Personal Service

Work directly with Marco Mariani, LDA #231 — 33 years of experience, not a call center. Your questions answered by a human who knows your file.

Probate is a $25,000 problem most families don't see coming.

California's statutory probate fees hit hard. For a median San Diego home, families lose tens of thousands to a process that could've been avoided with a $500-$1,500 trust. HomeTrust exists to close that gap.

"Extremely trustworthy and works well with my family, friends, and clients. I highly recommend Marco in every aspect of Trust preparation."

What San Diego Families Say

Real stories from real clients.

★★★★★

Called at a moment's notice to aid with the estate of my mother-in-law. His video of my mother-in-law expressing her wishes is something my wife and her grandchildren will always cherish. Timely, professional, giving much more than fair value for services rendered.

I met James in 1996 when I was diagnosed with a terminal cancer. He went the extra mile for me, coming out on a holiday to get it done. My financial planner has seen his work numerous times — "You don't have to worry about James' documents, always thorough and reliable."

He is very knowledgeable, open, honest and professional. Always available and approachable — there are no dumb questions with him. His word is his bond. He has some 10,000 clients and we are number 10,001 and very satisfied.

Marco and his team did a fantastic job of preparing and explaining the entire process! When you are signing a bunch of important documents and you are not a lawyer, it is awesome when each is explained in a way that is easy to understand. That gave us confidence in what we were doing!
