgently needed to have a new trust created.  Elizabeth came to the rescue despite it being a weekend and did a phenomenal and amazingly thorough job in the incredibly short time frame available.  Her professionalism and expertise is unparalleled, and she is invariably a true pleasure with which to work.

… she explained what we needed and provided those needs in an efficient and concerned manner …

Five Star Review

My husband and I were fortunate to meet with Elizabeth Johnson to bring our estate planning up to date and in accordance with the new laws. Not only was she knowledgeable in all aspects of the law, she explained what we needed and provided those needs in an efficient and concerned manner. Estate planning is a complex area of the law and not easily understood.  However, Elizabeth Johnson provided us with the explanations needed and the tools to make intelligent decisions.  She always had our best interests at heart, for which we will be forever grateful. You cannot go wrong with Elizabeth! She is the very best!!!!!!!!!

Five Star Review

After my 100 year old Aunt’s death recently, I was referred to Elizabeth by a friend in real estate for help in administering my Aunt’s living trust. To my great delight, Elizabeth was just what I needed to make my way through the maze of documents, paperwork and assorted tasks. She was extremely versed in trust matters, very organized and took time to explain and was always available for questions or to solve any problems. Elizabeth gets high marks and I would gladly recommend her to anyone needing a skilled, competent and caring lawyer.

Kathleen L.

… highly recommend Elizabeth’s work for anyone needing assistance in the Estate Planning Law arena …

Elizabeth Johnson worked with us to create our Estate Plan and Advanced Healthcare Directive. She was efficient with her time, yet we felt that all angles were explored and addressed. She has clearly been practicing in this field for an extended period of time, given her knowledge and expertise with this subject matter. We are convinced that all potential gaps have been covered, given this knowledge and experience. As a few others have already noted, we are also aware of Elizabeth’s philanthropic work in the community. Simply, we highly recommend Elizabeth’s work for anyone needing assistance in the Estate Planning Law arena!

John C.

Elizabeth helped to make sure everything was covered , from properties, investments and additional savings.

Five Star Review

Working with Elizabeth has been an eye opening experience. I never gave thought to what would happen to my estate. My husband and I do not have children, we consider ourselves to be savvy educated people and didn’t realize the problems we could potentially cause for those that would stand to inherit from our estate when the time comes. Elizabeth helped to make sure everything was covered , from properties, investments and additional savings.

I would not hesitate to strongly recommend and urge all to handle their affairs. Elizabeth has given us a sense of security that I did not realize was missing.

We now know that those that matter to us the most ,will not be burdened with legalities simply due to the fact that we were procrastinating and not taking the time to handle some of the most important aspects of our lives.
You owe this to your loved ones!

Scott P.

Elizabeth is a very professional lawyer, she was available for any question’s we had.

Elizabeth is a very professional lawyer, she was available for any question’s we had. She came to our house collected our information and prepared our trust. She rescheduled an appointment, came to our house again and educated us on all the information we gave her and how it would affect our future.

Five Star Review

Elizabeth Johnson has been a thorough and diligent attorney who has capably generated our estate documents. She undertakes to understand the specific family situations and wishes, researches and resolves questionable issues, and prepares a final, bound, document set that prepares the whole family for the unknowable future.

… highly efficient but is honest, quick and has a delightful sense of humor.

Five Star Review

Elizabeth Johnson is not only highly efficient but is honest, quick and has a delightful sense of humor. After hiring her to handle my mother’s final estate and the dizzying details that my job as Executor demanded, and then set up a Special Needs Trust for my nephew, she offered to take a look at our Family Trust which had been set up almost 20 years ago by our financial advisor. She pointed out many aspects that were either not in our interest or legally had changed over time. She worked with us at length to clearly explain each section and made sure we fully understood everything we signed. What blew me away is the additional parts besides the typical Living Trust ( with Instructions to Trustee and Certification of Trust), Pour-Over Will, Advance Directives ( with HIPPA Authorizations), Power of Attorney-Assets, there is a Final Arrangements ( with Death Certificate info), Special Instructions to the successor Trustee, Password List for accessing online accounts, Insurance Policies, Property Agreements, Business Agreements, current Financial Assets ( with beneficiary designation), liabilities, Personal and Family History and finally the whole shebang on a Flashdrive! We can now die knowing that our successor Trustee has everything they need in one place! What a gift to that person at a time when you want them to stress free. Elizabeth also offers to make herself available to help the successor if needed. Not only all that – Elizabeth has heart and I now include her as a friend. DO NOT HESITATE TO ENGAGE HER SERVICES – you will not regret it.

