During our recent visit to Newport Beach to create a new trust, my wife and I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Max Alavi, who proved to be the most exceptional family law attorney I have ever encountered. Max and Diana, his office manager, were always available to answer our questions and provided clear and prompt responses, making the process easy to understand from the very beginning. Their commitment to ensuring everything ran seamlessly was truly inspiring, and I highly recommend their law office to anyone in need of such services. I hope to work with them again in the future. Thank you, team! Tony B.

Max Alavi and his team provided invaluable assistance to my family in creating a trust within a remarkably short timeframe. The level of professionalism exhibited by Mr. Alavi and his team was truly commendable, especially in their prompt responses to my emails and calls. Having previously executed a living trust with a different law firm, I can attest that Max Alavis work surpassed my expectations. His presentation of the trust included a meticulously organized binder, presenting all the information in an easily comprehensible and user-friendly manner. The attention to detail and clarity of the documentation exceeded my prior experience. I am thoroughly impressed with Mr. Alavis work and the quality of the deliverables. Throughout the process, he demonstrated honesty and transparency regarding the associated fees, which I greatly appreciated. Overall, I am highly satisfied with the level of service provided by Max Alavi and would confidently recommend his expertise to others.

My wife was researching lawyers that specialize in trust and wills, she showed me Max Alavi’s website and said she liked it and feels like that’s the one we should go with. She made the right choice the whole process went quick and was a lot easier then I imagined. Everyone was nice to us and helpful. His legal assistant Leanne really knows her stuff she never made us feel like we were a bother when we had a question. Max is a very personable guy we felt really comfortable around him he’s very nice and helpful. We had a specific request and he took care of it gave us exactly what we asked for. I highly recommend this office if your looking for someone to prepare or update your trust and will.

My husband and I were looking to create a revocable Living Trust, and did a lot of research before choosing to call the office of Max Alavi. We began with a brief meeting, at which Max Alavi answered all of our questions. Leanne, his assistant, was friendly and very responsive whenever we called. The process was efficient and straightforward, and the fees were the most reasonable of the many places we researched. We have no hesitation in recommending this company.

Max Alavi and his staff were awesome. Very professional and easy going. Made the entire experience of getting a Will and Trust easy and understandable. Any time we had questions, he was easy to reach, very flexible and made the process easy. On thing we noticed, was that when we showed up for our appt, we were his center of attention, no distractions, We were made to feel special, not just another number.I had a unique situation, and Max did nothing but try to make everything right for us. He kept saying whatever it takes to make you happy. That went along way for me and my family.For a single income family, his rates were fair, and we highly recommend him.Thank You Max, Ted & Becki, Huntington Beach

Good job. Fair priced. Max completed my living trust quickly because I was in escrow in Palm Springs, and I needed to add the property into my trust before closing the escrow. Max answered all of my questions thoroughly without a lot of legal jargon. What else could you ask for? However, the firms Newport Beach location cost me about half an hour, with having to circle around Bristol Street multiple times. The Google map location needs to be addressed. Maybe, a link in your advertisements or a photo of the building could have helped. Otherwise, excellent attorney and law firm - no problem at all. Highly recommend!

Very Unprofessional. Hired Max to Expedite a Trust for our mother. Unfortunately, she passed away a few days later. Max Alavi was not even willing to give a Partial Refund. I guess they don’t teach Compassion and Morals in Law School.

Review №31

2014-07-25 15:22:20

Very professional service. Max was wonderful! He answered all of our ridiculous questions as my husband and I hadnt ever thought of having a trust and had no idea what we were doing. It was a very simple process, and his office worked with us to schedule appointments with our crazy schedule. With our growing family its great to know that our children will be protected if something happened to me and my husband, and we can thank Max for that feeling of protection!

My husband and I found Max on Google search and we are glad we had contracted Max to do our trust. We are truly appreciate Maxs assistance with setting up our trust. Unlike some other attorney which most seem in hurry; he took the time to explain the different types of trust and provided guidance on what type of trust to choose thats best for us. Highly recommended!

Danielle was a pleasure to talk with. She’s extremely knowledgeable and very nice. I was kind of nervous going in, but she quickly put me at ease. If it hadn’t been for my good friend and beneficiary, this would probably never have gotten done. All In all, a pleasant experience, and I would recommend this law firm to anyone needing this type of service. Thanks again Danielle!😊

I wanted to set up a living trust for years, but didnt do anything. I finally decided to get it done this year and searched on internet for estate lawyer, I saw Mr. Alavi has high rating plus he charges a low flat fee, and wanted to give a try.I am so glad I used Mr. Alavis services. Not only because he is very experienced in this field, he is also professional, patient and devoted to his customers. He even responded to my email during weekend and at night. The instructions Mr. Alavi provided for notarizing documents and funding the trust is also clear, detailed and easy to follow.Strongly recommend Mr. Alavi for estate planning.

Max and team were great! Justin was assigned to my case and he moved a mountain for me to say the least. Justin worked diligently on my case which allowed me to continue living my life worry free. He maintained a cool, calm demeanor during my case and was also available. Max and Justin stood up to my evil family members and fought them endlessly on my behalf! The outcome was everything I could ask for and more, I am very greatful for everything and highly recommended Max Alavis Attorneys. Thank you guys ❤👍

Review №46

2014-01-10 01:41:33

If you think writing your name and wishes on a piece of paper is the right route for your estate plan, then you have to call Max. We were advised that this would be an acceptable route, however, Max informed us that we are still likely to have to go through probate, which could cost 5-10X as much as having Max take care of everything for us. He had a flat rate, which was great! It was nice to know exactly how much everything was going to be. Also, he provided a flow chart that easily explained how the trust would work so that it wasnt totally in legal jargon. Thanks Max for making things so easy!

Review №47

2022-06-13 07:07:13

Fully admit they are unqualified to continue the case but took it away. Unauthorized spending. Look at the motions to remove clients. Horrible. Max states the community of attorneys is more important for his business. He promised to take the case himself but that was completely false. Waste of time and money, etc. I don’t know how many clients there are but you can see a pattern, Demand a refund.
