Susan is definitely a 5 star Probate/Elder Abuse attorney! I was at a very low point in life when I met Susan. Shortly after the death of my aunt, who raised me, I served with a Trust naming a shady realtor and undocumented handy man as Trustees to my aunt’s Trust. The only asset in the Trust, set up by the Trustees, was my childhood home in which I resided when my aunt died. Shortly after being served with the Trust, the Trustee's served me with the Notice to Terminate Tenancy. My first probate attorney blew the deadline to contest the Trust. I was referred to Susan by a friend. From the start, Susan was compassionate and direct. Susan filed a civil action on my behalf and helped me mediate the matter successfully. Susan made sure the Deed was transferred to me. Thanks to Susan I was able to keep my home! I highly recommend Susan for your Probate needs!!

Susan Geffen was a referral from another attorney to represent us in a Trust matter in Orange County California. She oversaw the case with a great deal of professionalism, compassion, and dedication.

I would highly recommend her to all.

Susan was very responsive and provided great service. She answered our questions clearly and with patience. We were in good hands.

Susan helped me take control of helping my brother through a conservatorship. After a grueling trial, I felt a sense of relief. Susan made me feel (and my spouse) like everything was going to be o.k. and it was. Rick G., Anaheim

My husband, William Gregory, and I employed Susan to file a conservatorship for my sister-in-law who has Alzheimer’s. In a complicated case involving her Trust, Susan answered our many questions and told us our options, all without our ever having to go to her office since we live in north LA County. She told us what she could do and then did it. She is trustworthy and an expert in elder care issues. The legal Conservator Susan referred us to is taking excellent, compassionate care of my husband’s sister and we now have peace of mind. Thank you, Susan Geffen!
