Law Office of Nathan C. Rien

Nathan & Mrs Hart helped my wife and I set up at trust. They did an amazing job! Definitely be using them for the future!

The front desk lady was very accusational about what my family‘s goals were as far as creating a living trust. She made me feel uncomfortable and made me feel like we were doing something wrong by wanting to create a trust. She lost the business. Oh well. Hopefully, the attorneys that work there know that she’s giving away business.

Had a wonderful experience getting our Family Trust done with Nathan Rien. He is very professional, honest, and makes sure you are aware of all the steps needed to completing the Trust in a understanding way. Having him walking us through the process made it the best experience possible. We are very satisfied with the way you helped us tackle this with us. It is never easy doing these things, but with all your help and guidance we got it completed. Also a big Thank You to Theresa H, for helping us get all our appointments lined up, returning calls, and making us feel taken cared of. We are very grateful for all the help received from the both of you. Thank you again. You are a 5 Star Professional from start to finish !!

My wife and I had the absolute pleasure to hire Nathan Rien to do our family trust. We could not have made a better choice. Nathan is a true professional, who handled our trust with all the care and consideration we could have possibly asked for. At our first meeting, he shared what he was going to do and what he offered in his "trust package". He took the time to get to know us and to share his thoughts and ideas about trusts. He then handed us a detailed sheet with everything that would be done for the trust. After listening to his ideas, and what he was offering to do for us, it took a matter of seconds before my wife and I decided to move forward and have Nathan do our trust. We both found Nathan to be meticulous, and he took extra time to make sure that everything he did for us was exactly what we wanted. Nathan presented both advantages and disadvantages to some of our preconceived ideas about the trust. He kept in constant contact with us and made sure that we were happy with the process. Nathan's professionalism is outstanding, and his ethics are of the highest standard. But more importantly, he took the time to get to know us. He offered an extremely friendly atmosphere for a daunting task, and made both my wife and I feel extremely comfortable. We both had a real sense that Nathan cared about us not simply as clients, but as people. When Nathan completed the trust, he presented us two binders. The first binder contained our trust and was sorted in a way that we could easily find any document that we needed. The second binder was a handbook for the executor of our trust. This handbook is amazing. It is filled with answers to questions and situations that arise when you have been selected as a Trustee and are managing a trust. My wife's comment was that it was "invaluable" for any executor. As someone who recently acted as a Trustee, I would have loved to had this to guide me through the process. We cannot thank Nathan enough for the time and effort that he has put forth in assembling this handbook. Last, and certainly not least, is the fact that Nathan's cost for building our trust was beyond reasonable. After dealing with lawyers in the Bay Area, it was a breath of fresh air to find someone who has found an excellent balance between services rendered and fees. To say that Nathan's services were a "bargain" is to understate what we received for what we paid. I have read other reviews on here, and I know that every situation is different, but I would not hesitate one second to hire Nathan Rien to do our trust again, nor would I hesitate to refer him to others. I said it before, and I will repeat it. Nathan made the difficult situation of creating a trust simple and pain-free.

I wouldn’t give him a star, but I had no choice. This attorney does not deserve a star. My mother who is 86 years old, went to him To amend an existing living, trust that my mother had already done by a previous attorney. She wanted to get me as co-executor. After waiting several months for the living trust, he did not put me as co-executor therefore it was a complete waste of money and time. I would definitely call it elder abuse because he refused to fix what we had hired him for. He took $2600 and all we got was basically the same living trust And gave us two binders that he’s so raved about. So basically, our time and money was wasted. I cannot believe that he would not take accountability and fix what my mother had hired him to do. Not to mention we had to go to another attorney to get the living trust done as we asked him to do to put myself as co-executor. This attorney refused to fix what we asked him to do in the first place. All he had to do was put me as co-executor and it was too much for him to make things right. I am so disappointed that his morals and ethics are definitely not up to par and I would not recommend this man.. Again, I would call this elder abuse my mom is 86 years old And he Definitely took advantage of her. So glad we found an attorney in Modesto to fix my mom‘s living trust . She said this is why attorneys get bad names because of his lack of ethics. She could not believe that we had to go to her after hiring Mr Rein To do what we had hired him to do and that he didn’t take accountability and fix it. I hope he enjoyed his $2600 for not doing basically anything but giving us two lovely binders. Not to mention he just amended what we had given him and he couldn’t even put me as co-executor as He was hired to do.
