Not unless he is licensed to practice in California.

Not unless he wants to practice California law illegally and you want an estate plan that will most likely become a complete mess once you die. Trust and Probate law is one of the most state-specific areas of the law, probably second only to Family law. If he is actually a good attorney, he should know that and decline to do the work for you anyway.
