With a diverse board of attorneys having more than 60 years of combined experience, we are recognized as one of the premier firms in the Bay Area for estate planning, litigation, will and trust administration, and probate matters. We accept clients in San Jose, as well as throughout the surrounding counties.
We handle such matters as will and trust planning, probate litigation and estate tax returns at our law firm. Additionally, we assist clients when they have reason to contest the terms of a will or if they suspect their loved ones are the victims of elder financial abuse. There are many nuances to estate planning law, requiring detailed knowledge and an ability to recognize which option would best suit clients' individual needs. For example, the families who seek our assistance may think they need help with a simple will when, in fact, a personalized trust may better suit their needs.
Our team is committed to protecting the financial and emotional interests of our clients. Whenever possible, we strive to preserve family harmony and avoid disputes by planning solid, comprehensive wills and trusts and suggesting peaceful resolutions to conflicts that may arise. However, when necessary, we are capable of upholding our clients' rights in the courtroom.
Many members of our team at Temmerman, Cilley & Kohlmann, LLP, are certified in estate planning matters by the California Board of Legal Specialization, ensuring clients receive the utmost in professionalism and attention. At our law firm, we accept credit cards for clients' convenience.
