Experienced estate planning & probate lawyers

“My partner and I recently worked with Westcoast Wills and Estates to prepare our wills, powers of attorney, and representation agreements, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Bronte was absolutely fantastic–personable, professional, and incredibly thorough. She took the time to walk us through each document in detail, answered all of our questions clearly, and made what could have been a daunting process feel simple and manageable. Even when we had to make a few last-minute changes, she turned around the final documents quickly and efficiently. We’re so grateful for her guidance and would confidently recommend this firm to anyone looking for help with their estate planning.”

“I recently had a Will and Trust done at Westcoast Wills and Estates. I initially went with them because of their upfront, transparent, and reasonable fee structure. After being “nickel and dimed” to death by a previous law firm, I wanted a flat rate for my Will and Trust.
I dealt with a fabulous lawyer, Mudit Jain. He is a tax and estate specialist who explained everything thoroughly and offered advice on how to set up my estate in the most tax efficient way possible. He’s extremely knowledgeable, very personable and was available to answer any questions I had during the process.
I’m very pleased with the whole experience and I highly recommend Mudit Jain at Westcoast Wills and Estates.”

“My wife died in late January and I turned to West Coast Wills & Estates to assist me with probating her will. Aron Chitsaz was the lawyer that I dealt with. He was very understanding, competent and patient with me throughout this emotional and , sometimes, frustrating procedure. I received prompt and excellent service both in answering my inquiries and in completing the necessary documentation for the probate. I was impressed that from the time that the probate documents were filed to the time a settlement request was received was only about six weeks. This illustrates that Aron was thorough in the preparation of the necessary documents for probate. I was also pleased that Westcoast Wills charged me a fixed cost for completing the probate rather than having an open ended arrangement. I was very pleased with the service that I got from Westcoast Wills and Aron Chitsaz. I will use them again to complete my own will.”

“I definitely would suggest Westcoast Wills & Estates if you are needing assistance with your estate. Throughout the process, they cared for me like family. Professional, thorough, organized and super friendly. They carefully walk you through all the required steps. I would specifically recommend Mudit or Jessica to help you. Thank you for all your help, support and especially, thank you for caring!”

“Nick Russell and the West Coast Wills & Estates team helped me handle my father’s estate after his passing. My father did not have a will, and it felt like it was going to be a long and difficult process to manage his final affairs. After meeting with a different firm initially and feeling a bit lost regarding the probate process, I met with Nick, and I immediately felt at ease. From the start, he demonstrated that he truly had my best interest at heart. Nick is approachable, accommodating, and has been incredibly patient and responsive regarding my many questions. Nick’s expertise in his field is evident—he’s highly knowledgeable, and I felt confident in his ability to navigate the complexities of my father’s estate. He offered referrals to other professionals needed to resolve various aspects of my father’s estate, and his resourcefulness and willingness to help were greatly appreciated. Nick’s compassion is also evident, which is, of course, important for someone working in this field. Nick’s legal assistant Jean-Ann and fellow lawyer Jackson were also wonderful to work with—supportive, responsive, and collaborative. I appreciated that West Coast Wills & Estates specializes in this field, as multiple team members could answer questions if Nick was ever unable to take my call. I also found their pricing fair. I never felt overcharged, and the estimated fees were presented upfront from the start. I highly recommend Nick the West Coast Wills & Estates team to anyone in need of wills and estates assistance. You will feel like you are in good hands considering their expertise and supportive approach.”

“Jackson Sinclair and his support team are great to deal with. He assisted both my elderly mother and disabled brother through the process of updating/preparing all documentation necessary and appropriate for their later years and end of life wishes, and did so respect and compassion.
Previous to meeting Jackson, they had had an awful experience with a lawyer from a different firm – who was meant to have been an expert on wills and estate planning – instead that lawyer and his team were arrogant and sloppy – both in the advice given and their documentation resulting in multiple corrections and edits to be made.
There was none of that with Jackson and his team – with them, everything was prepared correctly the first time.”

“Just finished getting our Will and associated documents completed.
We found Jessica to be professional, knowledgeable, and very pleasant.
She explained well all the options and answered any questions we had.
Pricing was up front and no extra hidden charges.
Very good.”

““This is a better late than never review, since I had postponed updating my will for far too long. It’s a daunting experience to face the future, and it is far too easy to keep putting off the inevitable.
When I first contacted WestCoast Wills, I was actually nervous just making the call, but the young lady I spoke with was very calm and empathetic. I made an appointment with Nick Russell and as soon as I met him, I felt an instant rapport. He was pleasant, knowledgeable and thorough, and took the time to explain everything to me. He put me at ease and within a few weeks, I had it all done. I wish now that I hadn’t left it so long, but now that it’s been done at last, I feel wonderful!
I highly recommend not only WestCoast Wills, but Nick Russell as well. Now my son and his wife have decided to use him for their estate planning…….and she’s a lawyer herself!”
