"The Meier Law Firm is wonderful!"

My brother had lost his living trust documents. Suddenly, we found out he has stage 4 cancer. We called Meier and they were able to put together an updated trust in less than a week. Everyone at the firm was wonderful and caring. Melanie was our attorney. If you are looking for a caring, honest law firm, Meier is the one for you!

"Extremely grateful for the excellent service and for people who truly care about their clients. "

My father and I sought out Meier Law during a very difficult time. We heard extremely good things and set up an appointment. I recently lost my mother to a long term illness. Mother’s loss after 4 years of home care, through the pandemic took a deep toll on my father and my self. We needed to get our documents in order so if father fell ill (or myself) we’d be in a legal position to provide care. We also wanted to design a well thought out line of succession. Our final wishes needed to be laid out in detail as so they would be honored.

Meier Law (all representatives) was there the entire way. They engaged us with compassion and empathy while also conducting the difficult, legal tasks that needed to be done. Johnathan was extremely accommodating during this difficult time. Melanie was equally as kind & thoughtful. The staff was and is simply amazing. Always available for calls throughout the entire process.

At the very end of this process, sadly my grandmother also passed. We had kept our promise to her to not take her from her home. Suddenly, my father and I had an estate with multiple assets to deal with. Melanie, Johnathan and the entire staff immediately worked with us. Our first meeting concerning the estate, they were beyond gracious again understanding the stress we had endured as caretakers & feeling of loss. They wasted no time in tending to time sensitive items.

Owning a family business in Orange County since the late 1950’s, there was a lot of legal, real estate & pro-forma items to be tackled. Meier Laws’ knowledge was extensive and they worked diligently on our behalf. We’ve felt well represented and less burdened this entire time.

Meier Law’s fee structure is extremely fair. I’d argue more than fair with the amount of unique services tailored to my family’s needs. When an item is outside of their purview they have recommendations. Their recommendations are conveniently located and offer equal satisfaction in father’s and my opinions. They’ve been the difference in staying on track and getting our affairs in order.

In my professional life I’ve always looked for those who are genuine, empathetic & extremely talented. Meier Law is all three. We simply could not handle all that has happened without their help. Personally I need the kindness at this juncture in life. Too much has transpired and there are incredibly difficult days. Not only do you want to surround yourself with the most talented people, we desperately needed the understanding that caring for multiple family members is taxing. Meier Law has outperformed on every level.

Extremely grateful for the excellent service and for people who truly care about their clients.

"Thank you Laura, Sidney and all for all the wonderful work and advise you provided to us as your clients"

So yes, my husband and I have procrastinated for about 8 years on putting our important legal paperwork together to include our ‘will’ and other… We finally went in and Laura and her staff made us feel very welcomed, expedited our paperwork and made it very easy for us. We procrastinated because we didn’t want to fuss with any of this but in the end, we felt we should have done this sooner. Better now, then never. Thank you Laura, Sidney and all for all the wonderful work and advise you provided to us as your clients. We will definitely refer our friends and other family to you. We trust you and your family with our private and personal information and know we are on the right path with your help. I don’t know what else to say but THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! Cheers, The Fleming Family

"Meier Law is a spectacular law firm to work with"

I HIGHLY recommend their services!
As soon as I walked in the door, I felt at ease. The office provides a very relaxed atmosphere. We had a very genuine greeting from the receptionist. Respecting our time starting the meetings on time. etc, etc.

I went to them for advice about estate planning as well as tax strategy planning. When I walked out of their office, I felt extremely confident and safe that my future is safe and very well planned out. Laura spent hours with my wife and I and covered every appropriate detail about our past, present and future (including our cats!!)

After covering all our estate planning, we went on to meet with Josh who has a wealth of knowledge about retirement planning, and tax strategies. I came in to the meeting with a list of about 50 questions, and Josh slowly and methodically went through every question and answered each of them with much more detail than I anticipated.
I am looking forward to a very long-term relationship with The Meier Law Firm!!

