Yes, I can be a bit dramatic, but let me say it again, WoW! I liked his picture and "ready for a courtroom showdown" so gave him a cold call. He was the most gracious, well mannered attorney I've spoken to. I'm a Paralegal and have a pending probate case so that says a lot! Aside from his excellent manner and professionalism, the guy knows his stuff. I have been through five (thought it was only 3:) probate attorneys for the last 9 years and Mr. Hankin gave me information that was pivotal to the success of my case; information that I should have already been told. I know, where was he 9 years ago! Let me tell you, he would have been my attorney and this case would have come to a conclusion years ago. Thank you again Mr. Hankin, your kindness put my trust back in humanity. ~A

Needing help with probate court and how to best deal with our trust litigation matter at hand, I was referred to Ted Hankin. We had a family dispute after the passing of my father and his trust, and Ted helped us save a considerable amount of money by taking the right steps. He will answer your questions along the way and keeps you informed of the process.

I recently posted a review of this attorney but my review may have been premature, as we were not yet finished completing our exchanges. Since my earlier review Mr. Hankin wrote to me again. He shed tremendous light on the one pressing question that baffled me, and he did so in a professional manner. My initial aim was to utilize his services in the Appellate Courts, but it appears my case lacks the "teeth" for a successful appeal. If that were not my unfortunate predicament I'd most assuredly hire Mr. Hankin. Sometimes the devil is in the details. He's a details oriented attorney who takes the time to explain matters to his clients and prospective clients. I can't speak to other areas of his law practice, but for anything pertaining to California Trusts or Probate matters he's the "go-to" attorney!

Mr. Hankin has been our general Counsel since our firm was formed. He has continually performed in a professional and dedicated manor to assist in our legal matters. Including, but not limited to contract assistance, litigation counsel, and corporate welfare.

Ted Hankin has done outstanding work for our foundation - Kasem Cares based out of California. With his help and excellent writing skills and attention to detail, he helped us get our 501(c) 3 non-profit approved in only two months! He takes the time to explain legal jargon and terms on a level that is easy to understand. His experience and professional nature comes through when working with him. I recommend his services. - Kerri

I was referred to Mr. Hankin by a family law attorney friend. I immediately felt confident with Mr. Hankin's experience & knowledge for my unique case. Mr. Hankin always responded promptly to my concerns & inquiries. He always kept me informed & current on the status of my case. He collaborated with co-admin counsel, tax attorney, estate attorney, etc. during the course of my case. He gave me advise & guidance that was always in my best interest. And he went "above & beyond" numerous times during the duration of my case, leading to a successful outcome. Mr. Hankin is the consummate professional and I would definitely highly recommend him.

Ted has been very helpful with my case. He is well versed in business law, trust and probate and other relevant law matters that my case has required. What I have liked most about Ted is that he takes the time to explain to you in layman's terms details and relevant goings about my case and its process. He keeps you in the loop and makes you feel like he really cares about the outcome. You are not just another statistic to him. I also see a difference (compared to prior attorneys) in his many years of experience as an attorney and CPA. I highly recommend Ted for helping me with what could be considered a difficult case. His high ethics for his profession are second to none. The attorney you choose, does make a difference. I am happy he's been on my side!

I have used Ted for Business and personal for over 25 years now. His logician approach always kept me out of trouble and his ability to navigate any issues that came by my path kept me successful in all my business. There are attorneys that are deal makers and some that are deal breakers Ted has always focused on the outcome, a deal resolution of issues and have been a great asset for me in my business and personal life to achieve results. I am recommending Ted with all my heart for his integrity, processed thinking, problem resolution and knowledge. Many people know the law but how to use it to achieve the best outcome is the artistic part of a great attorney and Ted is certainly a master at that!!

In our case we asked Ted Hankin to step in and represent us in a probate case best put as one being well down the legal malfeasance well. An absolutely amazing turn around was the result. As we saw it, Ted has a broad palette of legal skills (including having a CPA) that he employs in a systems engineering manner. That is, Ted knows the total environment of his cases. In ours, within a month, Ted advised our revised path through the legal forest, a path that brought success. It seems Ted knew every turn, every tree, every alternative and its consequences along that path. And this is a major attribute of Ted – so did we! Nothing hidden. Ted often said, ‘I want you to know the total environment of your case and every item that could impact it and what we will do to get through this.’ Available 24 hours a day, Ted is a skilled attorney with a sense of humor who is always realistic with the client and the case. An outstanding example of his attorney profession.