Elizabeth was very thorough in her approach to creating our trust documents. She took the time to completely understand what is important to us regarding our estate and guardianship wishes, and she met with us on our schedule, and at our house. She is a true professional.

Relying on Elizabeth Johnson’s expertise and services for the past 19 years has made me a firm believer that with her knowledge of the law, and persistence in finding out the facts, she has represented me to the fullest!
…Elizabeth has always been very easy to talk to and is very thorough in making sure you understand what is “going on” before moving on to the next step… She has always been “available” for questions, or just to “lend an ear”…She takes pride with what she does and will do what is necessary to make sure details of a case have been brought forth and heard, so the law will be executed fairly…
…Elizabeth Johnson has served me in both business and family needs, and will continue to do so if her services are needed in the future!
…I can proudly say she serves as MY attorney!

Consistently Excellent Legal Counsel

Five Star Review

I have used Elizabeth for over 18 years in various situations including estate planning and employment related issues. She has consistently provided very wise, appropriate and knowledgeable council in areas of her expertise or guided me to others with the appropriate knowledge. I have recommended her to various friends, relatives and associates. She provides legal advice and representation with compassion and understanding well beyond the average counselor. She earns and deserves my business.

Five Star Review

I have known Elizabeth for 30+ years and she has advised me through some difficult times with integrity, professionalism, and compassion. She recently helped me with an advance health care directive. Her knowledge and experience helped me get through the process quickly and make the decisions I needed to make to protect myself and my family. If you are looking for an experienced, professional attorney who knows her stuff but also has a very compassionate and human side, Elizabeth is the attorney for you. She is passionate about helping other people and caring for other people. I would definitely recommend her!

Five Star Review

Elizabeth walked us through the emotional process of setting up a will and other necessary documents, providing protection for our child for the future. She prepared all the documents needed and set them all up to be easily manageable for the future. Without her, we still would not have gone through this process.

estate planning beginning to now

Five Star Review

Elizabeth brought us thru the estate planning process from beginning to completion. she competently answered our every question, offered us viable options and alternatives. she was flexible with appointments, being available nights or weekends since we both work full-time.
Her presentation of the materials was professional and timely, following up when she hadn’t heard back from us. She easily communicates thru all channels (in person, voice and email).
We are very pleased with the final product and know she will be available to us as updates are required.

Easy to work with, friendly and honest

Five Star Review

Elizabeth did an excellent job of explaining the Estate Planning and Power of Attorney process and all the available options to me. Her friendly demeanor, objectivity, attention to detail and ability to translate and break down complicated legal terms made her easy to work with. I can’t recommend her enough or honestly think of anyone else I’d rather have representing my interests.

We went from being anxious, unknowledgeable clients, to having our wills and trust done in what we believe are record time.
Ms. Johnson knew all the questions to ask to help us along the way, and taught us so much. She provided thorough timely responses to our questions, kept in constant communication with us, understood our need to make changes and provided an overall completely professional service.
We are thrilled and feel much more comfortable knowing we have taken care of our legal responsibilities for our family.

Someone to trust…

Five Star Review

Eliz. has been a friend for many years. I hadn’t needed a lawyer and she never pushed. But when I said I needed help she was there and took care of everything while educating me. She helped me see how important what I needed to do was. And what would happen if I hadn’t have taken care of the issue. I have also suggested her to others who have become clients and they were thrilled with all aspects of her work.

