Rodney and his firm, has provided legal services for our family for years. He's provided estate planning, preparing and executing our will and family trust as well as consulting on real estate transactions and most recently settling a contract dispute. We highly recommend his services. You can completely trust Rodney's fairness, knowledge of the law and most reasonable fees. Ken and Barbara Campbell

I know I am the one in charge of my Last Will and Testament and it was time to get it done. The day came I decided to search for attorneys in my area and called and left messages. Attorney Rodney Gould had on his website a Contact space to write a message. I liked writing my introduction before speaking and I wrote I needed a Will and asked for the cost. He got back to me the same day. I am a widow and he was attentive, patient, and kind and I felt good about making an appointment. In his office we talked about my wishes and prepared to draw it up. One of his strategies was “Next Steps” which was my agenda for more information like Beneficiary Forms, addresses, accounts, etc. I found everything I needed for him. Rodney has made this legal part of the end of my life formal, orderly, dignified, and signed and sealed. I will never go gently, but until then I have peace of mind.

I contacted Rodney a while back regarding getting a will/trust done and called a fair few times with questions. Rodney was always available to either take my call or call me back/respond to an email. I was never made to feel like I was bothering him. Due to personal circumstances it took me a while to get going however there was no pressure from them at all. Since getting my will/trust done I have contacted Rodney again - several times in fact - about another matter and again each time he has been available/responsive. The cost of their service was very competitive compared to other lawyers I contacted - however more importantly Rodney was nothing but helpful at all times. I did also get to meet him in person and found him very friendly and likeable. Not many lawyers you can probably say that about! :-) I would highly recommend him.

I lost my Partner after 43 years together and we were friendly with Rodney and his parnter for years ...but it was only after Bills death did I REALLY NEED RODNEY...not only for a good friend ..,but needed him to advise me in all sorts of ways...to take care and organize Bills estate /to advise me on when to put my inheartance/etc .I do THANK GOD that I had Rodney Gould in my life to help me with everything ....I was a wreck/I was not able to function/to think/to actually live my life alone. He was DIRECTLY responsable for getting me back on track ....and he is still one on my very best friends....and always will be!! Gregg Barnette

Rodney & Lee did an amazing job helping me get my license back! They were so responsive even when I didn't give them very much lead time. Rodney even made a special trip to represent me at my hearing right after Christmas and knew my hearing officer. And Lee was a true professional taking the time to prepare me for my hearing the Saturday before the holidays. I am so grateful for their help and 100% recommend them to anyone needing assistance navigating the DMV Safety Department!

I have worked alongside Rodney with a mutual client for many years and have always been impressed with his knowledge, professionalism and friendly personality. Recently, my husband and I hired Rodney to do our family trust. I had no idea it would be as easy as it was. The preparation was the part that intimidated us but Rodney made us feel very comfortable and the whole process turned out to be smoother than we could have anticipated. I would highly recommend Rodney to anyone looking for estate planning. In fact, I have referred him to many of my clients and they have all been pleased. I will continue to refer him to everyone!

Mr. Gould helped my wife and I create a Revocable Living Trust and Last Will and Testaments as well as update our Powers of Attorney and Advance Health Care Directives. I would highly recommend Mr. Gould for his knowledge and professionalism. Last, he was patient through the process as my wife and I worked out all of the details.

My former attorney has passed I was recommended by a friend to Rodney. The transition on my trust was so easy, I was stunned. A total professional with regard to detail, and planning. My partner had also passed, so a lot of weight was taken off my shoulders in a comfortable, professional and caring way. He's a hero !

My license had been re-suspended for a 20-year-old DUI. It was required of me to retake the 18-month drunk driving program. I was also going to have to re-install the ignition interlock device. I had had a valid drivers license for 18 years and was in good standing, so this was a shock to have this pop up after all that time. I had spoken to other attorneys who told me there wasn't anything I could do about it and I would have to submit to these requirements if I wanted my driver's license back. Then my husband found Rodney online, and he said there would be a way to fight it. Well, Rodney was successful in getting my case heard by a judge and I got my driver's license reinstated without having to retake any classes. It's worth it to stand up for yourself, but it's essential to hire an attorney who knows how to handle a case like this.

As a respected real estate broker, I take great personal pride in the fact that I surround myself with true professionals whom I can count on when placing my precious clients in their capable hands. Not only does my sphere of trusted advisors take great care of my clients, they also make me look good in the process. Rodney Gould is no exception. I've been referring my clients in need of Estate Planing Services to Mr. Gould's firm for several years, and I can attest to his professional abilities and demeanor. He's highly responsive to my clients, holds great responsibility in doing the right thing for them, and earns their respect in the process. My clients always give positive feedback on their experience with Mr. Gould, and always thank me for the introduction. He has my full confidence and I have no doubts that he'll continue to be my go-to attorney for many years to come.

When my best friend died with only a holographic will, I didn't know who to turn to. A friend recommended Rodney and he guided me through LA County's probate process. Rodney was very supportive and caring throughout the case. He kept me informed and updated on a regular basis. Rodney was always accessible to answer any questions I had and was available by phone, email, or in person. The court accepted the will, I was appointed as executor and we were able to close the probate within 10 months. I was very impressed and pleased with Rodney's responsiveness, acumen, and knowledge with his work.
