Testimonial

My husband and I had a very positive experience with Peter Leon of the Kavesh, Minor, & Otis Law Firm. We met with Peter to update our Family Trust and he skillfully addressed many concerns to resolve family issues. Peter is professional, devoted to his work, and always available to answer any questions. We highly recommend Peter to take care of you and your Family Trust. Helen C.
Attorney Jane Lee from Kavesh, Minor & Otis is the best trust Attorney. She helped me create my trust in I think 2018 and every three years I have been going back to their office for the review update. Attorney Jane is kind and patient. She helped me review everything and got all updates done. Everyone should go see her for all of your Attorney needs. M&M Team Reality
Attended a a free seminar several years ago and decided to use this law firm to set up our trust. Things have changed since we first did our trust and we thought we better revisit it and are glad we did. Our Attorney Peter, pointed out things we forgot about and may want to change. He answered all our questions and was knowledgeable. Definitely recommend anyone interested in creating a trust to at least attend one of their seminars. Regina H.

Very impressed with the knowledge, expertise and professionalism of this firm. My husband and I just finalized our estate plan after taking a long time to get our affairs in order. Our attorney, Peter Keon was patient with us and we appreciated that so much! The office, waiting room and building is beautiful and located in an easy and convenient location nearby the 405 freeway. The staff was kind and welcoming when we walked into the office. Peter Keon is meticulous, organized and detailed oriented. He ensures that you cover all the bases without leaving any stones unturned. He guided us throughout the process and is great with explaining any confusing items on the estate plan in layman terms. We feel so relieved to have our estate plan done in the best hands in the industry! Thank you so much Vita P.

Peter was very professional and courteous . He gave us all the information that we needed and was easy to understand. Smile R.
