Patience and wisdomBrad helped me settle a very stressful, complicated, and potentially financially devastating estate issue with understanding and expert care. He demonstrated what only years of experience can teach...patience and wisdom. We avoided having to go to court AND, in the end, I was the recipient of all I could have asked for and more! I consider myself very fortunate to have been referred to him and very much appreciate the way in which he handled it!

Excellent Attorney! Very satisfied!Brad assisted me in helping settle part of my late father's estate. I was having problems dealing with one of my father's banks, who were extremely unhelpful and basically just giving me bad information (causing me a great deal of stress in the process). He got back to me the same day I called. I explained the issues with the bank, and he took me through all my options, explained what the pros/cons were of each, and helped reduce my confusion and let me know that I could get this settled relatively easily. I really felt supported and appreciate everything. Also, his legal secretary, Hazel, was absolutely amazing, keeping me informed about everything.

We got lucky with a terrific referralWe were referred to Bradley and team by another attorney and were so pleased with the professionalism, knowledge and diligence of the entire team. With the kind of legal dispute we were involved in, it was extremely emotional and disturbing. The team approached the case objectively, for a win for all parties involved. Jacob, Christian and the entire team were patient and knowledgable, putting us at ease. We trusted we were in the best possible hands given this unfamiliar territory.

Trust Estate LawsuitI was introduced to Bradley Kirk 4 yrs. ago when I, as trustee of my mother's estate, was being sued by my sister. Bradley Kirk & Associates is a finely tuned, well oiled machine that represented me brilliantly. They are very knowledgeable, professional and through in every aspect of dealing with Trusts and Estates. Mr. Kirk is dedicated to his clients and goes that extra mile to be sure that every aspects of his representation of you is perfect. Not only was I exonerated of any misdoings; I felt vindicated and pleased that my mother's estate was settled exactly as it was written. I have never had to deal with anything like this before but I feel that I was represented by the best. I highly recommend Bradley Kirk and his team to represent you in any of your Will, Trust or Estate Planning needs.

Winning spiritI had a very complicated case, not one that was easy to defend. I employed two attorneys prior to Brad who were unable to successfully resolve the case. Brad and his staff were thorough in their discovery and knowledge of the case from every angle. He was able to get us into mediation and negotiate them down to 1/4 the cost of what they were suing me for. He was also able to avoid going to trial which save me hundreds of thousands of dollars. In addition to being a stellar attorney, he was always sensitive to my needs during a very difficult three-year period. With great confidence, I highly recommend his firm.

Straight forward, honestHired Attorney Kirk to remove co-trustee, who had commented elder abuse, fraud, and much worse with my Grandmothers estate. I was a hard client, and Brad did a great job. It took some time, was expensive, but worth every penny. I am grateful he was my attorney. He is straight forward, honest, and knows how to put a case together! We went to arbitration to settle and Brad was fantastic, organized, had EVERYTHING documented, and right a his finger tips. My case was complicated and not easy, had it not been for Brad I would have lost everything.

Great Attorney
Mr. Bradley (Brad) Kirk is an excellent attorney. I was very fortunate to find my way to Brad and his firm. Despite already having several legal actions on trust and elder issues brought against me in other venues, and one still pending, Brad was quickly able to master the complicated history, get to the heart of the legal matters, and provide invaluable guidance to me as a trustee, attorney-in-fact, and with my court accounting.
Brad is an excellent communicator and is diligent, hard working, knowledgeable, creative, and smart. His (and his team's) preparation for depositions and skill during the depositions was amazing. We didn't ultimately go to trial, but Brad and his firm were thoroughly prepared to proceed. The final resolution of all matters was what I was seeking from the beginning.
Along with Brad, it was also a pleasure to work with Jacob, Larissa and Christiaan. They were always professional, compassionate, honest and diligent. They went above and beyond, and I am very grateful to them.

Highly recommended!I used Mr. Kirk for a trust issue that had been ongoing for years. He was able to settle what 2 other attorney's were not able to do in a relatively rapid and cost effective manner. The entire experience was so much better than I imagined it would be. He is personable, approachable and has a great support staff. I would highly recommend Mr. Kirk.

Experience, knowledge and communications
Upon the sudden death of a friend, I became Executor of her Estate and Trustee of her Trust. All of the beneficiaries were out of state. I didn't know where to start, but Jacob of Bradley Kirk & Assoc helped me get organized and get through the many steps in the process to perform my duties on behalf of the beneficiaries. He always responds to my emails and phone calls in a timely manner.
There was an outstanding debt due to the Estate that posed a more complicated issue, but Jacob’s experience, knowledge and communications skills continue to help me work the issue. I appreciate the integrity of Bradley Kirk & Assoc and recommend them highly. I feel I have received excellent value for the fee I've paid.

Diligent, Thorough and Knowledgeable - Highly RecommendI have worked with Mr. Kirk and his firm a number of times over the past several years. I have been consistently impressed with the quality of the representation he has provided.

I highly recommend him and his firm.

Thorough, Diligent and Knowledgeable - Highly RecommendI have worked with Mr. Kirk and his firm for over a year correcting the wrongful and hostel actions that my only brother and his wife took from the family Trust. Both my father and I were shocked at the level of greed and deception that our family member showed. However with Kirk and his highly dedicated team we were able to insure a fair out come to the probate case. I have been consistently impressed with the quality of the representation he has provided. He has demonstrated all the traits that you hope to find in an attorney - he is very knowledgeable in his field, cares about his clients, works hard to get the best results and has great judgment.

