Law Office of David W Foley – California Living Trusts

Few years ago they did my living trust, and the process went well. Recently we tried to do another trust for my mother and it did NOT go well. If, and that’s is a BIG IF, they answer the phone then you get the privilege of being sent to voice mail. After leaving multiple messages we would get a call back over a week later. REALLY!!! is that how you run a business now? My advice is to hire more people. After reaching a live person she was rude and didn’t want to truly understand the problem. I see some 5 stars, so it must be me. Good Luck.

Wow, I own one small house. (but it’s in a nice area!) It’s worth a lot to me, but to pay big money to a trust lawyer seemed ridiculous. Anything else I have has been dedicated to beneficiaries. I wanted a trust that when I died the house would not go into probate. I went to an online lawyers referral site, and called a few attorneys. $ 1300 – was the bottom line price. That seemed crazy to me, as what I needed was akin to an oil change for a mechanic. A lawyer should be able to do this easily, probably with some template – and plug the information in, notarize, and call it a day. I could do a trust myself, but didn’t trust that I wouldn’t mess something up.
Thanks to Unilocal reviewers, I found David Foley. $ 495 and a county recording fee to be expected. Diane (the receptionist and notary) was great, and calls were returned and it worked out just perfectly. The attorney was great too, explained everything, took about 1 hour. The office was professional and the price right. Done deal. Highly recommend. I have already referred to several friends.

David Foley and his associates just provided my wife and I a «Restated Trust» to update our trust that we created almost 25 years ago. His staff and associate attorneys are very knowledgeable, efficient and personable. I highly recommend this office for anyone in need of a Living Trust, his prices ($ 495.) are probably the most reasonable in all of San Diego. Very little Prep Work to get things started and in less than one hour at the office to explain and go over the terms of the Trust, you sign and Notarize the Trust, and Voila! You are done and have a Living Trust in hand when you leave! Couldn’t be easier. Centrally located in Mission Valley next to the Stadium, ample parking makes it an easy choice for My Choice of Best Living Trust Attorney in San Diego!

Quick, good customer service, very happy with their service thus far. $ 495 for a living trust. Worked with us on updating an existing one. Highly recommend.

I have had my trust, my aunt’s trust, my father in law’s trust and my brothers will and trust through this office. David and Erin have always been very responsive and helpful. After my aunt passed away they made the transition as easy as possible.

We needed to redo our trust but didn’t want to pay an arm and a leg.
Finally a small local law firm that chooses not to capitalize on a simple document.
Most of the correspondences were via email and phone which is fine as we prefer not to have multiple visits to any office. We initially filled out a simple form and had a conversation with Erin who was super pleasant and answered all our questions.
We did play a little phone tag leaving messages vs. someone always answering the phone but our calls were generally returned within 48hrs. (*think lower cost*)
They sent us a draft via email to confirm all our info. We then set an appointment to sign. The office was a little confusing to find but it was a nice simple office and our wait time was minimal.
We met with David Foley who was personable and NOT pretentious or snooty. He answered all our questions and we could tell he genuinely cared about our specific concerns.
We were in and out in less than an hour with a solid trust in effect right after we signed (one real estate property transferred into the trust).
Overall, I think this was a super simple transaction and the price is very right.
In my opinion, 90% of trusts are probably a document that attorneys just paste in a different name and add a handful of notarization stamps and you’re done. It’s nice to see a law firm a little more on our side so to speak.
