"We have found the Goralka Law firm to be friendly, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable in every need we have brought to John and his team. Particularly in areas in which we have felt at a loss, their expertise and personal care have given us confidence and peace of mind. These are people we absolutely trust for their wisdom and advice in navigating the complex world of estate planning and protection. We are grateful for their help, and have come to count them as personal friends."

"John, Brittney and Kelly of Goralka Law Firm are a great group to work with - they are professional, kind, patient and knowledgeable. John went above and beyond to help us with some sensitive family issues and we appreciated his help very much. I highly recommend them."

"My spouse and I were searching for some legal advise regarding updating our Last Will and Testament. We contacted 3 different Law Firms - one said it would be 3-4 months before she could meet with us, another never returned our calls, and the last said that he was busy and suggested we continue looking for another firm. We use I-5 a lot, and noticed John Goralka's sign while driving one day. I decided to call and when I did, I was told he was with another client and that he would call me back. Around 6:30 pm I received John's return call. I questioned him about how late in the work-day it was - his response was, "We have a rule here that we return all calls on the day we receive them." Needless to say -we were impressed. That's when we began to meet and work with John and his staff. We immediately were impressed with their knowledge, their passion and their friendliness. We ultimately did not "update our will". Rather, with John, and with his guidance we established a Living Trust which will better accommodate our family needs in the future. We feel extremely blessed and pleased that we found John and his outstanding staff - we believe you will too!"

"After doing extensive research on the Internet to find the best estate planning and family living trust attorney in the Sacramento area, my spouse and I narrowed it down to two firms. We had a free phone consultation with one of the firms and were impressed with what we found out. The other firm, the Goralka Law Firm, offered a free seminar which my spouse and I attended. In the seminar, which lasted about two hours, John Goralka presented a very convincing case for using his firm by going through the many mistakes that people can make when establishing an estate plan. This two-hour presentation gave ample time to interact with John and see how he thoroughly addresses these potential mistakes with his very comprehensive trusts. The seminar gave us much more confidence in using the Goralka Law Firm than the phone consultation we had with the attorney at the other firm, so we chose John to do our trust. We were not disappointed. The whole process from filling out the detailed questionnaire, to interacting with the friendly and competent staff, to our original meeting with John to review our specific parameters for constructing the trust, to the final meeting with John and the signing of the trust and all the related documents went very smoothly. We are extremely happy with our trust, and feel confident that we made the right choice in selecting the Goralka Law Firm. The trust was more expensive than the average living trust, but we are happy we spent the extra money to get the best product available. Saving money on your living trust can cost much more than the money saved if your trust is not constructed in the comprehensive manner John’s trust is. We highly recommend John Goralka and the entire staff of the Goralka Law Firm."

"I originally went to the Mr. Goralka in 2006 for my Will and Trust. I was pleased with the attention I received so when I needed to update these items I again went to Mr. Goralka. I was again pleased. He was patient with my questions and explained until I understood. I would recommend his Law Firm to anyone looking for a reliable source to provide them with conscientious service."

"Five stars!"

"Very warm and good memories of the family speak of family values, love and respect that you carry throughout life."

"John and his staff are all professional and very competent. I refer clients from my labor law firm to John when they ask me if I can recommend an excellent wills and trust attorney."

"Thank you for making the estate planning process so easy and "painless". We appreciate your efforts on our behalf."

"Goralka Law Firm initially helped my elderly mother with her trust and then restating it after her husband passed away. This alone went very smooth and was handled professionally through all the steps and paperwork. Unfortunately, after her husband passed away, an issue arose with the county that involved her property being re-assessed in error, which caused a huge increase in her property taxes. John and his team were a great help in getting this issue resolved. They agreed to file the necessary paperwork with the county along with copies of her trust that were needed to verify that her property never changed hands. John's team stayed in close contact with us by answering all our questions and emails promptly. This whole process was very time consuming on the counties end, but Goralka Law Firm made this transaction easier by making sure we had all the correct paperwork submitted on my mom's behalf. Thank you!"

“Goralka Law Firm does an outstanding job in preparing Trust Documents. They are very knowledgeable, including the office staff, and make the process very smooth by providing answers to your questions in a timely manner. They provide a binder with all of the trust documents enclosed with tabs so it is easy to locate the sections as needed. Their fee is very reasonable, also. I highly recommend the Goralka Law Firm to anyone that requires a new Trust on an updated Trust.”
