I am pleased to give Rich Gaines my highest recommendation.
     I am always careful about giving referrals because they are a direct reflection on me. But I am pleased to give Rich my highest recommendation. Jay was able to present all aspects of wills & trusts to my wife & me in a way that we could understand and he did it with great patience. Rich did everything he said he would do.

He discovered the big picture of my family's needs
     Rich is multi-talented. He takes from his many years of experience in estate planning and taxation, looks to discover the big picture of my family’s needs and has been able to apply his knowledge in the way that will help my family the best.

"I have heard only outstanding reviews from those I referred”.
     Legacy Legal and my bookkeeping company, Find Your Money, have been collaborating in the same office for several years now. Because of our interaction, I have had a chance to recognize the quality of work that both Rich perform.  Therefore, I felt confident to refer my clients to Legacy Legal.  As a result, I have heard only outstanding reviews from those I referred.  Whether they needed Estate Planning, Business Advice, or Tax Representation, my clients have all been please with the Legacy Legal team.

"simply top notch”.
     New to California and knowing we needed to update our wills and such, Rich of Legacy Legal in Carlsbad was simply top notch in walking us through establishing a Living Trust, Will, etc. Rich was very knowledgeable and detailed, walking us through every pertinent detail. We now have piece of mind in knowing that our children will be taken care of. What's truly special about Rich is his easy going, consultant like demeanor. Preparing for those loved ones after we're gone is hard enough and Rich just simply made it EASY! I make very few recommendations (this is my third) and do so when someone stands out. Thanks Rich and the Legal Legacy team!

Working with Rich was such a breath of fresh air.
    

When you think of sitting down and having to decide who will take care of your child in the event of something awful, thats not typically a process that one gets excited about. But working with Rich was such a breath of fresh air. He was professional, yet fun and engaging. He explained the whole document to us in terms that made sense and answered every question along the way. If I am not mistaken, he had us laughing through much of that meeting. If you don’t at least give him a call, you’ll have missed a tremendous opportunity.

"it was nice to have the experienced, calm, quiet Rich Gaines”.
     When I was helping my mom consider the value of a trust over simply adding my sister and myself to separate savings and CD accounts (as her mom and dad did for her and her own siblings back when I was a baby), it was nice to have the experienced, calm, quiet Rich Gaines at Legacy Legal LLP in Carlsbad, CA to explain the trust option to her. He discovered she, like some 68 percent of the folks out there, was without a will. That's really bad news unless you really want to give a large chunk of what you saved all your life to amass to be given freely to probate. Mom took Rich's sage advice and worked quickly to develop a will. The jury is still out on those "newfangled" trusts.... but at least she knows her options now, and who to go to because she trusts him!
