Irene Naoko Nakhasi
Estate Planning Attorney
I am a California estate planning attorney focused on helping individuals and families navigate planning and administration with clarity and confidence.
Born and raised in Japan until the age of 18, I bring a deep cultural understanding and am fluent in both English and Japanese. I received my law degree from Chapman University Fowler School of Law and began my career handling a high volume of probate and trust administration matters in Pasadena.
That experience continues to inform how I design estate plans, with the goal of reducing complications and making things easier for the next generation.
