Jonathan Primuth patiently explained our options in a rather complicated case, sympathetically outlining what our personal advantages and disadvantages might be for each course of action. He was extremely professional, supportive, prompt and knowledgeable.

We met several times with Jon to learn and discuss our options for estate planning. He was incredibly knowledgeable and provided excellent examples of what options we had to consider. The whole process was much easier than we anticipated considering the important decisions that had to be made. In the end we were provided with an executed and comprehensive estate planning portfolio. I highly recommend Jon and his team for their professionalism, expertise, and quality work.

Completed our estate plan. Jonathan and his paralegal were both terrific. Cost was reasonable as well.

My wife and I met with Jon Primuth and his staff assistant on two occasions. This was a third review and evaluation of our Trust since it was prepared some twenty five years ago. We were pleased and impressed with the organization of information, clarification of Trust content and suggestions for future Trust modifications. We highly recommend Jon Primuth as an invaluable resource for your Estate Planning needs.

Jonathan walked my wife and I through establishing a family trust and counseled us on ways to protect our assets and see that they are distributed according to our wishes when we pass. Our work with Jonathan has given us a great deal of peace of mind. He was terrific to work with and we couldn't recommend him more highly.

When my cousin died in January of 2014, and I realized the immensity of the task I had as the Trust Administrator, I did not know exactly what to do, since I live in Portland, OR, and my cousin was in Pasadena. As things got complicated, with some assets going into Probate, I looked up attorneys in Pasadena, and made a cold call to the office of Jonathan Primuth. I was most surprised and delighted that HE actually answered the phone. I told him the situation, and he offered to look at the details and get back to me with some suggestions. Jon quickly responded with some good advice, and I hired him to handle the Probate issues with the Estate/Trust. He guided me through the process...two times having to go to the court after some more research on my part. I met with Jon and his staff ParaLegal twice in Pasadena, and those meetings were informative and very productive. Everything got resolved, thanks to Jonathan Primuth's deep knowledge of the Estate/Trust area. And...most of this got handled at some distance, since I could not go to Pasadena very often. Jon's legal fees were fare and reasonable, and I feel very satisfied with how everything was resolved. I would recommend him and his office without hesitation.
