"He is a tough negotiator from his years of experience handling cases, and knows just the right thing to say and do to get past the barriers and get results."

I had a Probate matter that was very complex and difficult and that made me feel helpless and hopeless, and no other attorney was willing to tackle. Mitch Port came to my rescue and hung in there even when a settlement was not guaranteed, and previous negotiations before he substituted in were unsuccessful. He is very compassionate and treats his clients with a lot of patience and a willingness to listen. He is a tough negotiator from his years of experience handling cases, and knows just the right thing to say and do to get past the barriers and get results. I highly recommend him and his superb legal expertise.

"He knows how to play hardball if needed and is a superb negotiator with excellent negotiating skills both verbal and written. We highly recommend him!"

We had a new attorney handling our case in court, and the person we were battling for a settlement just laughed at him and no progress was made. We knew then that we needed a tough negotiator that was thoroughly knowledgeable and experienced and firm, who would handle the case better and gain some respect for our argument. Mitch Port was that and more. His 33 years experience coupled with his aggressive pursuit of our claim, convinced the other party to settle, agreeing to the full requested settlement that we asked for. He knows how to play hardball if needed and is a superb negotiator with excellent negotiating skills both verbal and written. We highly recommend him!

"I would highly recommend Mitchell Port to anyone who is seeking a probate attorney who is trustworthy and very capable."

Mitchell Port has handled my Brother's Probate in Los Angeles, California. I live in Spring, Texas and had to make many trips to Los Angeles in connection with my Brother's Estate. 
After my first meeting with Mitchell, I was so impressed that I hired him the same day. He explained every step before I had to decide what to do and advised me correctly throughout the entire probate event. 
The probate process went very smoothly thanks to Mitchell's guidance and expertise. 
I would highly recommend Mitchell Port to anyone who is seeking a probate attorney who is trustworthy and very capable.

"Mitch, was very good about explaining what to expect from the process and educating us about the choices we would need to make."

I used Mitchell Port both to design my Family Living Trust, but also to handle a sticky probate situation for my Ex Husband's estate. Mitch, was very good about explaining what to expect from the process and educating us about the choices we would need to make. His fee's are very reasonable and he delivers a high-quality service. I would highly recommend him.

"Doesn't charge "big firm" fees."

Mitch prepared our estate plan as well as many others for my clients and friends. He made complex topics easy to understand and helped us narrow our options so we could get through the process quickly. The fact that he works from a home office and doesn't charge "big firm" fees is a plus.

"Mitch always goes above and beyond when dedicating his time and professional skills."

For years I have seen the effort Mitch Port puts into the work and services he gives his clients. Mitch always goes above and beyond when dedicating his time and professional skills. Whenever legal issues come up, I always think of Mitch first and would recommend him to others in need of probate, estate planning, and trust administration.

"He is experienced, compassionate, and efficient."

Mitch Port did an excellent job handling the estate planning needs for me and for several members of my family.  He is experienced, compassionate, and efficient. I especially appreciated his ability to explain (and re-explain when needed) various aspects of the law that were confusing for a non-lawyer to understand. When any updates were needed, he did not hesitate to outline what changes were necessary and which ones were not.  My family and I know that we can trust Mr. Port to give us the guidance we need.

Mitchell Port is a very rare find especially in today’s world. The unexpected death of my younger brother was already difficult enough without attempting to navigate the complexities of probate. After three other lawyers didn’t return calls or emails after initial consults, we were so fortunate to reach Mitch. He was compassionate, extremely knowledgeable and professional. He actually answers the phone when available and returns calls or emails usually almost immediately or within a few hours. He responds to any and all questions with clear immediate answers. By far the best experience with any professional in my 65 years. I highly recommend him and out of 1-5 stars seriously give him a 10. He made this journey bearable and as easy as possible given very tough circumstances.

"Mitch was awesome throughout this entire process and made this a stressless process."

Mitch was awesome throughout this entire process and made this a stressless process. My sister and I were unsure of what to expect. Mitch walked us through each step advising us of all our options. He was honest and up front and didn't sugar coat anything. With his guidance we were able to get more money out of the sale of my father's home. Hopefully we don't have to go through this anytime soon but the Law Office of Mitchel A. Port is who we would use again. Thank you so much Mitch.

Mitchell Port handles probate and trust administration cases effectively, timely and affordably.. If other attorneys challenge him, he does not back-down and makes me feel like he represents his clients zealously. I would recommend hiring Mitch at your lawyer whether your probate is contested or uncontested.

"Probate cases can be difficult but attorney Mitchell Port makes them easier to understand."

Probate cases can be difficult but attorney Mitchell Port makes them easier to understand. He clearly lays out what you can expect, when you can expect it and how much it will cost. I’d recommend anyone who needs to probate a home or other property to work with Mitch.

"I feel thankful that I have had such competent and expert representation."

I first met Mitchell Port in 2019 when he was representing a friend of mine who needed a will, trust, durable power of attorney (DPOA) and living trust. My friend needed additional assistance so I was involved in the draft discussions and the final product. Unbeknownst to me at that time, Mitchell and my legal relationship would continue. Mitch helped me represent my friend’s affairs as her DPOA, and upon her passing, as her trustee. Then when I needed help with my own affairs, I again turned to Mitch. My affairs involved a probate matter in another jurisdiction in California. Dealing with probate, especially during Covid, was a challenging and upsetting time in my life, but Mitch took me through the process with a positive end result. Mitch’s assistance has been invaluable. He has been kind, patient and extremely responsive to my questions and concerns. I feel thankful that I have had such competent and expert representation.

"If you live on one coast and have a complex legal case on the other, you want a lawyer that not only has the knowledge and expertise to handle your case, but can make it as convenient as possible. I found that with Mitchell Port."

If you live on one coast and have a complex legal case on the other, you want a lawyer that not only has the knowledge and expertise to handle your case, but can make it as convenient as possible. I found that with Mitchell Port. When my husband interviewed a few lawyers by phone, it was Mitch who put him at ease immediately. We had an appointment with him the next day, and from that point, everything was taken care of professionally and expediently. Mitchell explained every part of the probate process with us, and made sure that each step was done correctly and on time. Whenever I had a question, I got a response within a few hours if not minutes. Should I ever be in need of legal help that Mitch can help me with, I would be very happy to have him represent me again.
