My wife and I attended a seminar presented by John Goralka and were very impressed by his knowledge and the way he engaged the attendees.. We decided that night to have John update our trust. We made an appointment and went into the Goralka office shortly after the seminar to meet privately with John. The initial data gathering meeting went well. A month or so later and after we reviewed the first draft of the trust we had another meeting in which the trust was finalized. John and his staff were very easy to work with throughout the process. We highly recommend John and the John Goralka Law firm to anyone who needs help with their Living Trust needs.

John Goralka is very knowledgeable and we put our faith in him to handle our estate trust. All the attorneys, paralegals, and staff at the firm were extremely helpful and patient in responding to our questions and calls for help and advice. I highly recommend the Goralka Law Firm.

My husband and I were looking for someone to help us update our wills and trust when we saw the advertisement in the Sacramento Bee for a free Living Trust seminar at the Goralka Law Firm. We decided to check it out and were very impressed with all the information John shared with us. They did an extremely thorough job for us and were very professional, friendly and helpful. We very highly recommend them to our friends and family.

I am very pleased and impressed with the work that John Goralka does. His 3 step process ensures that you understand what you are getting and why you may need it. In his seminar he explains it all in layman's terms. He does a very thorough job of estate planning, is extremely friendly and respectful. I also like the fact that his fees are a flat rate and phone calls are free.

We first met John at a seminar he was giving about estate planning and trusts. I went expecting a timeshare hard type sell approach. I could not have been more wrong. John went through a information packed presentation. He explained various types of trusts and the living wills giving pros and cons of each type. I came out of that presentation feeling informed, not pressured. We made an appointment to have John prepare our trust. When we met in John's office all his employees were friendly, happy and helpful. He made the preparation of the trust more like a friend having a conversation than a boring and lawyerly box "A", box "B", sign here inquisition. After the first meeting we received a rough draft to go over. We were able to rethink some things and make changes. During this time all calls and questions were promptly answered and resolved with the same friendly attitude. When we came to sign, it was like meeting with a friend. The process was quick and all documents were very well prepared. We have an in-depth understanding of what we would need to do and very clear instructions for the Successor Trustee. We recommended Goralka Law Firm to my wife's parents and they too are having their trust updated. At all times John Goralka and his entire staff were professional, friendly and helpful. I not only highly recommend Goralka Law firm I will only use them for any future Estate planning.

First and foremost I would like to thank John and Kate for putting together our family trust. John's knowledge and professionalism were above and beyond what we expected. The customer service his office gave us was outstanding. We were met with sincere greetings and a smile as well as just making us feel very welcomed. John was very thorough in explaining the steps needed to set up our trust. He made it easy to understand all of the procedures needed in setting up the trust. I would highly recommend "The Goralka Law Firm" for all of your trust needs or any other John"s office provides. Thank you again John.

I met John M. Goralka when he made a presentation at a Living Trust Seminar. He was so knowledgeable, easy to understand, that I made an appointment that day! John made such a big impression on me that I had him update my Living Trust which had not been done for 22 years. He also helped me complete my complex 2014 Taxes in regards to the sale of my home, taxes, etc. I was so pleased with my updated Family Trust that I have recommended John to my family and friends needing Estate and Family Trust Planning. John and his Staff has truly been a very pleasant experience.

We had our Family Trust revised by John Goralka, he was patient, and took his time to explain all the possibilities, then completed the paperwork and went through it all to have us sign. We were pleased with the product.

I attended a Living Trust seminar presented by John. My mother had just passed and Mom and Dad's Living Trust had not been updated in nine years. I was impressed with the extensive knowledge John demonstrated. I went home and told my father he should contact John to update his living trust since it had been so many years since it had been done. We went to see John and he updated my Dad's trust. Dad is very happy with what John and his staff have done. He now has peace of mind knowing all his wishes will be taken care of. John and his staff were very professional and at the same time so friendly we felt like we were now part of their family. We highly recommend John and the John Goralka Law firm to anyone who needs top notch legal help with their Living Trust needs.

I started my relationship with the Goralka Law Firm by attending their living trust seminar. I highly recommend this! I have been a financial planner for almost 20 years and have attended numerous seminars, but none as educational and motivational as John Goralka's! After the seminar, I arranged to have him come speak at my branch office where he was equally impressive. He and his staff have been nothing but professional, timely and pleasant to work with. I also just completed the process to create our family trust.and was most satisfied. Every concern I had and decisions I needed to make were carefully addressed. In close, I highly recommend the Goralka Law Firm to anyone in need of a new trust, trust update, or estate tax planning. You will not be disappointed!

John Goralka handled a restatement of our trust for us. He, as well as his staff, was excellent to work with. John impressed us with his knowledge and attention to detail as well as his desire to end up with a product that would address the issues we were concerned with and be current with the laws as well as provide protection if those laws should change. He addressed our questions and concerns with respect and a willingness to spend time to explain and help us make decisions. We would recommend John Goralka to anyone seeking excellent legal assistance.

Both John and his staff have always been extremely courteous and thoughtful. I have no hesitation to continue to recommend The Goralka Law Firm to clients and friends.
