We searched for good trust attorneys for quite some time before someone recommended Jenkins and Jenkins. Michael helped us establish our living trust, health directives, wills, and power of attorney. He made the process very smooth, explaining the general process, and taking the time to understand our wishes. He clearly explained our options along with benefits and drawbacks for each option. Our trust documents reflect exactly our wishes and Michael helped us make all educated decisions. The process was much faster than what other trust attorneys would take. Michael was very responsive and patient, taking all the time needed to clarify every point. Without hesitation, we recommend their office to anyone looking for estate planning attorney.

Jenkins and Jenkins, Estate Planning Attorneys, just completed a trust for my parents and I have to say it was a great experience. I know this is an anomaly since we don’t usually hear great experience used in a sentence when dealing with an attorney but let me assure you it is true in my case. Michael Jenkins is a very knowledgeable and a compassionate attorney. He spent over an hour with my family during the free consultation via Zoom to understand our needs in order to come up with a strategy to best structure the trust to accomplish our desire. Michael was patience and allowed us the time and the opportunity to ask all of our questions. We did not feel rushed with Michael like we did with the first attorney that we consulted with an hour before. We all decided immediately after the Zoom meeting that Michael was the right attorney to do our family trust. He is an excellent communicator and kept us in the loop on his progress throughout the process. He delivered draft documents to us for review prior to the promised date. He walked us through the documentations to ensure we understood the contents and I truly appreciated that since reading the legal stuff is like reading a foreign language…maybe worst since I can read it but could not fully comprehend it! Overall, the process was smooth, and we are left feeling exhilarated knowing that the trust that we signed is accurate and it captured my parents’ wishes. Michael is knowledgeable, reliable, and compassionate. Huh... another word that we don’t usually use to describe an attorney…but let me assure you, compassionate is in Michael’s DNA. I highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for an estate planning attorney. Give him a call and you will agree with my review.

Michael Jenkins worked on my parents estate plan including re-doing a trust that was done by another firm, creating a will, financial and medical directives, etc. All of which was rather complex given my parents detailed wishes. We consulted with several firms before selecting Jenkins & Jenkins. Michael was hands down the most knowledgeable and strategic. He was able to come up with a plan that protected my parents assets, took into account various tax savings strategy, while at the same time making sure the all my parents wishes were met. None of the other attorneys were able to do that. In fact, one of the other attorneys told us what my parents wanted was not doable. Most importantly, Michael actively listened, gave suggestions when we were stuck and was very patient and compassionate throughout the entire process. We feel very blessed to have found Jenkins & Jenkins and will definitely refer them to our family and friends and use their firm for all our estate planning needs.

Was recommended to them from a friend and what a great experience from beginning to end! Our situation was urgent and Michael immediately work to accommodate our needs. He is compassionate and made our family feel at ease. Super knowledgeable and gave us great guidance. Highly recommend.

Attorney Michael Jenkins was a referral for us and after doing several interviews with others, we selected him for his responsiveness, his understanding of our needs, his ability to work with some very complex trusts and estate planning, his professionalism, and his compassion. We had provided our situation, scenarios and he came fully prepared with answers to our questions in the initial consultation -which was at no charge. He recognized our need for urgency and delivered as promised, making himself available to us whenever we needed to gather clarification and understanding. We initially were looking for someone who could speak in a different language that my parents could better understand, but we felt a true sense of care and trust after meeting him. He was very patient and we never felt rushed. I recommend him and firm highly based on the customer service we received, his expertise, and he was a true pleasure to work with.

Michael and Caroline Jenkins were awesome in helping my husband and I with our Living Trust. We had been putting it off for years, and in a short few months they helped us get it done. During Covid we could do a zoom call with them and then met them in person at their Temecula office to finish it off. They are both very friendly and made us feel very comfortable even with all the questions we asked. Thank you for your great service and we fully recommend them and their office.

The team at Jenkins & Jenkins is top notch when it comes to estate planning. They guided me through the very murky waters of dealing with my mother's estate after she passed. They made everything seem clear and straight forward and you could tell they cared about me and my family. I HIGHLY recommend working with them, they will guide you efficiently through tough times.

For your estate planning, living trust and/or probate needs, look no further. Due to the nature of my work, I’ve been wanting to setup a Trust and Will but have been procrastinating on it. Then out of the blue, I was tagged to leave for emergency military deployment with a very short departure timeline. J&J was referred to me by a friend, so I immediately contacted them and told them my situation. They were accommodating and professional. Within a week my documents were all processed and complete. God forbid something happens to me but now I can be worry free about my estate being nickel and dime’d as everything will go to my family probate free. If you go with J&J you will not regret it.

My husband and I decided to create a living trust. Michael and his team were very thorough and walked us through the entire process with no issues. They're very responsive to emails and answered all our questions.

I recently had a wonderful experience with J&J. Caroline helped with establish a living trust. She was so easy to work with, very accommodating with her time and answered all my questions. I met with her several times remotely as well as in person at their beautiful office in Sorrento Ridge. She made what can be considered a daunting and scary process seem very easy and straight-forward. I now have peace of mind that should any happen, my son will be taken care of and my family will be able to avoid the painful probate process. Thank you Caroline!

Jenkins & Jenkins, Estate planning attorneys are very professional and knowledgeable. I needed a Living Trust & Will, along with Estate Planning and Caroline handled it in a timely manner with no problems. She listened to what was needed, answered all my questions and was flexible around my hectic schedule. I highly recommend Jenkins & Jenkins!

Michael helped me in creating a trust. He was thorough, worked quickly and was very personable. It was easy to schedule an appointment and their office was easy to find. I had my trust completed in less than a week, which was great. I'd highly recommend Jenkins & Jenkins for your legal needs!
