Robert Arabian is one of the best Trust attorneys in LA. He assisted our family with a Trust restatement. The previous attorney that initially set up our trust, did a terrible job. There were so many gaps. In reviewing the Trust, Robert made us aware of some additional holes that could have really caused problems but he cleaned it up with a much better restatement. Robert is smart, sharp, experienced and has the patience, sense of humor and knowledge to explain things in detail and simple terms. He explained the "how, why, and ifs" in different ways so we could fully understand all options and clauses. We are extremely happy with the legal services he provided and fully recommend him and will refer!

Where do I start? AMAZING that’s where! This law firm is extremely professional, responsive and experts in their field. They do everything estate planning related. Well, we had a big problem. My mother died and all of their bank accounts, two houses and stock were never registered in the name of the trust. My dad could not get any of it without paying thousands of dollars to California (probate). We were referred to Gifford, Dearing and Abernathy from a friend who used them in the past. Robert Arabian handled our case and he immediately said there is a loophole that would allow us to avoid paying probate and enter the property in the trust after the fact. Long story short, he filed the motion with the court and it was granted! Saving my father time, money and emotional distress. Their pricing was also very reasonable. Both Robert and Michelle were fantastic and we will forever be grateful for their help.

If you're confused, lost or unsure of where to go when looking to have someone prepare your living will/trust, look no further. Having a trust completed is a big deal and we wanted to work with an established firm that knew this area of law inside and out. Lucky for us, we found Robert Arabian. Robert and the team at Gifford, Dearing & Abernathy were absolutely amazing. Robert took the time to explain EVERYTHING in complete detail. He wasn't pompous or arrogant (like some attorneys...no offense). He was kind, courteous, relatable and ALWAYS available. He gave us peace of mind in knowing that our estate was completely protected. He stuck by us through the entire process and even followed up after we were done to make sure we didn't need anything else. We liked him so much that we have since referred him to 4 other families that are looking to complete their living trusts. If you want peace of mind in knowing your trust is done correctly by someone who will be by your side, see Robert.
