Max is thorough and easy to work with. He's created a living trust for me as well as helping make other arrangements. Would recommend highly.

I’ve always had nothing but the best experience in working with Max Alavi in creating my trust and an amendment, along with follow-up and any questions that I’ve had years to follow.

He is always so responsive, and easy to get a hold of, very pleasant and willing to assist. Seriously, the best experience that I have ever had in working with a lawyer.

You need a trust created, or revised, work with Mr. Alavi, he is truly the best. His office staff is great as well. Always very professional and responsive.

We are so happy we found Max Alavi ! We were very pleased with how professional, knowledgeable, and helpful he was. Having our living trust drawn up by Max and his staff was a most pleasant and stress-free experience. Highly recommend !

If you want to consistently be told, "Well this gets expensive" and asked, "do you have means?" then hire this lawyer. He is emotionally insensitive to what people are going through during the bereavement process. He did not offer any advice or strategy for how to approach my trust issues. He was always unavailable, not responsive to emails. He charged a fortune to remind me about money, ignore me, and not do anything. I replaced his services after only a month. Why have a lawyer who is going to treat you that way?

Our estate planning experience with Max Alavi was exceptional! He is knowledgeable, patient, respectful and reasonably priced. He communicated clearly throughout our process and did everything we expected of him. He is very good at explaining complicated legal wording in simple terms, which made us feel confident that we understood what we were doing. I would highly recommend Max to anyone.

When I first talk to Mr. Alavi he sounded like a friendly person, my wife and I made an appointment to see him and it turned out the man is very down to earth, thru the event I was not and still not familiar with documents but Mr. Alavi walked us thru the process. Definitely recommend friends and relatives to his service, a wonderful experience with a nice, warm and kind person.

My husband and I found Max on Google search and we are glad we had contracted Max to do our trust. We are truly appreciate Max's assistance with setting up our trust. Unlike some other attorney which most seem "in hurry"; he took the time to explain the different types of trust and provided guidance on what type of trust to choose that's best for us. Highly recommended!

Max Alavi and his staff were awesome. Very professional and easy going. Made the entire experience of getting a Will and Trust easy and understandable. Any time we had questions, he was easy to reach, very flexible and made the process easy. On thing we noticed, was that when we showed up for our appt, we were his center of attention, no distractions, We were made to feel special, not just another number.
I had a unique situation, and Max did nothing but try to make everything right for us. He kept saying " whatever it takes to make you happy". That went along way for me and my family.
For a single income family, his rates were fair, and we highly recommend him.
Thank You Max, Ted & Becki, Huntington Beach

SUPERB TOP TIER LEGAL EXPERTISE. MAX ALAVI CUTS TO THE CORE OF A MATTER WITH A KEEN LEGAL MIND AND DISCERNS WHAT IS REQUIRED UNDER LAW OF THE CLIENT IN THEIR POSITION AND WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION FOR THE CLIENT TO TAKE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE FIRM IS RETAINED OR IS NOT RETAINED. YOU WANT THIS GUY IF YOU NEED HELP.

I wanted to set up a living trust for years, but didn't do anything. I finally decided to get it done this year and searched on internet for estate lawyer, I saw Mr. Alavi has high rating plus he charges a low flat fee, and wanted to give a try.

I am so glad I used Mr. Alavi's services. Not only because he is very experienced in this field, he is also professional, patient and devoted to his customers. He even responded to my email during weekend and at night. The instructions Mr. Alavi provided for notarizing documents and funding the trust is also clear, detailed and easy to follow.

Strongly recommend Mr. Alavi for estate planning.

Mr Alavi came highly recommended by my daughter and her family and I have to say that our experience with him was everything we expected and more. The entire process of creating a trust was finished with great ease and we are very happy with the end result. I would highly recommend him and his firm.

We used Max Alavi for our Trust planning and preparation. The process was incredibly simple, and the software he uses for the visual planning portion is awesome. He and his staff communicated with us regularly and kept us on track for completing our trust in a timely manner. I highly recommend Max for your estate planning and trust preparation.We have a very nicely organized document that we hope not to use for a very long time.

Max is a sensitive and intelligent person. He gave careful thought to my case and I appreciated that. My issue was not an easy one so if you have concerns that you feel uncomfortable about, he will put you at ease.

Very professional service. Max was wonderful! He answered all of our ridiculous questions as my husband and I hadn't ever thought of having a trust and had no idea what we were doing. It was a very simple process, and his office worked with us to schedule appointments with our crazy schedule. With our growing family it's great to know that our children will be protected if something happened to me and my husband, and we can thank Max for that feeling of protection!

We were very pleased with the personal attention that Max and his staff gave us. The Visual Estate Planning for our living trust made things very easy to review and overall much easier than I imagined it would be. I would highly recommend Max to anyone considering doing a living trust for their family.

If you think writing your name and wishes on a piece of paper is the right route for your estate plan, then you have to call Max. We were advised that this would be an acceptable route, however, Max informed us that we are still likely to have to go through probate, which could cost 5-10X as much as having Max take care of everything for us. He had a flat rate, which was great! It was nice to know exactly how much everything was going to be. Also, he provided a flow chart that easily explained how the trust would work so that it wasn't totally in legal jargon. Thanks Max for making things so easy!
