I previously met with 3 other estate planning attorneys, it was clear to us that Nick Montalto was the most knowledgeable and experienced. Also these guys are super. This is NOT a boilerplate estate planning firm that offers 5 types of trusts and pushes you to fit into 1 of the molds. Everything was tailored to my needs and wishes.. I also discovered that unlike most of the attorneys we met with, Nick has an extensive background in Estate Planning and I would recommend him in heartbeat and recently had him rework our estate plan and he is doing my mom's estate plan as well.

I had a small amount of medical cannabis and was arrested for DUI under marijuana influence. I hired the Chesley Law Firm and could not have been happier with the outcome. The police officer exaggerated his observations and made up some false claims as to my bloodshot appearance and the smell of smoke, etc. David never beat around the bush and told everybody straight up the honest truth, and that's what I really love about working with him. He brought a copy of my prescription and had my doctor and him sit down for a meeting with the D.A. about my condition. With David’s help, they saw through my POV and I was let off with a warning from the Judge. Easy peasy. Thanks a lot!

From the first phone call to documents in hand I felt 100% about using their services. Sandy and Nick were top notch

Great attorneys, Very reasonable fees. Nick Montalto is an incredibly caring professional, who goes the extra mile for you. He sincerely cares about making your experience a good one, and is gifted in explaining complicated legal jargon into simple to understand English. Also Nicky Montalto takes his time with everyone, never rushes or pressures you into hiring until you're ready. Highly recommend them to anyone interested in setting up their estate plan.

Very helpful in answering all of our estate planning questions, and they reviewed all of our documents which were prepared by another law firm to ensure our bases were covered. Best of all, Nick and his team did something the other law firm did not do, which was explain everything we had signed in a clear and easy way to understand. Also, they were able to explain exactly what steps would take place later if we became incapacitated or deceased. If you're looking for a reassuring, calm and compassionate attorney who knows his stuff, Nick is your guy. His staff is also incredibly helpful and patient.

Great estate planning attorneys and great experience. Mr Montalto is very friendly and professional. It's obvious he loves what he does and loves helping others. The rates and costs were reasonable, and Nick really goes the extra mile without asking or charging more money. Everything was a low flat fee, nothing rushed, and they never changed the costs even though the complexity of my situation evolved since the initial consultation which was a relief. The staff is also very helpful and caring, and not in that forced sort of way. You can tell these are good people who are highly experienced and skilled.

Nick assisted me with some estate planning matters and questions. He was very professional and thorough. I would definitely use his services again.

I was looking for an attorney to help me with a few small business contracts some years ago and found these guys on a recommendation. Nick Montalto was so helpful that I decided to go ahead and convert my small business to a legal corporation with him and the office (Sanders & Montalto). Nick understood my situation quickly and was able to provide solid legal advice that gave me an accurate picture of my legal options in a way that no other lawyer had previously done. His experience was invaluable to me and I really appreciate the time he took to look at my situation in detail. I felt like I could trust him immediately and will definitely be contacting this office for my legal needs in the future. Thanks! - I highly recommend Sanders & Montalto for anyone looking for an experienced lawyer who cares about their clients.

i was accused and charged before i knew it the police officer was very rude and i was truly scared not knowing how to approach this situation i contacted a lawyer the first one gave me some options and did not seem promising at all after talking to some people i ended up talking to this law firm and i was much more reassured, finally someone who would come trough for me and they did! Thank you David Chesley and associates.

Nick knows what he is doing. Not only is he highly knowledgeable and very helpful but you can tell this guy knows his stuff. He makes the whole Trust process I was dreading smooth & easy. Any questions I had he answered and his assistant is very sweet and helpful. Thanks Nick! definitely check him out if you are in the South Bay Area.