"If you need an estate plan or help after losing a loved one, you definitely need to talk to Meier Law Firm."

They are an amazing group of people who work as lawyers. They are truly concerned for your needs & help you with what you need. They are knowledgeable when it come to family plans. We learned so much regarding ICE (In Case of Emergency) plans…what will happen to your children/family if you do not have a plan in place. If you have child/children, please consult with this firm to make sure your family is taken care of in the correct manner. We are so glad we did. We have only good things to say about Laura & Josh & the entire team. Thank you for being such wonderful people & lawyers who look out for the welfare of their clients.

"The office staff went above and beyond with every explanation and correspondence"

Our relationship with Meier Law started when my Mother was finalizing her end of life planning. During such a difficult time the office staff was empathetic, patient, and timely in their correspondences. Fast forward a few years with my mother passed and now our little family looking to set up our own trust we knew that Meier Law was the choice for us. Once we called they immediately remembered us which means a lot these days.

The office staff went above and beyond with every explanation and correspondence. When we walked through our final draft with Josh he took ample time to answer every concern thoroughly.

When we signed our final draft in office, Sydney made us feel at home and reassured us that they were there for us no matter if we had a question over the phone or needed to add an item or update to our trust. She found out our son had a food allergy and couldn’t enjoy the in office snacks and sent us some treats to our front door.

Yes law firms are all about business but Meier Law has found that balance of business and hospitality. It truly is a lifelong relationship and not just a business transaction.

"Thank you Josh and Casey"

I live on the East Coast so when I was designated the trustee of my West Coast cousin’s will, I needed to find a law firm in California that could provide guidance and support in a timely manner. I chose the Meier Law Firm in Newport Beach. I could not have made a better choice. It was a pleasure to work with Josh and paralegal Casey. They always responded immediately to any questions or requests with thorough and clear explanations so that I could have trust and confidence in their advice. That trust was well placed! I was very grateful for a seamless closure to my cousin’s estate.

"We are so grateful for the Meier Law Firm and their excellent services"

We had our estate plan redone with Laura Meier, and from the beginning she has treated us like family. Anytime that we had questions, she was quick to respond and her and her wonderful staff made the process so easy for us to understand. What we loved most about the firm was that we know our children are extra taken care of. Not only did we choose guardians for if something were to happen to us, but we also received a whole other set of documents just for our children, including Medical Powers of Attorney and Instructions to Guardians, to name a few. We feel so appreciative of Laura and her staff and know this will be a life long relationship with them.

We had our trust redone with them recently and Jessica made everything so simple and easily for us to understand. The whole staff was professional and the customer service was outstanding.

"The Meier law firm as a whole has been extremely professional and we are thankful for all the assistance we have received"

The Meier law firm provided my family and I a great opportunity to participate in a 21 Day Boot Camp. This camp broke down our expenses and helped us understand where are money was going every month. The camp also brought up some important topics such as creating an estate plan, enrolling in life insurance policies, and prioritizing my family’s ultimate goals. Laura’s assistant Casey was incredibly helpful through this process. She was able to answer all my questions and put us back on track when I wasn’t sure where to start. Casey even helped me set up an appointment with Jonathan for life insurance.

"Laura Meier is knowledgeable, friendly and makes the topic an easy one to get through"

Talking about what happens to your assets after youre gone might not be the most enjoyable project for the week! We selected Meier Law Firm to create our family trust and it was the best experience one can have. Laura Meier is knowledgeable, friendly and makes the topic an easy one to get through. Josh Meier is now our counsel for tax and other issues. The rest of the team in the office, especially Bonnie and Jonathan; again made sure we were always at the right place at the right time. We have our trust done, in a few short weeks, and I would HIGHLY recommend the Meier Law Firm for any legal needs. We always call Laura and Josh first!!!! If anyone has questions, please write me.
