The Desert Law Group was extremely helpful in updating our father's trust at a very critical time for our family. He was recently given a few months to live, and we realized that the trust he had done 15 years ago needed to be updated in a major way. We contacted Kimberly Lee and her group. They were wonderful. My dad was so impressed with how friendly and caring they were throughout the entire process. The group reviewed the old trust and they told me that it was likely done by a Trust mill and really should be updated to protect our fathers wishes. When we spoke to our dad about his

We were so impressed with the quick and excellent service and estate planning work performed by Kimberly Lee of the Desert Law Group. Over my past 50 years of working with attorneys in all aspects of the law, this firm was outstanding. I definitely do not think you will be disappointed in their handling of any estate planning concerns you may have.

There are not enough superlatives when it comes to recommending Kimberly Lee and Desert Law Group. We had not updated our living trust and wills for many years, and the weight of outdated documents weighed heavily on our minds. Kimberly completely addressed our concerns which resulted in the kind of peace of mind we had not felt in a long time.
Her entire staff made everything simple and easy to understand. Everyone was so knowledgeable, and the customer service was outstanding. The entire process exceeded every expectation. It was crystal clear from our very first conversation with Kimberly that

My experience with Desert Law Group is from a 1-10 a "10" . The care and the responsiveness with Kimberly was outstanding. She listens and she cares. She's responsible for my wonderful marriage. Long story. She did my Trust and everything came out to my liking. There weren't any mistakes and the first go around was perfect. Kimberly and her staff were outstanding. They were very friendly, compassionate while being business like at the same time. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to do their Trust, Estate Planning and Filing Probate to the Court. Kimberly and her Staff are fantastic. Make

Estate planning can look like a very difficult exercise to get involved in, but very necessary to do the thinking, discussing, planning and executing. Some decisions can be tough even to think about let alone make. This is where Kimberly Lee and the staff of Desert Law excel. While they are professional, knowledgeable, and courteous to work with, they actually make estate planning an enjoyable and often fun experience. The follow-up and information sessions they hold for clients can not be beaten. Laws and other legal issues often change and we are kept informed. Highly recommended.

Dealing with Kimberly and her staff at Desert Law Group has been far and away the best business experience we’ve had since arriving in the desert from Canada in 2006. No other business experience here comes even close to the proficiency, expertise and friendliness of this group of people who served us during the COVID-19 pandemic. They made sure we understood the terminology associated with Living Trusts and then guided us through the process of managing our assets within the Trust. Every question we had was answered promptly and clearly. We feel comfortable in knowing that our estate plan is

After my husband received a dementia diagnosis, our financial advisor strongly recommended that we contact an elder law and estate planning attorney to ensure that we had all aspects of our estate in order. Through the recommendation of the local Alzheimer's support chapter, we contacted Desert Law Group to help steer our planning for an uncertain future. The guidance we received and the peace of mind we experienced in updating our wills, powers of attorney, health directives and in creating a family trust were extraordinary. All the pertinent aspects of estate law and issues around probate

I have lived in Southern California and out of state for over 10 years, and needed someone to create a trust to hold our California real estate. I was referred to Kimberly Lee to take care of the title transfer and trust creation. During the process, Kimberly Lee also was engaged to provide me counsel on some complex estate planning, wealth transfer, and gift-giving issues. Kimberly was extremely knowledgeable, professional, reasonable, and friendly--guiding me using language and examples I could understand. Kimberly made me feel like I was her only client-always cheerful and prompt. There is no

My partner and I went with Kimberly at the Desert Law Group initially two years ago to establish our trusts and get our ducks in order. We recently re-engaged Kimberly because we moved, and our estate circumstances changed. I applaud Kimberly and her team because I feel I have an ally that I can go back to as our situation changes. The greatest takeaway that my partner and I both feel is how much they care. It’s delightful to have peace of mind. As an aside, I admire the work they are doing with the First Responders throughout Coachella Valley.

Kimberly has been my estate planning attorney for a number of years but have not got around to writing a review until now. She's always had my back and her staff is a pleasure to work with. My legal issues have gone beyond estate planning, and Kimberly has been a superb guide every step of the way. Two thumbs up to Kimberly and the Desert Law Group!

Estate planning is one of the most confusing areas of personal financial health, and my husband & I were guilty of ignoring this very important task. We met with Kimberly and were immediately put at ease. She is incredibly thorough, well versed in all areas of tax law, deductions and estate planning, and explains everything in very easy to understand terms.
Since our initial meeting, we've reached out several times with questions and she is always fast to respond with clear & concise information. All our estate planning will be done with Kimberly, and we feel secure that our estate

Dennis- your services, knowledge and your professionalism are nothing short of exemplary. Thank you so much for helping my partner and me to make sense of our current situation with regard to our estate planning and documentation. You helped us both understand how best to set things up, how to have our wishes known and carried out, and how to maintain and keep our records up to date. I really appreciate that you walked us through each document and its purpose, and feel that you helped us make really good decisions....thanks!

The Desert Law Group did an outstanding job with my Trust. I moved to California 18 months ago and needed a trust to protect my assets for my heirs. They were extremely helpful in navigating the right approach based on my needs and steered me in the right direction. Their knowledge and guidance was very impressive and exceeded my expectations on many levels. Their approach was the right combination of education for myself, direction for my trust and the personal touch needed for estate planning. I highly recommend The Desert Law Group for all of your Estate Planning needs.
