It would be difficult to find a better estate planning attorney than Analisa Pratt in the Bay Area. She is thorough, organized, and extremely smart. She worked with us to revise an outdated trust, and gave us an estate plan, and we are thrilled with the final product. Now we can forget about it, and focus on other things. Here are some of the things we liked: • Flat Fee: We paid ½ of fee upon signing the agreement, and the rest upon completion of the finished product. She offered to redo anything we didn’t like at any time for no additional charge. There were no other fees. • Questionnaire: We filled out a questionnaire with our own information before the first meeting. This prevents numerous changes and greatly reduces the chance for errors. • Graphics and Explanations: We found her visual explanations made the intricacies of the estate plan much easier to follow • Trust Language: The estate plan used easy to follow English instead of legalese. It was clear and concise and easy to understand. • Communication: She stayed in touch by E mail and phone to address any questions we might have. • Summary: We found Analisa Pratt to be an excellent estate planning attorney. We recommend her without any reservations. Jan and David W

Analisa and I were laws school classmates. Although we weren’t that close, we had quite a few classes together as we were both in the Honors program. Even back then, Analisa had always striked me as an extremely intelligent, hardworking and genuinely kind person with great work ethics. Upon learning that Analisa has opened her own practice, I immediately went to her for my estate needs even though her office is 1.5 hours away from me. I didn’t bother to shop around as I knew that I could count on Analisa to do a fantastic job. Analisa was very patient and a pleasure to work with throughout the process. Every time I had questions(and I had quite a lot), she always responded quickly and thoroughly addressed any concerns I had. Towards the end of the process, Analisa was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond her scope of service in helping me get everything wrapped up before I started a new job. I’m completely happy with Analisa’s service and would highly recommend her.

I was referred to Analisa by a friend and had a very positive experience. Analisa is extremely knowledgeable and does a fantastic job describing complex estate planning issues. She takes the time to understand your situation and objectives before offering advice. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a professional, competent and down-to-earth estate planning attorney.
