Coulter Tateoka Attorneys At Law

I engaged Robert Tateoka to assist me with preparing a trust and estate plan, as well as to advise me about the necessity of probating a will. Throughout the entire process, Robert and his staff demonstrated exceptional professionalism and made the experience straightforward and manageable. During what was a particularly stressful time for me, Robert and his team provided sympathetic and considerate support. Their approach was not only thorough but also reassuring, which helped ease my concerns as we worked through the details of my trust and estate plan. Robert was diligent in meeting all deadlines and took the time to carefully explain each clause of the documents. His thoroughness and clear communication ensured that I understood every aspect of the plan being prepared. Based on my posi

From the very beginning he clearly explained the contractual process (including the uniqueness in Utah law), quickly drafted documents, and promptly filed all necessary paperwork. When it comes to the law, you want to make sure you have your “i” dotted and your “t” cross, and Robert did that and more. I am an extremely detail oriented person who has high expectations, and I can wholeheartedly say that Robert easily met them. He will make sure you have the best grounded legal advice should you choose to hire him.

Robert was incredibly helpful in assisting my sister and me with settling our dad’s estate. He is not your typical “cut-throat” attorney—he approaches legal matters thoughtfully, with a focus on resolution rather than conflict. That was especially important to us, as we were hoping to avoid contention. Robert helped us navigate several complicated issues with calm professionalism, and we are grateful for the way he guided us through every step of the process. He communicates clearly, responds quickly, and truly has his clients’ best interests at heart. Looking back, we are so thankful we chose him.

Robert Tateoka was so great with my mom with her estate planning. He listened to her and spoke directly to here which is really important to her as she feels so many professionals speak to the children in the room and not her. He was very kind, professional and explained the process very well.
