Lorilee DeSantis is the BEST Estate Planning Attorney in Sonoma County, hands down. I couldn't imagine trusting anyone else to protect my assets and my family. The process was so easy and extremely detail oriented. I used to think I couldn't afford an estate plan but after Lorilee and her team educated me around the probate process and the potential cost to my family, I can't possibly afford NOT to have one. If you are looking for a bulletproof Estate Plan, Lorilee DeSantis is the best attorney to provide that. Period.

Lorilee put us at ease right away. She’s personable and competent. She never made us feel like she was in a rush, in fact she took time to get to know us and answer all of our many questions. She made the whole process of setting up a trust easy! I highly recommend her!

I have heard the horror stories about what happens to your estate if you do not have a plan, and I hated the idea of making my family suffer through the probate process before they could get any inheritance from me. It was a no-brainer to get our estate plan handled so that should the inevitable happen sooner than expected, the last thing our family would have to worry about is who will take care of our kids and what happens to our stuff. Estate planning is one of those things that people tend to procrastinate doing, but Lorilee made the process easy and much more comfortable than we ever could have expected. She was thorough, patient, and explained things clearly. I was so pleased with my experience with Lorilee that I have referred her to many other people in my life (including family members, friends and my employees) so that she can help them, too. I cannot recommend her services highly enough.

Needing a family law attorney is not something people typically have on their radar. In many cases, things become urgent and people in crisis-mode do not know where to turn. One would do well to turn to Lorilee DeSantis. Lorilee has the ability to see situations clearly, calmly, and can provide immediate and sound advice in people’s time of dramatic need.

Finding the right person is key and Lorilee at DeSantis Law Group was the one for me. Lorilee did an amazing job at explaining how a Will and Trust work. She always made me feel at ease and I'm happy to have met her. I will definitely come back.

I have used Lorilee DeSantis both personally and as a local Financial Advisor, I have also referred others to Lorilee, and could not be happier with the level of service and quality of work she consistently provides. She knows her business well, will guide you through the process as painlessly as possible and will get the job done quickly and reasonably. Thank you Lorilee.

Lorilee and her team have helped me through the daunting conservatorship process for my mother. I couldn't of done this with out their support and professionalism. Lorilee is kind and very experienced in probate law. I will forever be grateful for all her work on my mom's case.

Lorilee DeSantis was so helpful in preparing all of my Trust documents. She always responded to my questions promptly and offered complete explanations if anything was unclear to me. When preparing the drafts of the documents, we reviewed and discussed them, via email. She demonstrated her expertise in offering advice and recommendations, but was always willing to make revisions to reflect specific information which I wanted to include. Lorilee is professional, thorough, very easy to work with--and patient, as I had some delays on my end in getting to the final product. I heartily recommend Lorilee to assist you with your needs in establishing a Trust! I have such peace of mind knowing my documents are complete and in order, and I look forward to working with her in the future for any changes to be made if and when the need arises.

Some times it takes a tragedy in your life to get you to think about what your loved ones would be left to deal with in the event of your untimely demise. After a friend died in a boating accident leaving a wife and 4 kids behind to deal with the aftermath, it spurred my wife and I to get our affairs in order. There was no question at all as to who we would have help us through the process of setting up a will and trust....Lorilee DeSantis. We attended a free seminar (put on by Lorilee) on the importance of having estate planning in place. After attending, we set an appointment with Lorilee to discuss our situation and I have to say that the level of professionalism and comfort that her and her unsurpassed staff provide is second to none! The communication through the whole process was great and they were patient when we needed time to think about some difficult questions that arise from this process. Do not hesitate to talk with Lorilee about your estate planning.....life can be shorter than you think...do your self and your family a favor... Call her today and sleep better tonight.

Excellent service and very friendly atmosphere. I was able to find this LDA randomly and desperately online. Ben Smith is an amazing human being, very helpful and friendly he is truly heaven sent and my boyfriend and I are truly great full and very happy to have found him and his services

I found this LDA in a desperate time of need, as an out of state Mother I was running out of options. Not only did I have lack of resources as well as knowledge of where to start. I began to lose hope and I prayed and prayed. The doors finally opened with this wonderful human being known as Ben Smith. Not only was he patient but very well with communicating what he needed from me. He worked with my case and eventually managed to accomplish overcoming many obstacles. I will forever be grateful for his hard work and dedication he puts into every case load he is given. He made me feel like I wasn't the monster I was painted out to be by the courts. I will 100% recommend his services and I will be using his service if I am in need again. Thank you again and I hope and this reaches out to many in need of professional help. God bless

It was a great service with specific details and information. I would contract Ben once again. Great work he does!
