Horrible experience with attorney Larry Ajalat. After having almost all our money stolen by former trustee, Upper Street Marketing CEO and de-licensed financial advisor John D. Quinn, we sought to have John removed from the trust. Larry told us it would be a very simple process and all we had to do was send a letter to him and assign a new trustee. He did not honestly evaluate our case and failed to inform us that we did not have sufficient funds for fiduciary expenses and this would be a much more complicated process than writing a letter. When it became evident that we could not afford to assign a new trustee and this was a hopeless situation and we were stuck with this con-man of a trustee who would eventually take our house and the remaining cash in our bank accounts, Larry terminated his services and kept the money we paid him. He claimed it would be "malpractice" to have been honest and told us in the beginning that our case was hopeless. Our experience with this attorney has only compounded the devastation we have experienced with the financial abuse by the trustee. I will also add that Larry did not do anything on my behalf and I made all phone calls, drafted all documents and did all research. After he terminated services, he did make a false APS report--though not against John.

Thank you for the opportunity to address this.<br><br>It did appear that Shoko Block was severely victimized by her appointed trustee long ago and our assistance was sought to change that. Otherwise, most of what is stated above is misrepresented. In fact, this review was likely not even written by Shoko, but by a family member who (rather deceitfully) claimed to be Shoko in numerous communications with this office and others.<br><br>In any event, as said above, help was sought for a bad situation, and when we tried to help -- including working with trusted agents of theirs, working with the local Regional Center, assisting with reports to proper civil authorities, and seeking out and obtaining the opinions of numerous independent private fiduciaries -- we were unfortunately unable to effectuate any change. Although this was due to factors far out of our control, the client was angry that we didn't foresee this result, and as she said above, we should have told them at the beginning that it was "hopeless" and shouldn't have even tried to help. We do not operate that way – they sought help, and we tried fervently to provide it - we did not believe the situation was "hopeless" at all and attempted several routes to address it. However, we cannot know going into a matter what will happen and we can never guarantee any particular result. We are only sorry her situation was what it was and wish she would have sought help long before it got to the point it was at.<br><br>Nevertheless, we still wish the best for Shoko and hope her agents properly fulfill their fiduciary obligations toward her.
I can't say enough good things about Larry! He's helped me with several estate planning matters over the years, and each time he's gone above and beyond. He's not only knowledgeable and thorough, but he genuinely cares about his clients. He takes the time to explain everything clearly. If you're looking for someone to help with estate planning, I highly recommend Larry and his team – you won't be disappointed!

I cannot recommend Larry highly enough for his exceptional work in creating our estate trust! From start to finish, Larry was an absolute pleasure to work with.

Larry came highly recommended and now we know why! He is very thorough, kind, professional and patient. He made the process easy and asked question we never even thought about asking. He went over everything with us regarding our trust, estate, directives, businesses, investments, llc options, insurance information, setting up legacy contacts and preserving our document. We felt so comfortable that our adult children will be utilizing his services. Thank you Larry.

Awww… you’re wonderful, thank you Traci. You guys were great… we’ll talk soon!
Larry is phenomenal to work with. He's dedicated to his clients and incredibly communicative. He goes above and beyond, explains everything in the process, and always welcomes and promptly answers questions.
Honestly, working with Larry feels like working with family. His attention to detail and friendly attitude really put me at ease during a difficult time. Larry helped me navigate the intricacies of being the Trustee of a deceased relative's Trust and created a family Trust for my wife and me.
I've hired estate attorneys in the past, and no one compares to Larry. Like I said, he treats you like family. I highly recommend him.

Working with Larry was a great experience. He was extremely thorough and took the time to explain everything to us in setting up our trust. Highly recommended.
We couldn't be happier with our decision to go with LAWRENCE A. AJALAT| AJALAT & AJALAT, LLP (AKA Larry) to complete our Living Trust. I was referred to Larry by my first cousin who is an attorney. We had procrastinated on setting up our living trust. Some of the main reasons were, not knowing who to use and trust. The cost that attorneys and companies were charging. The amount of time and paperwork to complete the trust. All that went away with one call to Ajalat & Ajalat. Larry was knowledgeable, professional, affordable and efficient. Also a very good person. I could not recommend Larry enough!
Larry Ajalat of Ajalat & Ajalat At Law has been great to work with in setting up our estate plan. We had put this off for too long and were very pleased that Larry made the whole process very uncomplicated. There were more issues that needed to be addressed than we had even thought about, and Larry brought these to our attention in a manner that was very comfortable and simple to understand. Larry prepared the documents which were tailored to our needs and took the time to explain the details thoroughly. Larry was very patient with our numerous questions and was very easy to work with. I highly recommend Ajalat & Ajalat At Law to anyone who needs estate planning advice
I’m very happy with Larry Ajalat. He really took the time to understand my situation. He set up my living trust perfectly. Best he was responsive to questions and kept me informed throughout the process. A big thank you to Larry
