Mrs. Bacarisse recently helped my husband and me with our estate planning. We had dreaded doing it because we thought it would be a tedious and difficult process. Jana Fay made the whole experience as painless and easy as possible. She was very patient in explaining all of the intricacies to us and always responded promptly to all of our questions. She cares about her clients, and that is reflected in the quality of her work. We feel so relieved to have all of our estate planning completed and would hightly recommend Jana Fay to help you through this process.

Jana Fay is a fantastic attorney for your estate! She helped me during a very difficult time when my Aunt passed away and I was left with a lot to deal with. I hired Jana Fay after another attorney failed me and she picked up the pieces and had my back in so many situations. Even though I am not in the same city with her, I plan on having her handle all my estate planning. She is trustworthy and knowledgeable. She can be stern if need be, but very professional in all her dealings with people. Even after months of trying to gain a pension for my dad, she did not let the matter drop and managed to successfully make this happen for him. I absolutely receommend Jana Fay for all your estate planning needs.

I am so glad that I was referred to Jana Fay for help in probating the estate of my deceased father. Living in another state, I wanted to work with someone who was capable of managing the entire process, limiting my need to travel to appear in court. Not only did Jana Fay take care of everything, she far exceeded my expectations on timing. Many people warned me the process might take well over a year. Even with some complicated elements, Jana Fay was able to move our case forward to completion less than 6 months. And I never had to show up in court. That saved me time, money and frustration. I would highly recommend Jana Fay.

I sought out Ms. Jana Fay Bacarisse’s estate planning assistance when my elderly aunt was hospitalized in Houston. Ms. Bacarisse called me back immediately and she patiently explained the estate planning options. She telephoned my aunt right away and they discussed her will and advanced directives. Her calm and reassuring demeanor showed she knew what to do right from the start. Ms. Bacarisse even volunteered to travel to the hospital in Houston so my aunt could sign her will. That is something I never expected from such a well-respected professional. Ms. Bacarisse went out of her way to help both her client and her client’s family during a very difficult time. I cannot say enough good things about her. If you need an estate planning or probate attorney in Texas, hire Ms. Jana Fay Bacarisse right now.

My sister passed away in Texas without a will, and I needed to probate her limited estate. The challenge is that I live in California. I found Ms. Bacarisse on Avvo and she had experience with remote probating and walked me through it. She kept me informed at each step of the process on what is needed and what is to be expected. She also was very clear on what I needed to provide. The whole process was easy, and was not an impact to me in terms of time commitment. I was always amazed that she was prompt in responding to any question I had, regardless of what time it was. I found her fees very respectable. I am glad I decided to go with Ms. Bacarisse to successfully help me probate my sister's estate, and would heartedly recommend her to others faced probating relative's estates.

I had the privilege of working with Ms. Bacarisse in 2008 through 2010. My wife Carolyn had died suddenly after major surgery. She helped me through all the complicated matters of dealing with a small estate. In addition, she also helped me finish up my brother's estate. He had died intestate, and she was very knowledgeable in dealing with the probate court on these matters. She recently drafted my will. I would and do highly recommend her to anyone seeking an excellent estate attorney.

My husband had just died and I thought his and my wills were complete. I contacted Jana Fay for help with probate, my will and other documents. She very patiently and clearly pointed out my husband's most recent will did not have two required signatures nor did mine. She knew exactly what to do, carried out probate, did a new will for me because of needed changes, handled medical directives for me, etc. Everything was done in a timely manner and with utmost care in being sure I understood what she was doing. She also kept my children informed being sure they understood what she was doing which I greatly appreciated because at the time I could hardly think. I had no problem in being able to speak with her or in receiving answers to emails. Jana Fay made a most difficult time for me less so because of her caring professional manner and I will always be grateful I chose her to be my attorney.

When my aunt died without a will very far from where I lived, I did not know where to go or what to do. I was given Ms. Bacarisse's name from a stranger. I just took a leap of faith and called her. Within days, she had us focused in the right direction and we were able to work through so many issues together. She became a confidante, psychologist and most importantly a legal representative I knew I could trust and depend on.
