Client Reviews

Our Clients Love Us

Don’t just take our word for it; here’s a sample of what clients are saying about us.

  • “Sadly I have lost three family members over the last 4 years, and have had to take on executor duties. West Coast Wills helped me, first during the COVID lockdown phase when everything was extra difficult, and more recently with both unexpected and expected deaths of my parents. Their advice about asset management and planning actually saved tens of thousands of dollars for my father’s estate which I very much appreciate. My wife and I also did our wills with them which has given us peace of mind.”

    Torsten Nielsen

  • “We hired West Coast Wills & Estates after a less than satisfactory experience with another law firm. We have been very pleased the the professionalism, responsiveness, and good customer service. As an attorney myself, I would not hesitate to recommend the firm to anyone seeking professional advice on trusts and estates issues.”

    Erik Autor

  • “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.”

    Robin Smith

  • “The people at Westcoast Wills and Estates were extremely kind, informative and responsive. During such a difficult time these attributes were most appreciated. Thank you so much for all your help and patience.”
