The Goralka Law Firm

If you need an attorney to handle your Will and Trust needs, I highly recommend The Goralka Law Firm. John Goralka and his professional and friendly staff quickly put me at ease and comfortable during our meeting. John listened to my needs and concerns and he and his staff took excellent care of me.

John Goralka is a unique attorney. We have Grantor Trusts that give us peace of mind!! Over future years, not only will our children benefit from John’s knowledge, but also our grandchildren. He stives for excellence in the specialties of Trust and Tax law. Without hesitation, we recommend his law firm.

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 have the most basic trust you can get from John, and our trust document itself is 64 pages. When combined with all the supporting documents of the trust, there are approximately 300 pages. We highly recommend John Goralka and the entire staff of the Goralka Law Firm.

After traveling across the country, during covid 19, John and his staff bent over backwards to insure that we would spend no more time in California than absolutely necessary. We traveled to probate an estate and also a trust. We arrived on Tuesday afternoon, were able to meet with John on Wednesday and signed our last papers on Friday afternoon, allowing us to leave Sacramento on Saturday morning. John's paralegal, Haley Hanam was a God send, taking numerous calls from us and ALWAYS being able to answer our questions and expedite our legal papers. We would definitely recommend Goralka Law Firm to anyone needing legal assistance in the Sacramento area. Many thanks, John, Russ and Donnie Royals

I have been working with John for 30+ years. During that time he has provided several services to me and my family that include sales of business, merger, several business acquisitions, probate, estate planning, will, living trust, and a great source for questions regarding tax law. John has been very responsive to my needs making me feel like he worked directly for me and my own private attorney. I would highly recommend John and his team and will continue to use them for years to come.
