Koichi from Torrance, CA

Thank you very much for all your hard work. The best law firm I have ever worked with. They are very thorough with all the documents. Very good job on our complicated case!

Keith and Ralene from Hollywood, CA
I had some legal questions regarding my elder mother and decided to give this law firm a try after having a negative experience with the previous law firm I called. Mr. Matsunaga, the attorney who I believe heads this practice, was on the other line and his assistant informed me that he would give me a call back in about ten minutes. To my surprise, he called me back within those ten minutes and patiently answered my questions and provided so much helpful information without ever pushing his services. He was so generous with his time, patient with my many questions and extremely knowledgeable. He even asked his assistant to email me some additional documents detailing many of the resources available for my mother. All around great experience and Mr. Matsunaga is an exemplary attorney and individual.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind review and for taking the time to share your experience. We’re very glad that Mr. Matsunaga was able to answer your questions and provide helpful guidance during what can often be a stressful and uncertain time for families.

At Elder Law Services of California, we believe that taking the time to listen carefully and provide clear, honest information is one of the most important ways we can help people make informed decisions for their loved ones. It’s wonderful to hear that you felt supported and that the resources we shared were useful for you and your mother.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if we can be of assistance in the future. We truly appreciate your trust and your thoughtful recommendation.

Warm regards,
Elder Law Services of California

Feb 2026,
On the first call Robin was able to steer me in the right direction, and she gave me the help that I asked for. I will use their firm in the future. I have already logged her phone number into my phone.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your thoughtful review. We’re so glad Robin was able to guide you in the right direction and provide the help you were looking for during your first call. Our team is committed to making the process clear and supportive from the very beginning. We truly appreciate your trust and look forward to assisting you again in the future.
Response from the owner:Debra, thank you for your 5-star review. It means a great deal to our team to know that you had a positive experience with our firm. We appreciate your support.
I have been a client for Attorney Judd Matsunaga's office to take care of Medi-Cal needs. Gaby J. and Robin were the best most compassionate two people that I have worked for. I came to find out that Gaby is no longer with the firm but I have to give Robin it to Robin as she made me feel so comforting. She will definitely be my go to employee.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Ben, for your kind words and for trusting our office with your Medi-Cal planning needs. We’re grateful you had such a positive experience with both Gaby and Robin. While team members may change over time, our commitment to compassionate, attentive service remains constant. We’re especially pleased to hear that Robin made you feel comfortable and supported — that’s exactly the experience we strive to provide. We truly appreciate your continued trust.

My family went to Mr. Matsunaga for a living trust involving real estate. From first contact to trust in-hand (real estate in the trust) took about 8 weeks. From what I've been able to google, this seems like a pretty standard amount of time for real estate in California, though estimates vary pretty widely.
Mr Matsunaga himself was quite personable and seemed very knowledgeable. Judging by conversations with him and the paperwork we have received, it seems like he went above and beyond to make this process simple for us.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Carey, for your detailed and thoughtful review. We truly appreciate you sharing your experience. Establishing a living trust that includes real estate can involve several important steps, and we’re glad the timeline met your expectations. It means a great deal to know you felt the process was clear and well-handled. We’re honored you chose our firm to assist your family.
Muy buena atencion y rapido serbicio y muy buenos precios los recomiendo yo quede muy satisfecha
Gaby gave me necessary and important information. She was charming and very experienced in the field of Elder Law. I highly recommend this firm and want to share the reassurance I received.

My family greatly appreciated the law service that Judd, Sergio and Robin provided my brother and his estate before his passing. They traveled to the hospital, explained everything accurately, expedited the process due to his health and secured my brother's estate. The trust that was generated is securing his whole estate just as he willed. This couldn't have been done any better.
Response from the owner:David,

Top notch! They have done services for my husband and I. Also my mother. My sister will also be using their services.

They are caring. Professional. Are quick to answer questions whether by phone or email. The pricing is spot on and they go above and beyond the norm. I love the many locations.

They are great communicators and are able to help us past some of the legal jargon. They are also a "teaching" institute. Judd Matsunaga writes articles coaching his readers. AND they conduct many seminars - free of charge!

I can't say enough positive things about Elder Law Services of California and I'm one to not write positive feedback unless my statements are true.

A++++ all the way! 5 star and more........
