They were patient and explained our options clearly so that we could make informed decision what was best for our needs. Worked around our time frame and came to us, as our need warranted. To sum our experience up…they were awesome!

I'm very happy I chose Mr. Rubalcava to set up my trust. What I thought was going to be an overwhelming experience was just the opposite. Because he is so knowledgeable, he was able to explain clearly and in a way that was easy to understand. I appreciated his patience and professionalism.

Very disappointed in this attorney. Went to him 5 years ago for a will. He recommended. I also do a transfer of death deed. Five years later I get a letter from the Assessor’s office that the deed needed to be corrected as he had crossed a sentence out which is not allowed. Called this attorney. He said he was out of town and would call me in a few days. Never received a phone call even after I called and texted him several times. What kind of person would not return phone calls to fix a mistake he made. Had to hire a new attorney to rescind that deed. My new attorney told me a transfer of trust deed is ill advised. He also put a secondary beneficiary which is not the correct thing to do as they would own the property as tenants in common. I plan on filing a complaint against him. UPDATE: Shortly after posting my one star review, I was contacted my this attorney. He apologized and stated that he had surgery and thought his office had contacted me. He refunded me the entire amount that I had to pay the new attorney.

Response from owner

We are happy that you were able to get things taken care of and appreciate your understanding.<br><br>For the sake of people reading the review, I think it is important to mention that we also recommended that you also create a trust instead of a will, and even drafted a trust for you. <br><br>Your preference at the time was only a will and given there was real estate involved, the next best option was to create the transfer on death deed to accompany the will. <br><br>The new attorney drafted a living trust for you, (at a significantly greater cost than the will), which we paid for entirely to show we care. <br><br>We wish you the best.

“I am so glad you found him!!” said my 96 year old mother said after Mr Rubalcava created her trust. David was kind, knowledgeable, professional and answered all of our questions using easy to understand language. He has also been invaluable for subsequent changes as well. Additionally, he charges a reasonable fee, especially considering the quality of his work.

After deciding to have our Trust done & contacting several attorneys, my husband & I found David to be by far the most responsive. David explained everything clearly to us, & continued to do so throughout the process of writing our Trust. He was always patient, professional, & kind regarding our questions & requests for changes. We highly recommend David Rubalcava to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable Trust attorney.

Mr. Rubalcava went above and beyond to help our family. He was professional and extremely patient with our 87-year-old mother. He took his time and was very thorough as we kept throwing new issues at him and having him make changes to what he was already working on. I highly recommend his services

David was absolutely outstanding in assisting my father and me with setting up our Trust. His professionalism, attention to detail, and prompt response made the entire process seamless. David congenitally answered all our questions and we had had a lot. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, reliable, and cares about his clients, David is the best:-)

After multiple attempts to reach out, there has been a lack of response to calls and texts. I'm uncertain if this may be related to the concerns surrounding the will he wrote for my father, which lacked clarity and thoroughness. I am now forced to go through probate if I don’t want lose a house that my father left. Who has the time and money for probate? I’d select a better attorney- one that would highlight the importance of writing a clear and concise will and living trust.

Response from owner

Hello Stephanie, <br><br>I am so sorry to hear about this. We tried to reach out to you in February but have not heard back. Please contact us. There should not be a reason for the estate to go through probate as all properties were titled in the trust correctly. Please call us and we will see what needs to be done.

My family and I are blown away by our experience working with David and his team. David was communicative, kind, professional, and promptly answered all our questions and concerns and went above and beyond with his team to help us with our time sensitive circumstances. I will be recommending David’s Trust services to all friends and family and using him again in the future. Thank you, David, for your excellent work.

My family worked with David to help prepare a will and trust. He clearly and concisely explained the process and the rationale for each document we needed, walked us through everything then delivered a well-organized final product. It was a great experience, highly recommended!

I was looking for someone to update my trust I had made several years ago. I found David online and he had several good reviews so I decided to take a chance. I am so happy I did! I found David to be very professional and knowledgeable. He answered all my questions and gave me some good advice/options to include in the trust pertaining to my situation. He’s genuine, honest and a very nice person. The end result was an extremely more in depth and professional trust than I had received years ago. Would definitely recommend!
