BJ&J was a blessing to our family in a very critical time. A close family member was injured in an assault and incapacitated, which left our family scrambling for help at a very crucial time to save his business from going under. We appointed Courtney Bravo to represent us and guide us for an emergency conservatorship. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, and sensitive to our needs and timing. She explained the entire process thoroughly and was available for any questions we had along the way. Courtney was always present for our Zoom court hearings. I would definitely recommend BJ&J and Courtney Bravo for your estate/trust and conservatorship needs.

I had the pleasure of working with Hilary Vrem during a family probate case. It was a difficult time for me as I was dealing with a loss in the family and needed assistance tackling the legal process. She provided me with a clear understanding of what to expect and guided me through my best options and next steps. She went above and beyond throughout our correspondence. I would happily recommend BJJ, their attorneys, and Hilary to friends and family who are dealing with a similar situation.

Courtney Bravo handled every step in the process of a rather complicated estate with complete competence during the covid pandemic lockdowns that caused rarely-seen delays in the courts. I wasn't living in California at the time, which made me rely even more on Courtney's appearances in court; she handled every detail with professionalism while working with me halfway across the country via emails and phone calls. I would not hesitate to get legal representation from Courtney again and recommend her to my family & friends.
