Personal Touch

At Celaya Law, we make a special effort to be accessible, high-touch attorneys. We have a no-cost, lifetime client care program to accommodate family and asset changes that inevitably come.

Anthony Celaya is a very professional and efficient Estate Planning attorney. He recently completed our Family Living Trust and we are very happy with the process, the cost and the results. He listened carefully to our individual situation and prepared the document to meet our unique requirements. His fees are reasonable and competitive. He completed our document very quickly in approximately one week. He also provides continuing support after the trust is set up and is always available to answer questions or go over changes. He has a secure login to review trust information at his website. He's on the leading edge for estate attorney services and we would recommend him highly..

Anthony Celaya was extremely helpful in updating our Family Trust to ensure not only our wishes were covered, but also our Trust was tax efficient and protected the family. Anthony was very patient when answering a multitude of questions typically asked by a "lay person" who is not literate on Family Trust planning. Moreover, Anthony's attention to detail and follow-through has ensured we covered all the bases. I feel confident that as time goes on, Anthony will not only continue to support us, but also our family when the time comes.

Anthony Celaya expertly revised our trust documents and promptly answered the questions we had at that time and various inquiries we have had since. He regularly keeps in touch with clients on various issues pertinent to trust and tax planning. The fees for the services he renders are very reasonable, and my wife and I are confident that he will continue to look out for our interests. We highly recommend him.

Both my wife and myself did our wills and trust work with Anthony and his firm. He executed his duties at the time with professionalism and speed, and has been very helpful in staying in touch since then. We can recommend him highly.

Our extended family needed assistance with trusts and powers of attorney etc. urgently. Anthony made home visits and acted quickly to meet the need which was much appreciated. He was able to explain complex legal details and reassure us that the proper steps had been taken.

Anthony really took the time to listen to my needs and offered guidance and strategies to how best achieve our goals. He counseled me through all aspects of our Estate planning process and explained all documents throughly with an extreme attention to detail. The best way I would describe him is a person of integrity, honesty and wants what's best for his clients.

Anthony Celaya is a very experienced, professional lawyer that I highly recommend. He expertly guided my wife and I through the process of executing our Will and Trust documents to protect our family and assets and avoid probate.

Anthony is the most professional, knowledgeable, detailed oriented, and compassionate lawyer with whom my husband I have consulted. My husband and I recently moved to Napa, CA from Seattle, Washington, and we felt we needed to update our Will, and Estate planning, since we have four children and several grandchildren. Also, we have lived in many states, have had experience with many lawyers, and had routinely updated our Will. Anthony expertly guided us through the process to execute the new Will documents and Trust documents, to protect our family and assets, avoid probate. In the midst of finalizing small points of the Trust documents, my husband was unexpectedly hospitalized for several months in Stanford Hospital. Anthony called us several times, offered to visit us in Palo Alto while we were in the hospital, and met with my son in Napa, to address a few legal issues. Anthony has life experience which sets him apart from other lawyers, and was willing to help us in any way possible, to meet our legal objectives. My husband and I plan to visit Anthony again soon, because we feel it is important to review our Will and estate planning . I would definitely recommend Anthony for all Will and Estate planning needs. He is the above the rest.

We came in looking to create a trust and discuss estate planning in general. Our first meeting with Mr. Celaya was very relaxed and we came prepared with a list of our assets and a general idea of what we wanted in the trust. He provided several suggestions in how to accomplish our ultimate goals that we had in mind. We felt very comfortable and confident with his suggestions and explanations of legal terms and the estate process. We returned about 3-4 weeks later and signed the completed trust documents, wills, power of attorney forms, medical directives, etc. He assisted us with the recording and transfer of our assets to the trust. We highly recommend Mr. Celaya and his services to anyone looking to discuss estate planning.

Anthony is a consummate and caring professional and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone interested in setting up a trust. Creating a family trust was on our to-do list for years and we're so glad we were able to cross paths and finally get our financial planning act together with his guidance! Anthony's extensive knowledge, personable demeanor and straightforward approach immediately put us at ease and made for an extremely pleasant and efficient process. Thank you so much!

"When it comes to working with families, I've seen it all-from children left without guardians, to estates locked up in probate, to inheritances completely lost to creditors.

Consequently, I have a passion for providing peace of mind through the best and most efficient estate planning strategies. I'll let you know exactly what your legal options are, counsel you regarding what I recommend doing and why, quote you a fixed price, and give you an exact date I'll have the work done. It's as simple as that." - Anthony Celaya, JD

A variety of estate planning tools at your disposal

No two estate plans are alike, which is why it is so important to work with an attorney who listens to you and outlines a strategy that's best for your situation and level of wealth. There are many different tools available to help you reach your goals, including:

Last Will and Testament: The most basic type of estate planning document, a will clearly outlines how you would like your estate distribute your assets and property upon your passing. A will does not have an impact on your affairs while you are still alive and does not address issues like what would happen if you become incapacitated.

A Durable Power of Attorney: Through a durable power of attorney arrangement, you grant another person (known as an "agent") to make important financial decisions on your behalf if you are no longer able to due to incapacitation. You may revoke a durable power of attorney arrangement at any time.

Advance Healthcare Directive: Also known as the healthcare power of attorney, an advance healthcare directive outlines your wishes for the medical care you would and would not like to receive in certain circumstances. You would grant another person the power to make these decisions for you if you become incapacitated due to a serious illness or injury.

Children's Guardianship: If you have minor children, it's important to account fo rwhat would happen to them if you and your spouse pass away or becom edisabled. The guardian you name should be an individual yo completely trust and who has the menta, physical and financial capability to take on the role.

Asset Protection: If you are a professional, small business owner, or property owner, we can help you protect your assets against potential litigation, judgements, lients, and fruad by establishing trusts, determining insurance needs, organizing investments and business entities so that you are able to enjoy the highest level of confidence in terms of the security of their accumulated assets.

In addition to these tools, it's important to plan for the possibility that you will need long-term care in the future. There are numerous strategies available to help ensure you do not lose a substantial portion of your wealth due to the high costs of nursing home care. Our knowledgeable attorney can assist with this critical aspect of your estate plan, as well.