Five Star Review

In my professional career as a CEO I have worked with many many lawyers. None match the competence,compassion, and communication skills of Elizabeth. She assisted me and my wife in redrafting Wills, Trusts, Advance Directives and related documents.Outstanding ability to make complex legal matters understandable. Outstanding ability to listen to the client and craft instruments specific to our desires and needs rather than use legal boilerplate.

Kind, Caring, Knowledgeable and Professional. The only choice for my family.

Five Star Review

Ms. Johnson is not just an excellent attorney, she is a great person as well. She came highly recommended from a friend in another field and she is everything I needed. She answered all my questions about preparing for my death and posed many thought provoking questions of her own. Her professionalism and candor is highly appreciated. She considered the difficulties in my case and we worked to find agreeable solutions. I have recommended her to a my friends because her compassion is very important when considering final arrangements. I know that I am now legally safe and taken care of in a way I could not have handled on my own. Her willingness to listen and understand the uniqueness of my situation ( I have a rescue dog sanctuary as well as show dogs) made the entire process much easier. I cannot say enough good things about her character and willingness to help me when I really needed her.

Efficient, Knowledgeable, Comprehensive

Five Star Review

Elizabeth is great to work with. She kept us well informed every step of the way, and she took it upon herself to keep us educated about the process and to keep everything moving along. I was impressed with her updates and level of communication. She is very thorough and comprehensive. I know my money was well spent considering how fast she completed our trust, and how completely she covered every issue. I heartily recommend working with her. She prides herself on developing an ongoing relationship, not just a fee for service attorney.

Elizabeth is the best of the best

Five Star Review

We used Elizabeth to review our estate plans with us and redo a whole packet that consisted of a Will, Durable Power of Attorney, Advanced Healthcare Directives, Revocable trust and all related materials. Not only is she an extremely knowledgeable subject matter expert, she explains things in a way that makes it easy for folks like us to understand. I would highly recommend Elizabeth and will continue to use her myself in the future.

Elizabeth helped me and my spouse with our estate planning in the most professional, timely, knowledgable and friendly way possible. Even though this was done as pro bono work we never had any inkling that she was treating us as anything other than valued clients. She kept us on schedule, explained the process and provided a complete and thorough product we felt very good about. I would recommend Elizabeth without hesitation.

Linda

The best experience ever

Five Star Review

My husband and I wanted to re-write our entire Trust as it was entirely out of date. All I could remember was my experience the first time several years ago and I kept putting it off. We finally had to get it done and had the best experience ever with Elizabeth. She explained everything thoroughly and gave visual graphics. Each step was laid out in a manner that I could understand. All possible scenarios were discussed with us, helping us to make decisions. At the end we were given a concise, well organized portfolio binder, that was set up for us to easily update as time goes by. We not only feel confident that our assets have been protected per our wishes, we also know our successor Trustee’s are protected and that they will have her to guide them when the time comes.
We recommend Eliz C A Johnson.

Tireless, Totally Talented Trust Advisor

Five Star Review

It has been said that asking for help from a lawyer can be equated to tooth extraction minus the novacaine.
Most fortunately, our experience with Elizabeth Johnson of Johnson Estate Planning has been quite the opposite. Ms Johnson listened to our needs and concerns, helped us evaluate our situation, and, at all times, was warm, knowledgeable, and the consummate professional. We are grateful for her expertise in handling every legal situation for which we have needed her. Most recently, she has updated and provided us with a comprehensive restatement of the “A——n Family Trust” which originated in 1998. Both the depth of her legal judgment and the scope of her patience were put to full use on our behalf.

Elizabeth assisted us with our estate planning and our experience was extremely positive. We found Elizabeth both knowledgeable and professional in all areas of the planning process. She was insightful in her suggestions for our needs and innovative in her ideas for what would be the best plan for us. She keeps us posted with tax and law updates that may effect us adversely. We look forward to continuing to receive her advice for many years in the future.
