I would never recommend any attorney in this office especially Cheryl Summers. She will not do what you ask her to do even if she agrees that it's what needs to be done and tells you "I'll get right on that". She will destroy your case and create more problems that you will need another attorney to fix. This is the same Cheryl Summers that has an office in Fremont CA. DO NOT USE THIS ATTORNEY YOU'VE BEEN WARNED !!
The response from Ms. Yang is not quite correct. My friend used Ms. Yang as her attorney long before she used Ms. Summers and Ms. Yang was even worse and did not represent her as she said she would and that lost my friend $60,000. I came to your office and spoke with you Ms. Yang and you spoke with me at length about Ms. Summers. I will admit that you were at least open enough to advise me to tell my friend her options and that one of them was to file a malpractice law suit against Ms. Summers because she failed to immediately email the executor as we had urgently stated she needed to do or otherwise she would proceed with the sale of the home against the principles wishes to have the home valued at fair market value. Thanks for that at least, but I would never use you or anyone in your office and I don't recommend that anyone else do either.

I had lost my original estate documents during a move, but Ms. Yang was able to reproduce/replace them. A couple of years later I needed to again revise my trust, will, power of attorney, and health care directive. Since Ms. Yang still had them in her electronic file she was able to do this for me very quickly. I would recommend her to anyone seeking an attorney to help with their estate documents

Clara has been handling my trust and estate issues for over 10 years and she has been great! Not only has she explained things clearly but has helped me make decisions and stay on top of necessary issues. She has been available when I have lived out of state and has been most helpful. She clearly cares about my life.

I met with Clara in 2008 and she wrote up my estate plan and Trust. I was very impressed by her professionalism and knowledge. Then I had some changes recently and she took care of everything. She also updated my documentation to reflect the newest latest changes in taxation which she keeps up on. If you like honesty, straight talk, and a person whom you can trust, look no further, Clara is the right one for you!! She sincerely cares about her clients, and she will do the best thing for you.

Clara Yang did my will and trust. I met other lawyer before, however after I talked to Clara I immediately decided to let her handle my case. She's very professional, knowledgeable, and patient. She helped me and made sure I understand all possible situations. She also gave me very useful suggestions. I would highly recommend Clara Yang for handling your estate planning.

We were looking for new elder-law attorney in the Sierra Foothills area. We found Clara and are glad that we did. She is very knowledgeable and takes the time to answer every question, in detail. She did a new living trust, wills and power of attorney documents for us. We are very satisfied with the results. We highly recommend Clara Yang.

If you are looking for a knowledgeable, efficient probate attorney, Clara Yang is it. Clara was great at explaining the probate process and did a lot of research to help me get through the process. She did all the leg work that needs to be done to process my claim and made everything as painless as she could.

I am a 64 year old MD, and I respect professional people. Clara is an serious professional and she is excellent at what she does. She does quality work and delivers what she promises. She also sincerely cares about her clients.
I have had many dealings with attorneys over the years, and have many attorney friends. I know great attorneys when I see them. Two of my daughters are lawyers in San Francisco, and they graduated from Yale, Berkeley, Michigan, and Stanford. Clara is as good as they get, and I strongly recommend her.

Awful, this lawyer should be disbarred. She has no moral compass. When I spoke to her on the phone you could hear her kids in the background. when I visited the office her kids are allowed to run around the office and play on the computers where she conducts business. I would never use this lawyer for anything. I would advise anyone who has used her to have all of your paperwork rechecked. You want to make sure that it is valid and the information will hold up in court if needed. What was happening in her office was so unprofessional I don't know how she could actually conduct business there

I would highly recommend Clara Yang for handling any and all of your estate planning. She is extremely knowledgeable and will take the time necessary to get all of the answers you would ever need and make sure you understand everything.
Clara Yang has done our will and trust. She took the time to make sure we understood all of the documents. We have the tendency to put things off so when we started doing our will and trust we gave her all of the information and she prepared the documents and submitted them to us for approval and any need correction. We had paid most of the fees up front so there was no need on her part to keep reminding us about finishing the documents. So after about 6 months of her persistence we finalized the documents. To her credit she had to do several rewrites due to changes that were needed due to our procrastination. She followed through were most lawyers would have just let it slide and we would have never finished what needed to be done.

I have been working with Clara for over five years. During this time she has always been very attentive to the issue being considered and explains her findings simply and thoroughly. Clara provides alternative solutions and presents the pros and cons of each. I travel extensively and Clara is always just a phone call away. I would not hesitate to recommend Clara Yang.

I helped my very old uncle work with Ms Yang to recover his assets, which were fraudulently taken from him. Ms. Yang was diligent, thorough and sympathetic in pursuing his claims. Her written pleadings were well documented and well written. She was successful in recovering his assets. During this difficult time for my uncle, she became a good friend to him. I recommend Ms Yang, particularly when the legal work involves a senior citizen.

We were pleased in our experience in dealing with Clara. She has the knowledge we have been looking for and did a great job in resolving the unusual problem we had in updating our will. We look forward to a long relationship and will recommend others to her whenever we get the chance.

Clara is a very nice person, and she pays close attention to detail. She goes the extra mile to help you out and explains things thoroughly, and has your best interest in mind, not like many out there. She is very professional and organized, and you will definitely be happy with her services. She does an excellent job with Estate Planning and Probate. I highly recommend her.