Diligent, Thorough and Knowledgeable - Highly RecommendI personally am in the medical field, taking care of patients and making their lives easier, more tolerable if I can. I take pride in what I do and do it honestly. When my family member was being assisted by the neighbors I had no idea how cruel people could be. My family member was isolated from all of us for 18 months because of the situation. With a little hope they reached out to us for help. Fortunately by this time there was enough documentation from medical/social/other professionals to begin reclaiming their life and the estate.
My sister and I needed to find someone that wasn't just an average lawyer but someone that was well versed in a complex set of laws. My criteria was we needed the meanest sob we could find because we were dealing with real creeps. Bradley was recommended by a lawyer friend, he is brilliant, professional, well versed in different areas of law, prepared for any situation, personable, and compassionate.
This case took on so many different angles and so many different aspects of law, constantly taking different directions of how devious a person could be. Bradley was never phased by the situations and was always prepared for what came next. His trial performance was impeccable, he arrived on time, looked professional, prepared everyone for what was going to happen, and then performed. The court proceedings at times seemed like a ballet of words, he never stumbled, always had the next line ready.
This case was complex, lasting 3 years. Bradley was always patient with us, taking time to explain the legal aspect of situations over and over at times. He always responded to our requests in a timely manor, always took the time to truly understand the wishes of my family member. This is an important statement, Bradley always made sure that he followed the clients wishes.
Another aspect of the whole legal world that was surprising to me is that of the attorneys that have a premier reputation, Bradley is well regarded as one of the top attorneys.
We will always be grateful to Bradley and his firm for giving our lives back intact. He continues to follow us to this day, always happy to get an update on the family, always courteous. We were fortunate to find him.- Lorna

Help in a very difficult situationWhat a blessing you have been to my husband and me!
At a time of great need and awful insecurity due to the impending unknown, you provided the help, trust and peace we needed to believe in ourselves once again.
These are not overstatements, they come from my heart.
I have had dealings with attorneys in the past. Some of which were not positive experiences, but you and your staff were incredibly responsive, always returning my communication be it phone calls or electronic within 24 hours.
Your professionalism truly reflected your training and experience in the field of probate litigation. The like mindedness of your faith was extremely comforting to us and we completely trusted you with all that we have.
It is with great pleasure that I can highly recommend you to anyone who needs help with probate litigation.
Again Brad, Christiaan and staff thank you so much for having been there in our time of need.
May our dear Lord bless you, your families and your invaluable, one of a kind type of work.- Elizabeth

My experience with Mr KirkIt is with disbelief that I read the negative review of a client thee months ago.
His experience certainly wasn't mine!
I found Brad and his staff extremely responsive. All our communication i.e. Phone calls and emails were promptly returned if not the same day then the following day. I was kept informed regularly and timely of any matter in relation to our case.
Brad was very knowledgeable and helpful in charting a course confidently through this maze of litigation that I absolutely had no knowledge of. He believed in us and I in him.
The result was that the opposing party readily accepted the proposed settlement.
I am thankful to those who referred us to Brad and gladly do likewise for those who seek assistance in probate litigation.
Brad always showed up in court for us saving us the stressful appearances in Los Angeles and at the required other appearances like depositions he was there without fail.
For a person of faith like myself there could not have been a better advocate.
Brad and Staff "Thank you so much for your expertise and assisting us in a difficult circumstance"!- anonymous

Kept me informedJacob De Villiers of Bradley Kirk and Associates was wonderful in assisting me with the probate process after the death of my mother. The most important thing was that he kept me informed and was very responsive to my emails and questions. He usually got back to me within a few hours but always by the next business day. He made a stressful process less stressful and for that I am grateful.

Highly Recommend Bradley Kirk and Associates
Bradley Kirk handled my case in arbitration. He brought a binder that was 10 inches thick and passed a copy of the binder to everyone at the arbitration. The judge said that Bradley was one of the most thorough lawyers he has ever seen. Bradley had an answer for every question and referred the judge and the defending lawyer to the pages in the binder for proof.
We won the case quickly. Bradley and his team were knowledgeable about my case and the law. I would highly recommend him and have already to other people that I know.

Always Good to Hire Correctly
Mr. Kirk is an outstanding trial lawyer who has purposely chosen to direct 100% of his legal and trial acumen towards various complex probate and/or trust matters; rather than the more common and less complicated civil and/or family law matters.
Brad is exceptionally, bright, intuitive and compelled to constantly think out of the box, thus ultimately saving the clients huge sums of money in the long run! I cannot say enough good things about Mr. Kirk, and glad he represented in an ugly family trust dispute matter, rather than my sister!

As you know, this matter was particularly unpleasant for me and threatened my assets both financial and personal. In the face of crude, unprofessional extortion attempts you represented me professionally and aggressively…By your skill and dedication to my case, you allowed me to move on with my life and move past this bizarre chapter. As I mentioned to you when last we met, you are very good at your job. I can’t thank you enough. I wish you and everyone at Bradley Kirk & Associates phenomenal success.

All my questions were thoroughly explained to me and with a level of kindness and patience that seems to be lost among others. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

Great attorney.After my aunt passed away, I learned the hard way that there are two types of trust lawyers: office papers pushers who use the same forms and insert Client A’s name and real trust lawyers who go to court every morning, know the current trust laws, return phone calls, and are honest and genuine people. Bradley R. Kirk & Associates taught me that the second type of trust lawyers do actually exist.
