Law Office of Vidhya Babu, APC - Redwood City, California

My family has been using Vidhya for nearly twenty years as our estate attorney and counselor. I was introduced to her by my mother after my father passed away. Over the decades, we have had a variety of legal matters that were not clearly in the realm of estate law. However, Vidhya's input was always sought. Furthermore, when hiring legal counsel in other states, I asked Vidhya to screen the attorney prior to hiring them. I see Vidhya as a key member of the family advisory team (which includes tax accountant and financial manager). Finally, she is a pleasure to work with and I recommend her without reservation.

The Law Office of Vidhya Babu is terrific! I was referred to Vidhya by my Financial Planner to update my Trust. Vidhya reviewed what I currently had, suggested areas that should be updated and explained why certain items should be included in the Trust and others should not, as well as suggesting why it's a good idea to consolidate some investment and banking. She also vetted the charities I was interested in to make sure they were legit. Her staff is also very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, and fees are very competitive! My documents are now current, I have peace of mind knowing everything is handled properly, and know that I can contact her should any questions arise. I highly recommend the Law Office Vidhya Babu.

Vidhya Babu was recommended by a friend. At the time, my mother was diagnosed with ALS and did not have an updated will nor did she have a trust. After hearing the horror stories of how probate works my mother was agreeable to meeting with Vidhya. I am so grateful she did!

Talk about not knowing what you don’t know! Vidhya was instrumental in getting all necessary documents up to date - advanced directive, durable power of attorney, release for protected health information, will and trust. My biggest concern was having the house put into the trust so we wouldn’t have to go through probate and I wouldn’t be kicked out of the house in a short amount of time.

Both mom and I asked many questions, many times. I was completely new to all of this and mom can be very demanding and pointed in her questions. Vidhya took the time to answer all of our questions in a way we could understand, never once being exasperated. In fact, Vidhya was very caring and genuinely concerned that we understood what she was explaining to us, she has the patience of a saint! Going through this process isn’t easy and Vidhya was there every step of the way guiding us.

When mom passed, Vidhya pretty much held my hand and guided me step by step on what I needed to do to follow mom’s trust. She took care of the title change which was huge for me. It was stressful enough during this time and I’m so grateful for Vidhya’s help.

In short order, I had Vidhya prepare my will, trust and other documents. Whew - so happy to have that done so my kids don’t have to stress about this. What a relief. As far as I’m concerned, it’s never too early to get these documents in order. You just don’t know what life might throw at you. What a gift to your loved ones to have everything spelled out and your wishes known.

I would also like to give a big shout out to Vidhya’s Paralegal, Elizabeth! Always on top of everything and also very helpful!

I wholeheartedly recommend the Law Office of Vidhya Babu for your estate planning and trust administration needs. I will say it again, it is never too early to get these documents in order!

Estate planning wasn't something we wanted to do but we felt we had to do it. We were overwhelmed and didn't know where to start. Vidhya Babu was amazing to work with. She listened to our high-level thoughts and then laid out a preliminary plan encompassing both our estate and advanced health care needs. Vidhya clearly laid out the pros and cons of each option along with her recommendations. At the end of the process, we were confident in our plans and felt that we had been well guided by an attorney who truly cares about her clients wellbeing.

Our initial estate plan was written over a decade ago. Through the years, as the laws have changed, Vidhya has regularly reached out to update us on new options are and the benefits of those options.

I would recommend Vidhya Babu as an estate planning attorney to anyone, anywhere.

Finding Vidhya Babu was lifesaving for me during a very trying time; she came highly recommended when i wasn’t sure where to begin. Vidhya made everything practically easy for me …explaining each and every step in ways for me to understand without question or doubt. Definitely 100% confident in her skills of management and knowledge…she knows what she is doing; she would explain options and recommend what was best for me and my future. THANK YOU Vidhya

Vidhya was amazing in helping us through the process of creating a living trust and will. We came in with almost zero knowledge on what we needed or even what to ask. She was spent the time to walk us through her recommendation and ensure we understood the trade-offs for different approaches. She's also kept in touch and ensured we know of when/how to keep things in sync as our lives continue to change. Highly recommend working with her!

My wife and I have been working with Vidhya for more than 10 years for our estate planning. We've always appreciated her warm caring spirit and her attention to detail. I especially appreciate her ability to anticipate the things we needed before we knew we needed them.

Vidhya has my highest recommendation! I have had the pleasure of working with her as a client in two separate matters. The first was when I was appointed the executor of a friend’s estate and she steered me through the probate process with ease. In addition to being warm and kind, Vidhya answered all of my questions, explained the process, and let me know well in advance what documents and information she needed from me for court filings. I was so impressed with her and her staff that I went to Vidhya a second time, this time for my own estate planning. I myself am a lawyer and people regularly ask me the name of an excellent trust and estate lawyer and I always recommend Vidhya!
