Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Many people find conversations about estate planning to be uncomfortable and are later surprised to discover that their reluctance has made the inevitable much more difficult. Failing to plan how to allocate your estate can have dire consequences and may result in being exposed to unfavorable rules of taxation and distribution. These outcomes can reduce the value of your estate and may lead your assets to be distributed contrary to your true wishes.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Many people find conversations about estate planning to be uncomfortable and are later surprised to discover that their reluctance has made the inevitable much more difficult. Failing to plan how to allocate your estate can have dire consequences and may result in being exposed to unfavorable rules of taxation and distribution. These outcomes can reduce the value of your estate and may lead your assets to be distributed contrary to your true wishes.
Wills
Trusts are useful documents that can protect your assets from potential lawsuits and creditors and, perhaps more importantly, help you avoid the probate process for items within the trust. However, there are numerous types of trusts in California such as...
Trusts
A will is a distinct document from a trust. A will is the legal expression of an individual’s wishes about the distribution of their property after their death. In California, and within the United States as a whole, a will must be written and composed a certain way to be enforceable. In addition to distributing property, a will can also contain provisions for naming a guardian for any minor or disabled children, naming an executor of an estate, providing for pets, and acting as a supporting document for a living trust.
Power of Attorney
Estate planning can be as simple as writing a will or a trust, but it can also involve addressing issues you may not have considered. These range from powers of attorney in the event that someone is unable to make decisions, advance healthcare directives to guarantee that you receive treatment in accordance with your wishes, gifts, and business succession plans. Additionally, we can help administer a trust to take the burden off of those involved.

Tax Law
In addition, a probate attorney can help beneficiaries identify which of the decedent’s assets are subject to the will or trust, resolving tax issues, managing assets before they’re distributed, assisting with paying bills and debts, obtaining appraisals for the decedent’s real property, and filing any documents required by a probate court.
